In a dramatic escalation of immigration enforcement, ICE agents have raided at least two churches in Downey, California—including Our Lady of Perpetual Help and Downey Memorial Christian Church.
I’m so pissed right nowI’m just reading about the churches in Downey CA. I’m heartbroken. Lived in CA for 35 years and we share or I should say the natives let us share that state. Fucking strangers acting like they own the place and the people! We love people who come to see what everybody sees in it! We love transplants. We love tourists! We love Mickey Mouse and Disneyland really is the happiest fucking place on the planet! Mean people No. just don’t bother us you will hate California! Strangers plucking our neighbors and friends out of their church? You blasphemous heathins you’re going straight to hell! I’m sure of that if there is a hell! These people human traffickers?? They need to be put in prison! High security! My god 🥵😭!
Something nit these people and it’s caused some kind of psychosis! I know. My brain keeps trying to make it make sense! Hate has no logic. So you don’t need reasons! You just feed your hate with more hate! Is it easy? For some people? But hate seems unnatural! You have to practice that shit all day every day I would think. If you let up you might look at someone who smiles at you and the hate might get a little weaker. We don’t have to stay on our love obsessively like they require feeding their hate every minute! WE can love actively and walk and chew gum at the same time and I’m not at risk of losing my ability to love. It’s much easier I think! And it’s humanity at its best! What in the hell happened to maga I’m actually getting fearful! I heard a lot of guns shooting last night.
ICE here in Santa Rosa north of San Francisco going to construction sites looking for brown skins. We have 17 grandkids. My family is a mix of Mexican black and a little bit of white. Called them all to warn them to be careful. Have your ID on you & phone number for legal help. THAT’S HOW OUR DAY BEGAN‼️THATS HOW OUR DAY BEGAN‼️‼️‼️. Who has the RIGHT to scare my FAMILY this way⁉️. I’ll tell you who…NOBODY ‼️NOBODY‼️‼️‼️‼️This SHIT STOPS HERE‼️
But what I am trying to figure out is why? They are rounding up these people and then paying private prisons to keep them. So instead of letting them work and contribute to the economy or sending them home, we are paying to keep them but cutting school lunches, and medicaid and all safety programs.
I read the suggestion that the persons being rounded up are being used as cheap labor by some of Trump’s donors. But I have not seen that verified. Does anyone know if that is true?
Because they hate anyone that’s not WHITE! My husband Mexican, disabled Veteran, former President of Hispanic Chamber of Commerce in SR.Born in Portola Ca! Trump doesn’t care bout any of that. The man has brown skin! He can’t stay here in USA. USA is white mans land, ONLY! This is not about Mexicans, El Salvadorians or Cubans. It’s about skin color..full STOP.
My husband was drafted at 19. His dad offered to send him to Mexico instead but he said no, I’m an American, dad, I was born here it’s my duty to defend my country. He’ll never, we’ll never ,leave here. Our family will stay here and FIGHT !!!
Yup. Private companies now running the business and they cut every corner possible! No showers no flushable toilets. Old ripped up hard foam mat to squeeze in with 7 other women on the floor like sardines. But not because that might keep you warm! It’s cold cold in those cells! Remember when they had government oversight and we the people demanded people be fed at least the dietary minimums. Not now. Dry bologna sandwich a folded up 1/4 sandwich bag of pretzels and a piece of white or yellow cake. In a brown lunch bag. 3 times a day.
We must all protest, non stop, everyday against this criminal regime. We will never stop fighting for all our rights. All though, at this time, I'd love nothing more that to sign away all of maga's rights with a stroke of a pen. Never forgive the gop for what they're doing.
I’ve raged about this elsewhere. It was nice to have a nice convo/side convo for a minute when mostly I’m dying with our democracy on a daily basis.
The Churches? wtf? These judges need to be removed from the bench! They are making matters really mucky - now we have church-judicial-law enforcement (?) It feels so invasive! Church & state - NO! Judicial needs to back up! This is not the issue for them to get behind. It makes me curious about precedent. I never would have had these 3 interacting beyond real crimes like children being abused directly by church - even then - it’s not ICE or whoever those masked, gun toting, anonymous deputized trumpfs cosplayers! Heathens! They’re going straight to hell!
My T.V. Mega Church preachers taught me something! lol
So, glad that I spotted your response. In grade school, the Franciscan sisters reminded us that if we were ever in trouble, we should go to the Church; because we would find protection. I have remembered this rule for sixty years! But lately, I wondered about the universality . . . I was relieved to read your comment. And, I searched the word.
In an interview with Homan, a priest called him, “a devout Mass-goer.” That says it all!
Just in case (nerds like me):
Middle English - from Old French sanctuaire, from Latin sanctuarium, from sanctus ‘holy’. Early use in reference to a church or other sacred place where a fugitive was immune, by the law of the medieval Church, from arrest, gave rise to sanctuary.
Thank you, sister Valerie! I have the church a look with new eyes and age. I get it now! I’m not 100% Catholicism but neither were my favorite nuns Sister Marietta Fritz And Sister Mary Elizabeth Prison nuns from Ohio! For the last few decades they were saving lives of women from prisons rehabs and the streets. They saved my ass! Not by baptizing me but teaching me how to live a wholesome joy filled loving life! Just when I was easy to throw in the towel! 👏🏼👏🏽👏🏻🫶🫶🏽🐾🥵💜
No bottom. And empty space inside that will never be filled enough for them! No matter how many people they damage they will never stop! These people are feeding on our friends and neighbors! They require fresh humans to hate on every day. They will keep kidnapping them unless they are locked up in a vey secure place. They cannot stop themselves law enforcement has to help the victims! Real police - please! Go arrest Donald trump and put him somewhere where he can’t hurt anyone else! He’s broken 100s of laws and I’m not buying that immune ty bullshit! People get handcuffed and put in the back of police cars and go to jail for a hell of a lot less law breaking than trims 30+ felonies! I had 2 misses and spent 93 days in a cell in Michigan. We’ll be waiting for him at state line! Nobody has the cojones to get this dangerous practicing criminal off the street?!? Cmon! Don’t we have a dem rep or senator who wears a badge? Lord have mercy.
They raid a CHURCH? Y'all going to hell. Shame on you!

🤬😭
This is outrageous! Jesus would be flipping tables!
With churches and Christian’s backing trump there is no more separation of church and state. I guess that’s going to bite them in the ass.

They are watching Fox News.

They don’t respect anything.

Please be extra extra careful. I don’t know what I’d do in your place. Can you go over the border to Tijuana?
My husband was drafted at 19. His dad offered to send him to Mexico instead but he said no, I’m an American, dad, I was born here it’s my duty to defend my country. He’ll never, we’ll never ,leave here. Our family will stay here and FIGHT !!!

I hadn’t heard that. But somebody is making money on those prisons, that’s a given. Incarceration and cruelty is big business

The churches were always a sanctuary of safety across the millennium.
The fact that a court decision was made to invade churches does not mean it is legal, ethical, or right.
Can’t a higher court change this????
I’ve raged about this elsewhere. It was nice to have a nice convo/side convo for a minute when mostly I’m dying with our democracy on a daily basis.

ICE, tRump, repugnikkkans, bigots, etc., have no bottom. Despicable!!

GD Jack-booted thugs
Jesus wept!
That’s got to be my favorite sentence in the New Testament.
Same. It’s sort of a sacred expletive for me.
