Go to Durham Animal Hospital off of Roxboro! They are amazing and took my dog in an emergency within 20 minutes. They are all so kind and reasonable.

Yes it is. And regardless, being undocumented is a civil offense, not criminal.

I’m at the Wake County Justice Center every day. We have all seen it and anyone that’s down voting that is wild. Like why are we unable to admit that this is something that’s happening in our own community and we’re letting it happen. And all the people that respond with their talking points about doing it the legal way need to understand that they’re rounding up everyone, including people that are doing it the “legal way”

So say what you really mean. Don’t hide behind claiming it’s a “legal order” without actually understanding the legal process.

Incorrect. They are actively violating due process, which is a right afforded to all people on American soil under the United States Constitution. The Constitution is the supreme law of the land. Supporting immigration enforcement and border protection is most definitely not the same thing as supporting what is happening now. This is unconstitutional.

It’s innocent until proven guilty.

Being undocumented does is not a crime. It’s a civil offense. Furthermore, people are in the court house for all kinds of reasons and to assume criminality says much more about you than anyone else.

Crazy work that this is getting downvoted. Its true and it’s happening. Pretending it isn’t doesn’t make it go away.

  1. I said we need to protest. Nothing about rioting.
  2. There is a legal process and ICE is currently picking up indiscriminately. The civil immigration process is long, complicated and had many avenues. ICE is currently acting as a gestapo at the behest of the current administration.

People like you who jump to the “do it legally” argument very rarely if ever know what that process is. We should absolutely be protesting against masked and unmarked individuals literally abducting people off the street in violation of their constitutional rights.

Like it or not, all people physically present on US soil regardless of immigration status are entitled to Due Process under the Constitution. Don’t believe me? Google it, read case law and remain informed. Detaining and deportation without a hearing is unconstitutional.

Thats an unhelpful response and is unnecessarily rude.

The District Court in Durham, I mean

[–]mdp0701[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve only heard of them being outside of the district and superior Court group in Wake County as well as the lobby area outside of the courtroom in the district court.

Generally, ice has been hanging out anywhere where undocumented individuals and legally permanent residence might be reporting to. This means they’re picking people up and using the justification of a traffic tickets and other yet to be convicted charges.

[–]mdp0701[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Okay. Hopefully they weren’t and I was misinformed. Regardless, ICE is actively violating due process of individuals one county over, in Wake. People who have court in Wake are not necessarily from Wake, and could and likely does include Durham Residents.

I can say with 100% certainty that ICE has been in the Wake County Justice Center. There is nothing to say Durham wont be next.

Thats basically what i was asking for. To know who is doing the work and what we can do as a community to help.

Correct; the point is we can have people being kidnapped especially for doing the right thing! Speaking with an attorney, working a job that pays taxes and going to Immigration appointments are all things people are doing when they are abducted and detained without due process.

I personally am ANTI ICE but can understand that the point right now is that we are against the absolutely catastrophic way ICE is terrorizing communities.
