ICE gets 195 Immigrants During Workplace Inspections


http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/ice-nabs-195-criminal-illegal-immigrants-during-workplace-inspections-in-los-angeles/article/2649313

ICE went around Southern California last week and decided to conduct raids in many businesses. They caught around 212 immigrants that were staying here illegally of those 195 were convicted criminals that had been issued a final order of removal but they failed to or they had been deported but they returned. Around 100 of those 195 were convicted of violent crimes like child sex crimes, weapons violations, and assault. The article says "ICE Director Thomas Homan defended the agency's detainment of 27 noncriminal illegal immigrants and said those people were not the target of their enforcement operations. Due to Los Angeles' sanctuary city policies, which bar federal offices from picking up individuals at the jail, ICE is forced to find them at their home or workplace or find them in other ways". Personally, I think it is unfair that they can just go to somebody's workplace or home and have all of these other people see them being taken away. It is unfair any way you look at it nobody should have to be put through that but that just happens to be how our government works.
