But don’t say they support law breakers or something, because that would be hate
Protesters ‘vehemently disagree’ with program allowing immigration check during arrest
Protestors took to the streets in Raleigh Thursday afternoon in protest of 287-G, a program that allows deputies to check the immigration status of people arrested in Wake County.
Demonstrators on Thursday said they vehemently disagree with the program.
“We as a community coming together with different faiths are concerned because it is clear that 287-G runs contrary to those values we intend to uphold,†said protestor Jenny Bausch. “Implementing 287-G has led to racial profiling, family separation and increased fear within the local community.â€
My values say people should obey the law. Mine say that people shouldn’t come to this country illegally/overstay their visas, meaning they have violated our sovereignty and laws. Mine say if you don’t like racial profiling, don’t be here illegally. Mine say if you don’t want to be separated from your family, take them with you. Better yet, don’t come illegally in the first place. If you don’t want to be fearful, the don’t violate our laws.
Immigration, Customs ad Enforcement has said on record that 287-G is one of its most effective programs.
And that’s why they don’t like it. It works.
