I am outraged by the continued and expanding deployment of U.S. Border Patrol and ICE agents in North Carolina. This is not law enforcement—it is state-sanctioned intimidation of our communities, and it cannot be tolerated.

"There's... er..." My new assistant bookseller faltered.
Over by the window, an open book hovered. As I looked, a page turned.
I picked up my hag stone and peered through it.
"Just a ghost. That's a relief."
"What else..."
"Imps, devils, people with invisibility spells. The last are worst."

Border Patrol conducting “enforcement” in a city far from any border and without public justification is an unacceptable abuse of power.
These arrests in Charlotte, driven by racial profiling, destabilize communities and violate basic civil rights. (1/2)
