A raid in Montebello, Calif., has stirred fears that federal agents are detaining and racially profiling U.S. citizens of Hispanic descent.
And Vicente.
“I know enough to know this is not right at all,” Mr. Gavidia said in an interview. “Latinos in general are getting attacked. We’re all getting attacked.”
Yeah, part of the plan. There was absolutely no way Trump could deport as many people as he said he was going to in his campaign, unless he was going to deport legal immigrants too.
AMERICAN CITIZENS are being attacked, by their own government.
Doesn’t matter what color their skin is, this is an enemy invasion by domestic terrorists. Anyone who’s sworn an oath to the Constitution should be infuriated and ready to remedy this by meeting fire with fire.
Imagine someone being so racist they think you’re too Hispanic to live in Los Angeles.
Los Angeles. A city so Hispanic it’s not even spelled in English.
A city so Hispanic it was, until somewhat recently, Mexico.
Imagine someone being so racist they think you’re too Hispanic to live in the United States.
Los Estados Unidos.
Los Angeles, or in English, The Angeles
I know this is a reference to something. I cannot, for the life of me, remember what.
The angels
The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim
Or, in English, The The Angels Angels of Anaheim.
This is nothing new. Here in Southern California in the 1930s, there were county sheriffs who would routinely round up any Latinos they found, and dump them in Mexico. Many US citizens could never get back, and just lived out their lives in a strange country, their families often never knew what happened.
We are there again. And with no more birthright citizenship? How can any of us prove we’re citizens? I’m as white as they’re making them, and even I feel vulnerable.
I’m white but I lived in Downey for several years and even worked in Montebello for a while. Reading these articles makes my blood boil.
Even though I moved here from Iowa I’m not sure what it is about the rest of this country that doesn’t understand that in Los Angeles, no one gives a fuck whether you’re here legally or not.
I know it won’t happen, but what this always makes me wonder is why we don’t leave the US. The rest of the country wants to shit on us constantly while we pay their taxes? Gtfoh
why we don’t leave the US.
No, as a native American, i can confirm you all suck and should leave.
Edit for clarification: I mean all settlers and their descendants. If you aren’t first nation, you’re in the wrong nation.
You… You want to set some more realistic goals? Estimates put the Native American population at around 10m or around 3% of the US population. Relocating 290m people isn’t going to happen.
Reminds me of the “don’t tase me, bro” guy.
