“ABC7 spoke to Pertissue Fisher, a woman who lives in the building. She said ICE agents took everyone in the building, including her, and asked questions later….’They was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other.’”

It can’t happen here, you say. But it is happening.

Went for my covid and flu vaccine appointment today and to my surprise there was a wait.
There was a steady stream of people coming in for both vaccines.
I didn’t even mind the wait.
It felt like hope.
