The sooner people wake up to what is happening, the sooner there is a chance this can end. Otherwise, we are Nazi Germany.


Like Nazi Germany? For.... deporting criminal illegal aliens? Lol okay.


Did you read the article? ICE rounded up US citizens (there have been MANY reports of this) and in this particular case, the "prisoner" lost 40 pounds before he was finally freed. Why do you think it is ok for ICE to round up US citizens? Why do you think it is ok for humans to be rounded up and treated inhumanely against international rights and protocols?


Maybe if police departments cooperated with ICE they could just have the criminals transferred to their custody, and “rounding up” people wouldn’t be necessary.


Of course it would be necessary since the ultimate goal is to Make America White and that requires deporting /murdering non-criminals. That is why ICE has these huge quotas that they can't possibly meet by focusing on violent offenders.

But it does wear on me. It's scary. They probably won't grab us off the street, but it's possible, and there seem to be zero protections to prevent them from doing so apart from that they simply don't have the resources to detain every Latino/Hispanic person in the US. They are getting substantially more resources under the new bill so no worries!


The "Big Beautiful Bill" gives them the resources, so the word "yet" applies to the bolded.

I am a US born Hispanic citizen in my 40s. Live here all my life. My parents had green cards when I was born. While I am a citizen, I feel like that means nothing anymore and with my brown skin, hair, and eyes, could easily be rounded up by ICE. They take people and ask questions later. It seems they are going anywhere and with the increased funding they have with this new budget bill, their presence is going to be increased significantly, especially in "sanctuary cities."

At 12 I read the Diary of Anne Frank. At that time, I was shocked how the world could let that happen and so I then decided to be a human rights lawyer. I made it all the way to a graduate degree in International Affairs and stopped short of law school due to the cost. Still, I worked in democracy assistance programs to support countries around the world. All this to say, I love the US and what is stands for but feel so betrayed by my fellow Americans.

These claims to go after criminals are nonsense. They are blaming us for the country's problems when in fact if the Hispanic population in the US was a country, we would be the 5th wealthiest in the world. They are dehumanizing all of us. They are referring to us as alligator food. This reminds me of the Hutus calling the Tutsis roaches just before the genocide in Rwanda. They are sowing so much hate and I see no end to this.

I am scared.

Troll.
Thank your fellow Hispanics for handing the win to their favorite president. #sexismracismwonin2024


OP here, I assure I am no troll and the distressing amount of hispanics who voted for him does not negate the fear many hispanics have now that he is implementing Project 2025.

Also, it wasn’t just hispanics that resulted in the win. It was also 1/3 of democrats that didn’t show up yo vote at all.

Good try at attempting to boomerang the blame on Hispanics. However, only showed your own true colors.


+1

Democrats love to blame Latinos when it's White people who have handed Trump the White House two times. Majorities of every other racial group voted for Harris. Only among White people did the majority vote for Trump. Democrats feel this bizarre entitlement to BIPOC votes even though they barely care what these groups actually want.

Read the CBS article. The US Citizen had every piece of ID and was still detained for weeks and was treated inhumanely.

It takes for some categories 20 years for a US citizen to legally sponsor a relative from Mexico. So when you have hundreds of thousands of Hispanics following immigration laws, there is resentment that people are jumping the line.

When you have Hispanic immigrants who came illegally anytime before the last 5-7 years and hustled to work and never cost cities billions to be housed and feed by some cities like NYC, theye is a feeling that the immigration round up is due to the new influx of so many claiming asylum.

And the new migrants who claim asylum can legally work after a year while so many illegal immigrants spent 20-30 years working in the shadows.

Now add regional difference with Hispanics from some countries like Venezuelans not liked by Hispanics from other countries. And plenty of Hispanics annoyed there hasn’t been better screening to keep out migrants who are criminals who then prey on other migrants.

You really can’t lump all Hispanics together. It really is a very diverse group. Just look at the percentage of ICE who are Hispanic. It is a very sizeable percentage.


In normal times, these would all be legitimate issues. However, Hispanics don’t have the luxury of working through these issues because Trump has reduced it all to brown = bad = deport. There were arguments galore on this board before the election where people tried to warn Hispanics that they were not safe with Trump and they should not vote for him and those people were attacked. Sooooo……


I'm scared for anyone who is not white. Hispanics today-asians tomorrow.....and on and on. This is a white christian nationalist movement. Eventually they will come or the whites who fight against it. Better wake up America.

Who do we need to contact to stop this madness? ACLU? Our congressional representatives?


No one is going to stop this. This is what all the MAGA voters wanted!


No one cares what MAGA wants anymore....MAGA voted for a rapist. The intelligent people of America will fight against this evil.
