They're disappearing people off the streets without due process. Like WTF is this question?
A few weeks ago, a friend of mine with Japanese heritage was stopped by ICE in broad daylight in NYC. She was like, 'WTF, I was born here.' They asked to see her ID. Absolutely insane.
The Obama administration also took people off the streets without due process during the Occupy Wall Street protests. This isn't a new or different occurrence, other than who is behind it.
