Multiple cities reporting that ICE raids have begun.

I'm an immigrant & human rights lawyer. I wrote this on how to handle ICE, the actions each of us can take to protect our immigrant neighbors, & debunking anti-immigrant hate.

@QasimRashid I'm curious. As an immigration lawyer, do you believe that immigration should never be illegal, or that some situations should not be allowed? Not looking for a fight, just the opinions of someone who deals with this all the time. Thanks!

@generalhavok @QasimRashid I don’t think it’s as simple as just focusing on whether an immigrant is here with or without the correct documentation. Many natural citizens would find the process of immigration to be mind-bogglingly difficult, even with legal aid.

Someone who has put down roots, especially if they have kids or dependents, should not be deported. They’re paying taxes and this is their home, and the community is better served by keeping them.

@WhiteCatTamer @generalhavok @QasimRashid since born citizens can't be forcibly made stateless or deported in almost all other countries in the world, I'd consider deportation to be a racist form of penalty.
