Let's be honest. They'll detain anyone who looks like they can't prove citizenship on the spot in the vicinity. Absolutely despicable. What can we do to stop or at least impede this?

A couple things:
- ICE operates under rules that say they're not supposed to detain people at church. So encourage people to spend raid day at church.
- Don't help out. Give the absolute minimum, don't provide information, and refuse to give access on the basis of an administrative warrant (one not signed by a judge)
Edit: since I posted this, the rules ICE operates under have been changed to allow raids at churches.
At a bare minimum, if you get questioned about a neighbor or coworker, "I don't know" and "I can't recall" are your go-to's, no matter how benign the question may seem.
Smash up the busses used to transport them
Sure would be inconvenient if a dozens of citizens without IDs showed up to the locations...
