What Immigrant Advocates Want You To Do If ICE Agents Come To Your Door By CNN Staff February 11, 2017

'Know your rights'

The ACLU circulated English and Spanish fliers on social media instructing people in danger of deportation what to do if ICE agents come to their doors. Among the tips: "If they ask to enter, ask if they have a warrant signed by a judge and if so, ask to see it (through a window or slipped under the door)."

United We Dream, which says it's the "largest immigrant youth-led organization in the nation," also shared fliers on social media instructing undocumented immigrants how to interact with ICE agents and even fight back. "Get a trustworthy attorney & explore all options to fight your case," the flier reads. "If detained, you may be able to get bail -- don't give up hope!" Their fliers were made available in English and Spanish, along with Arabic, Chinese and Korean.

Have a plan

In the wake of the news, advocates also resurfaced a rights flier and ICE Raids Toollkit previously published by the Immigration Defense Project, which works for legal justice for immigrants in the United States. The two-page flier provides detailed advice on what an undocumented person should do if stopped by an ICE agent. Among the tips: "Don't lie or show false documents" and "remain silent."

Don’t be home, because you are already on your way back to your own country.

Replace the word “immigrant” with “illegal alien”.

Pretty much the same stuff preppers were considering for when the Obammunist raids on dissenters started, before the firearms came out.

If you are an immigrant, ICE agents aren’t coming to your door.

Sneak out the back.

Run for the border.

You might want to find a stream to run thorough as we will be chasing you with dogs and shotguns.

North or south just run until you see either a red and white flag or a red, green and white flag.

Once you get there be sure to tell your sad story to everyone who is thinking of going to the US illegally. Be sure to show them your bite marks.

Ummmm..... If you are an Illegal Immigrant then your resistance to ICE will be duly noted. You can plea whatever you want but additional charges await your future.

Sue CNN when you get home, they are the ones multiplying your crimes.

I rarely send feedback to companies I have no interest in, but in this case, I sent a very tersely-worded comment to CNN’s parent company (Time Warner) indicating that I was researching all advertisers and subsidiaries to withdraw my patronage and file complaints as a result of their criminal advocacy.

If they come to my door, I’ll invite them in for a cup of tea or maybe wine and bagels.
