I wish the news would stop using the word "deported". These are NOT deportations! These individuals are being renditioned to countries not their own for punishment.

I have not participated in any protests or marches since Vietnam ptotests. I am ready to take to the streets against ICE at this time.

More power to you and your integrity Keith. I'm an old geezer who was teargassed by the police back in my Berkeley student days and got a lot of street protest experience ringed by police. Getting teargassed isn't fun but it's worth it to uphold your values. You have my admiration

Never got teargassed. I guess St Cloud,minnesota was a bit calmer than Berkely. I am thankful for the caring folks in LA who are making their opinions known in a public way.

PDX is another Left Coast city that may be in the administration cross hairs. I'll be happy to report to the readership here what I learn of what happens.

"ICE has been abducting people from their places of work, from immigration courts directly, generating an environment of fear, of panic, of cold realization that our current federal government is operating under orders based in retribution and hate." Worst is yet to come. Donald "The Beast" Trump is building a wall once again. Colossal tariff wall that is the beginning of the end for the system of down. At first the beast will pull the plug out of the global economy. The worst financial crisis of human history will pull a swarm of the banks underwater and the bank run begins. Then the beast will collapse a mountain of debt shattering the backbone of the monetary system causing a systemic risk to realize. Finally the beast will cast American citizens into a system slavery under the name of Ronald Wilson Reagan, just to "honor his legacy" count the number. After the destruction a new world order will be established in the US. And the Golden Age begins from the ruins of the world wide collapse. All of the system slaves will love it. No more cash - just digital transactions. No more traditional criminal activity. No more tax evasion. No more transactions without the "all seeing eye". Outcasts will hate the world without freedom, hope and privacy. To cover up the mess and distract the public by smoke and mirrors, the beast will engage in a war with Iran. Lies and deceit, corruption and decay, dancing on the graves will continue. Until; Black hole sun, won't you come, won't you come... I want to play a game. Time has come to opt out of the empire of filth. Live or die...
