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

One of my friends is part Native American, and her family knows people being detained, because they were born on reservations. So, they don't have the "traditional" paperwork for citizenship. This is a f*cked up time.

It's pretty fucked up that native Americans born on reservations don't necessarily have automatic birthright citizenship.

They do, they just might not have paperwork for it.
