This is ridiculous. We have citizens in the state of California who are fighting with federal law enforcement, trying to prevent them from rounding up and deporting illegal aliens from our country.

This is unconscionable. We are indeed approaching a crisis point, in which the rule of law is pushed aside and the rule of law turns into the rule of sentiment or arbitrary power.

I do not want to live in such a world.

SoCal immigrant rights activists fightback against last week’s ICE immigration actions

Southern California activists are
responding to the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement immigration actions
last week by fanning out to businesses targeted by the agency and responding to
requests by family members and friends to check on their loved ones detained by
the agency.


In other words, they are breaking the law, too.

It's time to deport all illegals.

The Los Angeles Raids Rapid Response
Network is among those organizing a response to ICE’s operation last week,
which resulted in 122 notices being issued to businesses and more than 200
people arrested.



Who is financing this lawlessness?

The network, which is chaired by the
Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles, issued a statement
Tuesday saying it’s sending out “legal observers, organizers, and immigrant
rights advocates” to businesses over the next few days that received notices
from ICE to produce employee records.

Members of that network also went to see
people who were detained at the Adelanto Detention Center in San Bernardino
County.



When will they visit with the homeless veterans in Los Angeles County? What about their needs? We have Americans of all backgrounds in great need, who have been neglected by the government.

The network and other activists on
Tuesday called the operation by ICE last week a form of retaliation prompted by
recent policies adopted by local officials aimed at protecting immigrants.

“Because California and Los Angeles are
determined to create safe communities for all and not serve as an arm of the
DHS (Department of Homeland Security), ICE blatantly and arrogantly let it be
known the agency will treat our communities without regard to the rule of law,”
the network’s statement said.



The Democratic Party and the pro-illegal forces all over Los Angeles County are not interested in creating safe communities for anyone or everyone. They only want to foment more conflict and strife to retain power.

Nothing more.


Southern California-area activists said
they believe ICE officials are returning to the businesses this week to obtain
the records they requested last week.



GOOD!

ICE spokeswoman Lori K. Haley said that
the notices last week alert business they plan to “audit their hiring records
to determine whether or not they are in compliance with the law.”

Employers must show ICE officials their
I-9 forms “within three business days, after which ICE will conduct an
inspection for compliance,” Haley said.

I-9 forms are used to verify employees’
identities and whether they are authorized to work.



We need to crack down on these bad employers. Bill Clinton did it, and I witnessed it myself as an employee in one of the dining commons at UC Irvine.

“If employers are not in compliance with
the law, an I-9 inspection of their business will likely result in civil fines
and could lay the groundwork for criminal prosecution, if they are knowingly
violating the law,” Haley said.



Businesses need to hire Americans citizens are go out of business. Americans First.

Among those responding as part of the
Los Angeles Raid Rapid Response Network is Guillermo Torres, an organizer with
Clergy Laity United for Economic Justice (CLUE), a group of faith-based
organizations.



Churches are behind this appalling behavior, too. They are not churches, but left-wing cults with no regard for the Word of God.

Torres said he visited detainees at the
detention center Tuesday morning. He said the network received two or three
alerts about people who were detained in the recent operation and “alerts about
asylum seekers” being held at the detention center.



They are treating illegal aliens like black slaves. Illegals do not deserve any kind of pity. They broke the law, they entered our country without our permission or any other authorization. They do not deserve any kind of feel-good treatment or status.

They need to go to their home countries and come in legally.


“Sometimes the families are in the
dark,” he said. “When they connect with a community organization or immigration
attorney, they are able to connect with (detainees) with their families. We try
to give them guidance, such as about what might happen or what might not
happen. Make sure to communicate with their loved ones.”

Torres said the network knows of roughly
five businesses that were served notices. The network is hoping to respond by
offering legal help and monitoring.



The best legal help would be to tell them to stop violating our immigration laws.

Torres said that he represents a group
of “more than 600 interfaith leaders” that is “very disappointed that the
Department of Homeland Security has decided to retaliate against our
communities, and we just want to make them aware we’re going to be here to try
to protect our community.”



There is no faith when churches routinely disregard our immigration laws. The church leaders should be arrested for this compound lawlessness.

ICE officials did not provide details
about the people detained and the individual businesses issued notices last
week. Haley said the agency issued notices to businesses from various
industries, including “staffing, service industry, hospitality, transportation
… ”



Why should ICE provide anything? They state of California and key law enforcement officials up and down the state have refused to cooperate with ICE. Why should ICE offer anything to the press, to the elected officials, or these left-wing inter(non)faith leaders?

The operation spanned across all seven
Southern California counties covered by ICE’s local office, which are Los
Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, Ventura, Santa Barbara and San Luis
Obispo counties, Haley said. The operation also took place in four counties in
southern Nevada.



Deport all illegals. Period.

Officials with Los Angeles Mayor Eric
Garcetti’s office said they are working to obtain more information about how
Angelenos were affected by last week’s ICE operation.


How about collecting information about all the homeless veterans in Los Angeles? How about the corrupt trash contract pushing businesses and residents out of LA County? I can't believe that this crappy mayor cares more about scoring his left-wing virtue-signalling talking points. This Garcetti goofball should be arrested along with the rest of the sanctuary state mafia running California.

