(CNN) ICE to begin nationwide immigration raids Sunday
- Thread starter Sagadego17
- Start date
i agree with this because i think laws should be constantly evolving because society constantly changes and we can discover what we once thought of as wrong could be an error on our ancestors part. which is why i think there should be an age and shorter term limits on all higher government jobs because its usually the older generation that's against change, but thats a whole other conversation.
Most people can prove their identity pretty easily in the US, most cannot prove their citizenship status. Again, can you're prove you an american citizen with what's in your pockets right now?
And if not, ask yourself why aren't you worried that an ICE agent will stop you and ask you to prove you're an American.
This is not about warrants, they specifically talk about "collateral deportation", they wanted to round brown people and this is as far as they think they can get away with.
Even if the courts agree, I still think it's not functionally different than operation wetback, and I hope no one is for that type of shit (if someone is, let's fucking talk about that).
p.s.
You don't need ICE to execute warrants, and they don't execute most criminal warrants against immigrants.
They probably hope ICE agents get hurt. This would then further the agenda against immigrants.
its things like this that makes me lose hope in the future. because as much as we can discuss this here or people can protest i feel like politicians wont give a damn and the status quo wont change and if it even does it wont be any time soon.
So what action are we taking on the left. Are we organizing protests? Going to try to help protect? What are we doing?
don't be silly. Getting arrested, and yes, possibly deported really sucks but it is not the same as getting murdered by trigger-happy rednecks.
Fuck ICE
it's super fucked up that you must now be carrying multiple photo ID cards to avoid random deportations

You have seen the state of the detention centers, sorry, concentration camps these people will be sent, right?
Should make a topic with more info explaining this on the gaming side.
I'm going to just assume they have no intention of ever actually doing this. It's too asinine, literally wouldnt even work in a fraction of the cases they have I'm sure.
If they try though, its gonna be guerrilla warfare in the streets and I will be right there with em

That's what I was just about to ask. I basically don't use social media, so if there's marches planned, I want to know.
I disagree.
I think the issue is that people are really unclear with what they're trying to solve.
It is true that removing ten million people is difficult (not to mention inhuman) but that's assume that the solution to the problem is removing the people who are undocumented.
I personally think that giving them documents is a very simple solution, and one that was done in the past and caused really no issues.
We can talk about how to reduce the number of visa overstays (which is what this issue is mostly about), I think there's a lot that needs to be done there, but I first want to make sure I discuss it when we agree on the goals. Because fighting about the details of the seasonal worker program with a Republican who really just want less Mexicans is pointless, and further reframe the discussion about just how should we deport people, and not about whether we.
Crazy this popped up in the news today. My girl friend works for a printer/paper supply company, City of Aurora (Denver suburb) is one of their clients, and yesterday the city called my girl friend's company to come fix their printer ASAP and mentioned having to print a bunch of stuff for ICE. She told me about it and we thought it was kind of interesting, and then this morning I see this on CNN.
If you know folks who are immigrants, or people who can be allies to immigrants, please advise that they know their rights in this country with regards to warrants and law enforcement.
The ACLU has a wealth of good information on common scenarios and helpful contacts if you or someone you know has dealings with immigration enforcement

I know this is Trump's doing but I really dont ever want to talk about him and instead talk about how it's actually the Dems doing.
This won't end well.
They're going to target people who have mostly settled into their lives because they are more "documented" and easier to find, than those who are living and scrounging day to day.
It's so wrong. More families will be separated and the dream of a better life ruined.

Let's say your favorite politician was speaker of the house.. What could they do to stop ICE raids?
It's fascinating seeing people in my community(immigrants) talking about this. You'd think everyone here would be on the immigrants(the ones being deported) side, but...not really. Some really, really hate illegal immigrants because they resent them over how difficult it was to immigrate legally. Some of them have issues as well where coming legally put them in a much worse financial position than those that just arrived with no prep and got sorted out eventually because of how some dumb shit turned out.
That said, I'm still 100% on the side of the immigrants because leaving aside the specifics of cost/benefit/difficulty and all that...end of the day, we all came to the US/Canada for the same reason - a better life. Sometimes it's not even about finances, a lot of the community(and my family, really) actually took huge paycuts to move to here. It's just that things like being able to walk outside without being afraid of being kidnapped...are fucking priceless. That's one thing I think my friends who were born here will never understand, how it feels fucking weird to obsessively look over my shoulder or have to remind myself I don't have to stuff my watch in my pocket when walking in the streets. I've been here since I was a kid and some habits still stick with me. I still feel a tinge of irrational fear when I pull my phone in a public place like it's gonna be stolen immediately. Like there's an inner peace about living here that's fucking priceless. I'd rather be poor here than rich in my home country.
Everyone deserves to live in a place where they don't have to feel like that man. And I get the resentment, I really do...but it having been shitty for us(people who came legally) doesn't mean that we should wish other people go through the same shit. Because it's tough. And I wish a lot of people in my community understood that those who come illegally also have to deal with the constant fear and paranoia of losing it all the next day. Like yeah we had to stress a lot at first, but once we were here we were never concerned about showing documents to any officer or anything.
So when I hear about people being deported it really, really...I guess freaks me out in an emotional level. Because I imagine getting used to being able to pull my phone out in public, go for a picnic with my fiancee without worrying about being mugged, and then I imagine losing all that and it sounds worse than death. Hope to god there's a way for people not to be deported :/

Not throw money at DHS like a certain hag in exchange for a halt of raids. Oh wait.
As much as it seems like it. This doesnt really answer my question. If what you said didn't happen would the ICE raids be stopped?
Call for a general strike from the grassroots that actually disrupts commerce and government functions on the eve of the raids.
I mean. This really cool and everything. There isnt a single person in our government that would do this.. except for maybe Trump himself. I really like it though a general strike should have happened ages ago.
I think our anger is misplaced. If we didnt want ICE raids maybe we shouldnt have elected Trump. Not every shitty thing Trump does falls on the feet of Democrats. Hes the president and he doesnt give a shit and noone in the house was ever going to make that different.
This is fucked up. It's so dangerous to carry around stuff like citizenship certificates and passports all the time, should they get lost or stolen... yikes, be careful
Don't worry, the #resistance has been organizing for 2 years and are ready for this.
I would like to believe this, but where there's a will there's a way, a lot of ICE agents would do this for free if they could.
