We have a Federal Government run amuck

[SHRED]

Gaston Cazares moved to San Diego illegally when he was 17 and has been here for nearly 30 years. His two children are U.S. citizens. He is a Mexican national who checked in annually with immigration officials.
That routine changed when President Donald Trump was elected. Under the new administration's policies and expanded criteria for deportation, ICE officials told Cazares he was going to be deported.

3. I saw this on the local news this AM and thought

about all the people I know who are dealing with this BS. I know a lot of teachers in the San Diego Unified School District and the tension is naturally effecting the students' lives. The superintendent won't allow ICE or other officials onto school sites but this is very limited sanctuary for families. I feel so frustrated and helpless every time I hear these very real, personal stories which is quite often.

4. And what exactly will be accomplished by deporting this person?

What besides pain and distrust will it bring to this family and ultimately all of us?

5. Authoritarians and their regimes love this kind of stuff.

Spreading hatred and inflicting pain is the essence of who and what they are.
