ICE enforcement is a mass disabling event
If you have a medical emergency in ICE custody, there’s a chance you will simply “disappear”
Or you could end up like Randall Alberto Gamboa Esquivel who was deported to Costa Rica in a persistent vegetative state.
He died soon after.

On any given day, thousands of adults are detained in remote facilities in Arizona solely because of their immigration status. The vast majority don’t have an attorney and are forced to represent themselves in immigration court, severely impacting their chances to win their case.

In fact, as I discuss in ON REPENTANCE AND REPAIR, it's a *feature*, not a bug of white supremacy.
White Northern pastors started preaching Jesus' "unconditional" forgiveness* re: the South just as their supremacy was at risk. For them, white unity > accountability, Black equality.

Reconciliation without reparation is one of supremacy's greatest sabotages of the act of repair. Whenever abuse is exposed, it offers free exoneration to the abuser at the expense of the abused, and calls it redemption. It's the traditional and popular response to abuse in our supremacist society.
Leaders of a Minnesota church community didn’t report a parishioner they knew had sexually abused girls for year.
They told his victims that once sins were “washed away in the blood of reconciliation,” they could never speak of them again.
Truly chilling, from @jlussenhop.bsky.social & Andy Mannix

He was protected from deportation by a legal settlement. Trump deported him anyway.
Court documents, news reports and pleas from his family reveal new details about the 20-year-old Venezuelan man a judge ordered returned from El Salvador.
