The inmates are running the asylum…
The Los Angeles Times reports that “Immigrant Rights Activists” blocked a van trying to access a detention facility. Notice how they frame this as “immigrants”? Yea, no, these are NOT immigrants but they are illegal and therefore have no rights.

The LA Times reports:
A crowd of immigrant rights advocates blocked a Homeland Security van late Thursday from accessing the Metropolitan Detention Center in downtown Los Angeles. Video footage showed dozens of people standing in the street, in front of a marked van, chanting, “Drive out ICE!” and “Stop the deportations!” Some held signs.

The protest was in response to raids this week that led to the detention of more than 100 people suspected of violating immigration laws.

WHY HAVE LAWS IF WE DON’T ENFORCE THEM? Why are churches supporting the deportation of illegal alien criminals?
The event was organized by the Koreatown Popular Assembly and publicized by Clergy and Laity United for Economic Justice and other groups.
