MEMPHIS, Tenn. — We’re into day two of National Guardsmen in the city of Memphis, and already, they have boots on the ground in communities across the city.
They join the hundreds of federal agents and Tennessee State Troopers who have already made their presence known in the city.
“I feel like all the criminals are hiding right now, and when all of this goes away, all of those rats are coming out,” said Rosa Avina, Memphis resident.
“I feel like the Hispanic community really doesn’t have a voice right now. Why? Because everybody is really scared,” said Avina.
“A lot of people right now, they don’t have money to buy groceries because they are so scared to go to work,” said Avina.
As of Friday morning, 224 arrests were for warrants, and 131 were ICE administrative.
Avina says she and many of her neighbors understand the need to bring down the crime rate, but she says the additional show of force does not make her feel safer.
“I had this lady who was about to lose her job because she didn’t have a ride. She’s like I don’t want to drive. What if they stop me? And I’m like that’s very, very devastating,” said Avina.
“I don’t feel like we’re criminals, but that’s the way that they’re treating us,” said Avina.

Baloney
Maybe going home is less scary
“Maybe going home is less scary”
They can turn themselves in and get a free, comfortable ride.
Along with 3 squares and free medical.
“Avina says she and many of her neighbors understand the need to bring down the crime rate, but she says the additional show of force does not make her feel safer.”
Please explain Avina you ignorant slut.
And maybe $1000 to buy an acre and some chickens
Or a taco wagon
The Hispanic community in Memphis is miniscule. It is an 80% black community in Memphis. The black government bureaucrats hate the Hispanic here. They make their lives miserable. The only real crime problems in Memphis is the black on black situation.
Day 2, huh? No money because they are scared to go to work. They missed yesterday and today. The woman interviewed is the biggest bullshitter in all on Nashville.
“I don’t feel like we’re criminals, but that’s the way that they’re treating us,” said Avina.
Actually, you’re criminals.
“I don’t feel like we’re criminals, but that’s the way that they’re treating us,” said Avina.

It doesn’t matter what you feel like, Avina. ICE is treating illegal aliens like they broke our immigration laws and many of them have broken many of our other federal, state and local laws multiple times.
I am so so tired of the media making illegal aliens out to be the victims
THERE IS NOTHING TO EAR IF YOU HAVE DONE NOTHING WRONG.
IF YOU ARE HERE ILLEGALLY-—SELF DEPORT-—IT GIVES YOU A CLEANER PATH TO RE-ENTER LEGALLY IN THE FUTURE.
This part about being afraid is a load of bull excrement.
I was out at Shelby Farms today, the very rallying point for the guard and there were Hispanics everywhere.
And if one is illegal (or legal for that matter) why did you come to Memphis?
It’s not like you have any business here.
Matter of fact outside my job I have no business being here.
I DON’T FEEL LIKE WE ARE CRIMINALS——
YOU LOST SIGHT OF WHAT IS LEGAL & WHAT IS NOT LEGAL, SWEETIE.
FEAR-—NOT EAR
THERE IS NOTHING TO EAR IF YOU HAVE DONE NOTHING WRONG.
IF YOU ARE HERE ILLEGALLY-—SELF DEPORT-—IT GIVES YOU A CLEANER PATH TO RE-ENTER LEGALLY IN THE FUTURE.
The only bigger liar is Quametra Wilborn of CBS News Memphis. Can you believe the tripe this “reporter” wrote? What a bunch of hooey.
Why would anybody be afraid to go to work? Unless, of course, you are not a legal resident.
“Who was about to lose her job because she didn’t have a ride. She’s like I don’t want to drive. What if they stop me? And I’m like that’s very, very devastating,” said Avina.
Well, I’m like if she is here legally, then she like has nothing to worry about...
The awful grammar of this Avina person makes me want to scream..
Obviously.
Everybody's using that expression these days (as for need for US to be peacekeepers for the Gaza peace deal, and all the cities with besieged ICE agents).
I think it would be better to have their boots on their feet. 🥾🥾🥾🥾🥾🥾🥾🥾
If the illegal aliens go back home to their own countries they can work there and ‘have a voice’ without ‘fear’
