Every single one who was arrested should be immediately deported
(WRAL) More than 100 people rallied Thursday afternoon outside the Governor’s Mansion, including some who blocked the street in front of the building, in response to Gov. Pat McCrory’s decision to sign into law a proposal that prohibits any North Carolina county or municipality from restricting local law enforcement’s ability to cooperate with federal immigration officials.
House Bill 318, dubbed the Protect North Carolina Workers Act, also requires state and local government agencies to use the E-Verify system to check the legal status of job applicants and contractors, bars government agencies or law enforcement from using consular or embassy documents to verify someone’s identity or residence and limits food assistance for able-bodied, childless adults who are unemployed.
Six people were arrested after chaining themselves together and sitting in the middle of Blount Street, forcing Raleigh police to divert traffic for more than two hours. A band played music, and crowds on the sidewalk chanted, “Let’s stop the hate. We make America great,” and “We pay taxes too.”
Six were arrested, all with Latino names.
“The immigrant community is waking up,†said Maria Carmen Rodriguez, an undocumented mother of three who has lived and worked in Raleigh for over 10 years. “We are losing our fear to raise our voices and confront this racism, face to face.â€
She should be deported immediately. If these illegals knew there would be consequences for their illegal actions, they might think twice.
