    Kinda reminds me of WWII when we had Japanese American soldiers and likely their families in camps with all of their assets seized.

    So you fucking murder people?? Why join the fucking military if that is your solution, you'd do less harm in the world just stealing what you need. I'm poor and desperate, too, but I'd rather starve to death.

    I get what you're trying to say, but I just wanted to point out that not every military job is boots on the ground killing people. They also have desk jobs and maintenance people and whatnot. Military bases employ a whole lot of people who will never see combat.

    “This is heartbreaking for me. I don’t know how I can mentally continue working 12+ hour days ‌knowing that my dad is somewhere, possibly being treated like a criminal.”

    My dude, they are already treating him like a criminal.

    Signing up to kill and die for a country that actively, openly hates you was certainly a choice.

    “Having a family member in the military is not a free pass to violate our nation’s laws,” the DHS said.

    I hope more people realize this and understand that by "serving" the state you are also protecting ICE.

    If only we could get people to understand that the US military has been the global "ICE" for decades.

    ICE is nothing more than Imperialism turned inward.

    I will not give a fuck about these stories until I can reliably feel like they a) didn't vote for this and b) wouldn't vote for this yet again.

    The consequences of my actions are suddenly facing me, and now I don't wish for it to happen to me or my family anymore. But I still wish for it to happen to everybody else, so I'm still gonna vote for it. GoFundMe when?

    Obama's immigration policy, especially in his second term, prioritized the deportation of people with criminal records. Under Trump, only 29% of deported people had a criminal conviction. Most had no criminal record.

    edit = cut and pasted from 'factually' site.

    And Trump is paying billions more for ICE.
