Amber Heard faced massive backlash on Twitter when she tried to warn neighbors of a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement checkpoint near her home.
Just heard theres an ICE checkpoint in hollywood, a few blocks from where I live. Everyone better give their housekeepers, nannies and landscapers a ride home tonight , she wrote in a since-deleted tweet.
Twitter users were swift to call her out.
Modal TriggerAmber Heard's tweet about ICE checkpoints Twitter damn amber u think this sounds woke huh, tweeted one user.
hi, amber. i love you so much so im gonna say this to you: not all immigrants are housekeepers, nannies and landscapers (not that theres anything wrong with being one) but this stereotype should have long been eradicated, posted another.
Heard didnt apologize for her original tweet but instead followed up with another one about immigration checkpoints.
Checkpoints on your home streets . Is this the great America were aiming for? Raids, fences and police-state like checkpoints dont feel like the land of the free our immigrant ancestors built.
After deleting her initial tweet, Heard posted a photo of a child and wrote, With this human rights crisis being so politicized, it is hard to make a simple statement w/out it being used to distract from the real issues. Its hard for everyone to not be negatively affected by this subject n some way.
A rep for Heard didnt immediately respond to a request for comment.

Did I just go thru some time warp?
I was looking for someone in the forum, and didn’t note the date.
HaHa! No sweat....Had me thinking there for a minute.
