Ice Raids are routine enforcement?

560 arrested in 12 states.
There aren't even warrants served but
simple profiling to drag away immigrants that can not defend themselves. Children!

It also makes the US corporate class billions. Part of why the US will never have a straightforward immigration process is because the wealthiest make billions off of keeping people in limbo in detention centres. Much like Penitentiaries they make billions off of them through prison industries. It is not new slave labour.

I do agree with that. This challenge has had many hidden forces involved.
@Pfuzylogic: I knew about the racket particularly in private prisons but I was quite shocked when I saw a documentary that exposed how it is just as bad if not worse in the immigration detention system. They also showed how people use the system to maximize the amount of time even innocent people are detained so they can profit off of them. It is sad.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow: Lack of monitoring by human right activists. I don't see any improvement soon.
@Pfuzylogic: It is also easier to exploit people who don't know the law, their rights, or speak the language well. It all makes for a nasty recipe.
