Scared and planning for the worst: Immigrants brace for deportation
CNN ^ | March 20, 2017 | Masuma Ahuja

Posted on 03/21/2017 9:25:19 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Ninety-seven people are at Catholic Charities this morning. It feels like a hospital waiting room.

The sense of anticipation is palpable: Every time a charity worker comes to the front of the room with a clipboard, everyone looks up, waiting for their names to be called. For their questions to be answered.

What happens if ICE is knocking at your door?

What kind of ID should I have?

What about my children if I get deported?

Are there forms we can fill out to sign off guardianship of our children?

In past weeks, as news of ICE raids and deportations has spread, lawyers and charities have been telling immigrants, both documented and undocumented, how to prepare....

What if I illegally resided in their home countries as a refugee of obamacare?

Why can’t Catholic Charities have large operations in Mexico?

Do they care enough to bring them back to their home country with them?

Illegal aliens, not immigrants.

They want someone else to financially take care of their children -— just as we American taxpayers have been doing,

Immigrants? No. Just ILLEGAL migrants, not “immigrants” in the legal sense of the word.

Well, you're going to have to answer to them someday... Why did you rip up roots in your home country to illegally sneak into another country, knowing full well that if you were ever caught you might be booted out - along with your illegal children - and be forced to repatriate, even though your children may never have spent a day in Messyco, and may not even speak the language. Your fault. Totally your fault. Why did you do that to them?

When they grow up I hope they apply to come back legally and once they get here, disown your dumb a$$.

Hallelujah: ILLEGAL ALIEN LAWBREAKERS finally feeling the heat and repercussions of their ongoing criminal activity. Hopefully the ongoing terror they are experiencing over the very real possibility that ANYTIME, ANYWHERE THEY CAN AND WILL BE SCOOPED UP BY ICE, ARRESTED AND DEPORTED will result in millions of them self deporting back to where they came from!

Better to self deport and take some of their illegally gotten gains with them than to risk being scooped up, arrested and deported and forfeit EVERYTHING.

I figure they got however many years of the best life they may ever live. Nothing is being taken from them by reporting them.

Can they? Are the American-born children lawful citizens of the countries the parents are being deported to?

They should be grateful it's not a mob with a rope, which is all some deserve.

18-Year-Old Illegals Allowed into the 9th Grade Brutally Rape a 14-Year-Old Girl Right in a School Bathroom

This has to end. Any and all in opposition are the enemy at this point.
