Someone just blocked me after saying I was deluded by Satan because of my immigration posts and I answered that I had been a missionary and pastor for more than 20 years.
Listen, friends, I know there is some confusion about this, but Christians 100% should be people who stand up for the vulnerable and outsiders. The times when we're not (and there are plenty of examples of that) are times when we are revealing our own difficulties in following our own faith.
Not to mention that the vast majority of immigrants to the US (legal or not) are Christian as well.
We do what we can to follow through on Matthew 25, right? Chris Van Hollen leveraged the platform he had and I'm so encouraged by that. Thanks to your work here, Matt, we can picture these individuals, made in the image of God, and read their stories. We can get on board with these efforts to help restore their dignity and humanity. May I speak their names into God's ears in prayer. I posted Karim's story on FB earlier today. Grateful that you include sources.
And this is when these people need to lay down their badges and say enough is enough. I don’t see how it’s legal for them to do things like this. At this point I don’t see why any migrant is going to any check ins or any court hearing. I would be hiding.
THIS IS CRIMINAL! He’s been here 20 years and married with 2 children. ICE is grabbing decent innocent people to meet a quota? IMPEACH HIM NOW AND ARREST HIS EMPLOYEES! ICE IS THE AMERICAN GESTAPO! When will we start seeing trainloads of people being sent to concentration camps! This is nazi germany all over again! 😡😡

With those quotas, the least culpable will be arrested because they are the ones that show up when they are called.
I hear that's how the same 20 people get called up for jury duty over and over again - because they show up
Thank you for the awareness you are bringing to these stories.
This is appalling. This poor man. I feel for his family.
Yeah, it's terrible. His poor kids!
I hope Corey Booker makes this a priority - Good Gods, Trump has to be stopped.
The Bible says to welcome immigrants and to give them citizenship. Our government needs to give him citizenship
Free Karim
EXACTLY!! People who are following the rules and going through the steps and checking in get detained and disappeared.
QUOTAS? Like Lucy on the candy assembly line, ICE grabs everything in sight and occasionally chews them up or tosses them away.

And the supervisor in this scenario acts like a certain person we all know.
There must be an end to this soon, very soon.
This is heartbreaking, but this is Trump‘s America and his voters are so happy that they’re departing all these “suppose”criminals.
This is exactly why the administration wants to change the definition of humanitarian crimes, because they’re all guilty
Thank you for the time and energy to research and share. Lord, have mercy!

Maybe I missed it, but I hope there’s someplace we can buy that shirt and benefit the family.
I sent a note about buying shirts but haven't heard back. They do have a GoFundMe up here though:

It’s “interesting” that white people overstaying their visas aren’t routinely being kidnapped by ICE.🤔
Not yet but democrats probably will bd
