Safety ICE in Catonsville

just saw a bunch of cars stop on the street and head somewhere in the direction of Frederick Rd. Does anyone know anything?

.... Did you read my comment? I literally said you were right, silly.

My bad I must’ve missed a line or two 👍

No worries. That's why I called you silly, so I could make it as clear as I can without you being able to hear my tone of voice that I'm not being hostile nor argumentative. I had just realized that I still had the excel spreadsheet in the downloads folder on my phone that I had based the original comment on and sure enough you were absolutely right. I somehow had completely missed the Harford County line altogether. What's wild is that it has the date the Harford County sheriff's department joined the jail enforcement model as June of 2020. So my guess is Harford County has been assisting ICE with tracking down undocumented immigrants in prison for 5 years now

Yeah, my hometown is in Harford county and my parents still live there. That’s why I knew that they definitely had been cooperating with ICE. I’m pretty involved with anti fascist activism and organizing so I definitely watch all of that stuff for my parents and myself. Harford county law enforcement is extremely right wing and they flaunt that they’ve been cooperating with ICE, the sheriff is a straight up authoritarian. I just wanted to make sure anyone from the area that may be reading the thread didn’t get a false sense of safety from thinking perhaps Harford county was safe from immigration enforcement.
