Police arrested about 100 clergy demonstrating against immigration enforcement at Minnesota’s largest airport Friday, and several thousand gathered in downtown Minneapolis despite Arctic temperatures to protest the Trump administration’s crackdown.
The protests are part of a broader movement against Donald Trump’s increased immigration enforcement across the state, with labor unions, progressive organizations and clergy urging Minnesotans to stay away from work, school and even shops.
The faith leaders gathered at the airport to protest deportation flights and urge airlines to call for an end to to what the Department of Homeland Security has called its largest-ever immigration enforcement operation.
It’s not about immigration enforcement
Yeah, seriously, the media are so complicit in all this.
Killing people in the street, kidnapping people from their cars, detaining kids and documented immigrants, raiding homes without warrants, dragging people out of their homes in their underwear in sub-zero temperatures, not letting lawmakers inside concentration camps, the fact that there are concentration camps at all, etc… that’s what people are protesting and those things are not ‘enforcement.’
They’re even calling those they arrest who aren’t their original targets, “collaterals.”
In -33 with windchill? Literal warriors!! So much respect and much support from The Netherlands!! I wish for every American to join you all!
This title can be read as intended, but also immigration enforcement in subzero temperatures is inhumane and should be rallied against
Clergy doing something right, for a change. They need to be louder. Much LOUDER.
And subzero temperatures in the States is colder than weather in any other country.
Tomorrow will be just like Thursday.
