LOS ANGELES — An abandoned ice cream cart has become a symbol of resistance to residents of a west Los Angeles neighborhood who oppose President Donald Trump’s aggressive immigration policies.
The cart belonged to a beloved ice cream vendor who was arrested by federal agents Monday afternoon while walking his usual route through Culver City.
The sudden disappearance of Ambrocio “Enrique” Lozano stunned residents who said the vendor was a welcome fixture in their neighborhood for more than 20 years.
“There was always a bright light around him,” said Patricia Pande, a Culver City resident who spent countless days enjoying Lozano’s ice cream with her granddaughter. “The happiest times I know with her are from the ice cream man.”
A photo of Lozano’s lone ice cream cart spread quickly across social media, triggering a tidal wave of responses from immigration advocates, residents and lawmakers.

Lozano is among more than 1,618 people in Los Angeles who have been arrested by the federal government since it began clamping down on residents without citizenship earlier this month, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
The detentions have spread fear across Southern California, where some 1.4 million people are estimated to live without full legal authorization, according to the nonpartisan Migration Policy Institute.

These stories are encouraging for someone who has been waiting for over 40 years for immigration laws to be aggressively enforced!
I appreciate so many people sharing the good news!
More ICE please!
Get out!
“There was always a bright light around him,”
Nauseating propaganda from NBC “news”.
He has been here for decades, supposedly. ICE isn’t rounding up random ice cream salesmen. There is something dark in this man’s history.
EC
ICE shuts down ice cream man, shortages imminent, film at 11.

in mexico
Now can someone move that trash off the sidewalk? Blocking the sidewalk is illegal.
ICE ICE BABY
Beloved law breaker. ICE ICE BABY!
“President Donald Trump’s aggressive immigration policies”
-
When it comes to bias nbc never disappoints.
“ICE ICE BABY!”
When we go to Walmart my wife says that everytime she sees someone she suspects is an illegal.......she says it A LOT.
Enrique is getting the "George Floyd treatment" from the MSM!
He was a fixture in the neighborhood forever
everyone loved his infectious smile
He was so kind to the children
Everyone is so sad nasty ICE guys took him away!
If he were 30 years younger they would say
He was planning to marry his baby-momma
He was working on his GED
He was always willing to help others.
Just keep burning the cop cars and U.S. flags and waving the Mexican flags. There’s a reason for y’all freeloaders on the pathway to free stuff in the land of the big piñata to be scared.
All illegals are “beloved” according to the Leftist media.
The theater kids.
ICE responsible for ending the illegal ice cream peddler’s business..
Lozano is among more than 1,618 people in Los Angeles who have been arrested.
The detentions have spread fear across Southern California, where some 1.4 million people are there illegally.

So far, just about one in thousand.
Long way to go! They need to speed up!
Didn’t you know? According to our urinalists, every single illegal, whether “law abiding” (except for the fence jump thing), murderers, traffickers, rapists and child molesters all have a beautiful shiny bright light around them. Almost like a halo or something. Started with Kilmar the trafficking “Maryland man”, I think.
Oh and the grandkid whose only bright spot in her LIFE was an illegal ice cream man? Sure dude 😉 My opinion is now completely different because a little girl likes ice cream 🙄
Democrats and liberals are completely 100% over the top backwards and wired wrong.
