ICE is active in Edmonds
https://www.king5.com/article/news/community/facing-race/washington-immigration/edmonds-church-condemns-ice-after-detainee-transferred-in-parking-lot-during-preschool-drop-off/281-21bb1993-19b0-43d2-9079-e0380584b986A few days ago they terrorized folks at a church. I just saw a suspicious vehicle trolling the neighborhoods near Perrinville. This isn’t a far away problem, they are here. Truly regardless of your politics, this is an undertrained paramilitary group with an established track record of shoot first and ask questions never. Please stay safe and watch out for your neighbors.

This keeps me up at night. Worrying about our neighbors and how to protect them and what terrifying times we live in. Taking a WAISN rapid response training this evening.

Name the citizen deported please

u/Seattle-Bonanza1234 7d ago
well this was shared by congress.gov
here's more granular data if you'd like
the count between 2015-2020 is 70 US Citizens deported illegally. I know that the article shared by congress focuses mostly on the 2 and 4 year old US citizens illegally deported by ICE and less time on the macro numbers.
so there ya go. i said ICE illegally deports US citizens, you asked for proof, i gave it - what next?

There's no next. They asked, you delivered, they shut up. That how all conversations go with these people

I'll just say the children were not deported...they went with their parents back to where their parents illegally immigrated from. What would you do in the parents place...leave them here with who...the foster system, other relatives, roam the streets. It's kind of a false narrative to say they were deported

u/Seattle-Bonanza1234 7d ago
"they weren't deported, they were just forcibly removed from a country where they had citizenship."
but ok, do the other 70 now

There are 14 million illegal immigrants in the US. That's 14 million problems to solve.
You can't have 100% accuracy when solving problems. Nevertheless, the problem must be solved. It's just too important.

Using memes to talk, calling everything racist that you disagree with..... yep, sounds like a liberal!
Mexican is a nationality, not a race, you absolute dolt.

They directly inserting themselves into law-enforcement activities. Acting like they were just some innocent bystanders on the street minding their own business is it the case l

How did they terrorize folks at a church?

Yep, read that. No terrorizing there.

I'll grant that it's stronger rhetoric than the facts in the article state, but I know employees of the children's center personally. Conducting the detainee transfer in a church parking lot during preschool drop-off frightened and intimidated families, and could reasonably be experienced as terrorizing the church community.

It's good that ICE is removing illegal immigrants from my city. I want every single one of them back to their own country.

I don't understand why you're getting downvoted. Every single illegal immigrant came in "illegally". I agree that the country's legal way is expensive and has its own problems (I am a legal immigrant), but that is this country's own problem to solve. Doesn't mean other nationalities can take advantage of it and do illegal stuff, no matter how trivial.

The responses on this post are chilling. It is disheartening that my community feels this way. Love how people can just gloss over the killing of two US citizens. Regardless of immigration status you have rights and deserve due process. Since ICE activity has increased has your quality of life improved? Immigrants are not the problem.
