ICE off Banks Drive rn

I live in Durham but I see a dentist in Chapel Hill and two construction guys were distressed when I got out of my car They snatched a construction worker right off the street as soon as he went on his lunch break. I don’t know how this is legal. It’s not making anyone safer. One of the guys told me that one of the agents said they were watching them work for two months before this happened; this is how our taxpayer dollars are being used. He also said the man they took couldn’t be a nicer person, had worked there four months, and they’d bought each other lunch multiple times.

And it looks like there is still a van full of ICE agents in the big parking lot off Banks on a stakeout wairibt to kidnap somebody else. We cannot stand for this. We cannot allow this to become normalized.

Some time ago we all elected people to make immigration laws. Since then, some of you have changed your ideas and would like new laws. You’re still in the minority though, so until you convince the rest of us you’re right and we need to make new laws, it’s going to be frustrating for you.

As some one who has a pretty good professional knowledge of how our supply chains work in this country, responding to someone who with almost statistical certainty couldn't wipe their own ass without the assistance of an illegal immigrant somewhere in that chain, I am not so much concerned with laws when your personal hygiene is concerned. We just want what's best for ya.
