All this going on with ICE and stuff...

How do you feel about it? i heard there were protesters in Boston today. I know I have no clue what ICE is doing. Why do people think the illegals are being mistreated? ( I mean besides obviously the hardship of being deported.)

ICE has targeted ALL Latinos, regardless of immigration status. Quite a few people mishandled by them and basically forced in a concentration camp were either citizens or legal residents.

Also - targeting a fruit vendor is not going after a violent criminal. That's why Habeas Corpus (Due Process) is there, which is a right for ALL people on US soil regardless of immigration status as per the Constitution.

Also - undocumented immigration is a civil, not criminal matter. It's a misdemeanor, not a felony.

@basilfawlty89 the criminals he mentioned were violent felons. i have heard of ICE detaining factory workers in the news though. so you call it a concentration camp. you think they are being killed? thats a serious accusation.

@Penny Concentration camps aren't the same as death camps, although they often become death camps.

Concentration camps predate the Germans.
The British put Boers in concentration camps in South Africa.

Germans started with concentration camps for political prisoners before turning them into death camps.

Several human rights organizations and scholars of genocide have warned the US is increasingly moving to genocide.
