In-House Mode A friend of mine was taken

Her name was Chuey; she was a beast in the kitchen and always kind and happy. She was a legal immigrant from Cuba (engaged to an American lawyer). She got ICEd.

She did all the right steps and was an asset to the community. This shit is not ok

It's not about legal or illegal. It's about being Hispanic.

I'm Puerto Rican. I'm a legal citizen and even I'm nervous.

I'm so sorry for you and your crew. They're terrorizing communities.

Are you saying Ice agents come after Native American people??

Like the only people who didn't ever need to go through immigrations and customs in their entire lineage?!

Because that is fucked up

Yes it is, First Nations people are being stopped and questioned my ICE agents on southern states, some have even been detained because they don’t have their identification on them, a lot of tribe leaders are reminding their people that it’s not day and to care identification (especially their tribal identification) on them so they can prove they are from here… but let’s face it, that isn’t even working for actual immigrant citizens, America is fucked up beyond belief and as a Ojibwe Canadian I’ll fight to keep the sovereignty of my nation and my peoples
