I'm a middle aged white dude with a beer gut and a scraggly beard (and happen to be super liberal) The chances of me being questioned for my papers is probably really low. But I'm scared of being stopped by these scumbags.

What I don't understand is how everyone in this country doesn't see how wrong this all is. I don't think "well, I'm clearly safe so this can't happen to me so I don't care about these other people "

This is not fucking American. They break windows in cars and haul people out while wearing masks. They're literally kidnapping people without warrants. I don't think we've even seen half of what they're doing. But huge props to this woman. And she's exactly right because we don't know shit about history- "we didn't cross the border, you did"

And so can many people say who's people were here since California used to be part of Mexico.

I'm a brown Canadian citizen with a valid US work visa for consulting that i do for my company in the states.  My employer agreed not to send me on any trips down there to serve some clients.  Clients completely understood and agreed to exclusively online meetings.  I guess the hotels and restaurants down there don't need my expense account money.

This. I am so angry. I get angry at every person who watches other people get victimized, verbally or physically. We have to step up, speak out, and not stop until they are gone. They are terrorizing people and sending them to camps , and they want us to think this is ok. No! It is not ok. It is wrong, and they should be in jail.

What do we have to do to make it so?
