It was the kind of sign one might expect to see at a protest in an affluent city.The protester was among several hundred people who marched from the Manhattan Beach Pier to the Hermosa Beach Pier on Sunday, June 29, in support of immigrants and undocumented people targeted by federal ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) raids. [c

The Beach Cities live in a majority White Bubble so it’s counterintuitive to see them picketing in the streets.

Why do you give these people the time of day. What part of illegal do they not understand. If you illegally come into the country, you should be deported. ICE are totally right by arresting these illegal people. Please do print any more stories about supporters of law breakers it leads to anarchy.

Wake up, and stop ignoring what is actually happening. You are completely missing the problem and the real reason for these protests because you’re deliberately choosing ignorance. Knock it off.

What’s the real reason for protesting the enforcement of immigration law?

It does not stop with Illegal. They are going after all immigrants…H1B, religious, etc… irrespective of legality. Cruelty gets accepted under the guise of enforcement. I’ve been in the country on an H1B and a member of the southbay for the last 20 years. A bunch of my colleagues, we refused entry into the country when traveling for work, because the officer at the port of entry did not think they “deserve” in the country. They all had US citizen kids and were high tax paying members of society.
It should not matter where you were born, every human deserves to be treated respectfully

>They are going after all immigrants

Can someone fact-check this for me? I’ve heard others say this on social media, etc., but it seems like such an obvious and blatant violation of Federal Law that it would be easy for a court to step in and put a stop to the ICE raids, but so far that hasn’t happened. It really makes me question whether or not this is a true statement.

It’s one thing to deport an undocumented back to their home country, but to deport them to Sudan, Libya, and the notorious El Salvador gulag. These prisons are places are known for torture. It’s one thing to remove the ‘worst or the worst’ but to take people who are just seeking a better life to a gulag makes the US no better than Nazi Germany. And now we have our first concentration camp in FL. Wake up people! If you think it can’t happen to you, think again. EVERYONE is on the list, it’s just how far down the list you falls. WAKE UP PEOPLE!
