Late comment but, WTF

The Laken Riley Act is a United States law that requires the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to detain illegal immigrants admitting to, charged with, or convicted of theft-related crimes, assaulting a police officer, or a crime that results in death or serious bodily injury like drunk driving.

The bill was introduced following the murder of Laken Riley by an illegal immigrant, who had previously been cited for shoplifting, on the campus of the University of Georgia in Athens, Georgia.

So, one undocumented immigrant did a bad thing, now all immigrants are targeted?

What next? They find One CCP spy and they pull the ~~Chinese~~ Asian Exclusion Act?

This shit is fucked. My ass is about to get deported because this fucked up administration will falsely accuse me of being a CCP spy just because I have Chinese ancestry. And I doubt my US Citizenship will mean anything in this fascist court.

Resist. Learn about your vulnerable neighbors. Join an ICE Watch.

Is there a list anywhere? Searching for it I found a tool that hasn't been updated since 2022 to show raids on a map. It's hard to search because there is a wristwatch brand called ice.

Heh. Well as a 3+ generation citizen I'm sure glad that will never be pointed at me!

And because it's necessary in this day and age, /s

"ICE has all these powerful tools. Why aren't we using them to..." is something that will easily be said at several points in the future.
