Reports that Immigration Raids Have Begun

...Rachael says 160 individuals arrested, after denials by the agency.

ICE was picking up parents as they were meeting their kids after school. They're intentionally using children to get to parents.

They're even in suburban neighborhoods outside Austin city limit. Yesterday, they were following a school bus as kids got off.

This morning: #ICE at the taco stand on 969 near Austins Colony, hanging around to catch people presumably on their way to work. #ICERaids

Talking about human shields trying to stop ICE. Said children are terrified that their moms, grandmas, etc are going to be deported.

Combine these agents with RW LEO, Homeland Security, Nat Guard and other groups, who knows what we'll be getting...very unfortunate and scary times indeed!

Can't believe people can be so heartless that they want to pull people from their homes and deport them.
