Last night I saw something about this on Rachel Maddow’s show. They are a big agency but they are investigators in cyber type crimes and other issues. Crowd control and immigration enforcement not their training or area. I don’t know how they got involved with ICE. The truth is we are at a point in our society where each person is going to have to decide what side they’re on. A whole lot of individual characters are shown too at a time like this. I’ve seen it in my own life and I haven’t liked the character some I thought I knew well have revealed. The authorities were going to release the mayor quickly because they knew they better but these immigration enforcing goons are slamming heads into sidewalks before arrest and arresting people trying to complete their green cards. Not being white and having an accent now a crime in this country. We have no clue what’s going on in these ICE jails and lawmakers should be going to them daily demanding to know. Pressure does work.

I protest any ICE actions that violate the sanctity of our streets, homes, churches, hospitals, schools, and workplaces. ICE should honorably uphold immigration law, which means mercifully discriminating between hardened criminals, and good, hardworking people on the fringes of society. Tom Homan is the right person to enforce our immigration laws, but our immigration laws need reform to meet the demand for more vetted, legal immigrants. We have a labor shortage. Therefore, I ask our pastors, priests, imams, and rabbis to be allowed, in the meantime, to oversee ICE activities, and to prevent nativist, racist men from hiring masses of jackbooted thugs to break up families, invade hallowed spaces, and desecrate holy monuments. Illegal kidnapping and disappearing of honest people should end immediately. Representatives who applaud these mass arrests and disappearances should be condemned. We, the people, oppose a racist, Nazi-like state. We oppose Gestapo-like militias preying on the powerless. There is nothing Christian about terrorizing families outside the law.
