ICE isn't just a terror squad--it's a white supremacist death squad. ICE murdered someone today and it won't be the last murder they commit.
It is imperative that state and local leaders REFUSE to cooperate in any way with ICE and put their resources into protecting immigrant communities.

I won't let our neighbor's death go unchallenged. She was murdered and her family deserves justice.
Guys, with understanding that everyone is angry right now, I am honestly going to start blocking people who say things like, "Who cares? The law doesn't matter anymore," or "They can do whatever they want, they can't be stopped" etc. I mean, if you really feel that way, you're a part of the problem.