“Mayor Garcetti believes ICE should
focus on removing dangerous criminals and people who pose a threat to our
national security — not separating law-abiding, hardworking families that have
built lives in our communities,” Deputy Mayor Jeff Gorell, who advises Garcetti
on public safety and homeland security matters, said.



Jeff Gorell, the RINO turned Demo-rat who ran against Julia Brownley in 2014 and crashed and burned. Please, what to do we do with these batty turncoats who line their pockets with taxpayer dollars? Shame on Gorell. This man should not be earning a penny.

By the way, Jeff, ICE is rounding up criminals–and that includes every person who resides in this state, in this country without permission. Get a clue, Jeff! If you feel that strongly about this issue, then perhaps you should tear down the walls around your home and get rid of the door that you lock at night.


“Our office reached out to ICE for
additional information on this operation and we’re waiting to hear back. We
want open lines of dialogue with everyone affected by these activities, and
we’ll continue pushing for better communication from ICE on any operations in
the city,” he said.

There are several other activist groups
and rapid response networks working to obtain information and keeping track of
the impact of last week’s actions.

El Monte residents became aware of an
ICE I-9 inspection at Northgate González Market, 3828 Peck Road, on Wednesday
when a picture of an employee notice form was posted by “El Monte Memes” on
Facebook and Twitter.



We the People Rising showed up to press support for ICE and the enforcement of all immigration laws:


Diego Anguiano, the El Monte resident
who operates the account, said an employee sent him the photo to share on
social media.

Volunteers for the San Gabriel Valley
Immigrant Youth Coalition passed out immigrant “know your rights” informational
materials at the market Monday and Tuesday afternoon, said Marcela Hernandez,
deportation defense coordinator for the coalition.



Social media is not going to stop ICE.

Deal with it.

We the People Rising posed in front of Northgate Market in El Monte to show their support for ICE, and of course a bunch of illegal alien enablers to tried to harass and alienate them:


Hernandez said the flyers and pamphlets
distributed include information about what business owners, employees and
shoppers need to know should they be confronted by ICE agents.

Locals are also planning to be at the
Northgate market throughout Wednesday to observe the situation in case ICE
agents go beyond verifying the I-9 forms and instead begin asking workers or
customers about their immigration status, Hernandez said.

“There are more rapid response resources
available in Los Angeles than in the San Gabriel Valley, so it’s important that
we’re here so people know they have resources and ways to get help if they’re
detained,” Hernandez said.

While Hernandez said the I-9 inspections
are fairly innocuous on their own, ICE’s presence in the community puts
residents on edge.


Of course it does. The city is filled with illegal aliens.

“It’s a mental and emotional attack on
the community when they hear about ICE being nearby,” Hernandez said.



Deal with it. You aid and abet lawlessness, you will pay the price.

In the Inland area, about four to five
businesses in Cathedral City, which was officially designated a sanctuary city
in May 2017, were known to have been served with I-9 notifications, said
Jennaya Dunlap with the Inland Coalition for Immigrant Justice.



What? You mean, when a city declares itself a sanctuary city, it ultimately doesn't matter?

YEP!


Dunlap called the move an “intimidation
tactic” as the Coachella Valley businesses are located in the same vicinity.

One business targeted by ICE is a car
wash that is now left without many of its employees, Dunlap said.


Tough.

Dunlap said most of the estimated 20
employees resigned when the manager of the car wash told the staff that ICE
would be checking their immigration status.

The owner of the car wash was not
present when ICE delivered the notice.

The car wash and the other Cathedral
City businesses received the notices on Monday, Feb. 12 and were told to have
the documentation ready by that Thursday.

ICE officials said the operation last
week was not something that was out of the ordinary.

“Federal law established by the
Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986 requires employers to verify
the identity and work eligibility of all individuals they hire,” Haley said.
“ICE is the federal agency responsible for enforcing these laws, which were set
up to protect jobs for U.S. citizens and others who are lawfully employed, and
to eliminate unfair competitive advantages for companies that hire an illegal
workforce. ICE’s worksite enforcement investigators help combat worker
exploitation, illegal wages, child labor and other illegal practices.”



Yes.

Some said they support the aims of ICE’s
operation last week, and believe policies limiting the agency from entering
jails was what prompted the operation being conducted at businesses and in
other parts of the community.

“The law is very clear,” Don Rosenberg
of Los Angeles, president of Advocates for Victims of Illegal Alien Crime,
said. “Anybody who is here illegally is subject to deportation, regardless of
what they have done.”



God bless Don Rosenberg. His son Drew was killed by an illegal alien. He has every right to speak out against this perversion of our immigration laws.

“To say (ICE) is abusing their power
because they’re arresting people that haven’t done anything wrong is
ludicrous,” he said. “They have done something wrong. They’re here illegally.”

Final Reflection


It is getting scary how violent the regressive left has become on the immigration issue. ICE is roaming all over the state of California.

I am glad that We the People Rising stayed safe after dropping off their letter to Northgate Market in El Monte.

They need to be really careful, and so much everyone who wants to see the rule of law restored in our country.
