The recent raids by immigration agents could be keeping undocumented immigrants in Flint, Michigan from opening their doors to government workers who have been going from home to home to give out bottled water and distribute crucial information.
A series of immigration raids on Jan. 2 by Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, targeted Central Americans who had outstanding deportation orders. Though only 121 mothers and children were targeted in the raids, it caused widespread panic in Latino communities for weeks afterward. Immigration advocacy groups advised people without legal documents not to open their doors to prevent agents from entering their property.
One woman told local television station WJRT that she was too afraid to go to the water distribution centers dotting the city after a worker at one of them asked her for a driver's license.
"I'm not here legally," she explained. "And I'm always scared that they'll arrest me, and then deport me."
Meanwhile, churches in Flint have been stepping in to help the immigrant community afraid of going elsewhere for help.
"We are getting requests from people for water and water filters," Father Zachary Mabee of St. Mary's Catholic Church in Flint told Fox News Latino last week. "We're making it known that the church has water and filters, and we want people who're undocumented to know if they're scared, they can come here."

That’s a shame (Seinfeld)
Because they are so used to having that sparkling pure water back home in Mexico.
This story is about illegal Latinos in Flint Michigan and bad drinking water. In other news, we have a story about Muslim “migrants” committing crimes in Swedish and German refugee centers. But there is a common thread — Western governments are ignoring their own laws to hand out taxpayer money to illegal, ungrateful and in many cases dangerous non-citizens. Western governments are treating undeserving non-citizens better than their own citizens.
Illegal aliens
Boo hoo.
Get the hll outta here.
Who cares?
I have compassion fatigue-——in spades.

Riiiiiiight. What do we look like?, registered DemocRATS?
This could get so scary that they might only turn out to vote once and that could affect statewide Michigan elections.

It’s people like this that allow criminals and moochers to fester. Maybe this “Father” can pay all our taxes that support these criminals.
“ICE raids may have worsened woes for undocumented community in Flint”
Isn’t that the point of ICE raids?
My give a care meter is broken. Sorry.
