In the past a guy with a clipboard would walk into a restaurant to talk to the owner about how many fines they would be getting. That should be all it takes. If you want to actually catch people, you set up at the exits before Mr clipboard goes in.

Rolling in swat style is looking to pick a fight.

L.A. County Supervisor Janice Hahn said:

"The ICE raids across Los Angeles today are chilling. They aren't targeting violent criminals - they are sweeping up hardworking people in our communities just trying to provide for their families. These agents are armed to the teeth and it is clear their goal is to make people afraid and it's working. I understand that during this morning's raids, SEIU California President David Huerta was injured by federal agents and wrongfully detained. I am calling for his immediate release. This is a democracy. People have a right to peacefully protest, to observe law enforcement activity, and to speak out against injustice."

Service Employees International Union California President David Huerta was injured and detained while documenting an immigration enforcement raid in downtown Los Angeles on Friday.

Huerta, 58, was treated at a hospital and then transferred to the Metropolitan Detention Center in downtown L.A.

“What happened to me is not about me; This is about something much bigger,” he said in a statement from the hospital. “This is about how we as a community stand together and resist the injustice that’s happening. Hard-working people, and members of our family and our community, are being treated like criminals. We all collectively have to object to this madness because this is not justice.”

A senior DHS spokesperson sent ABC7 a statement Friday, but did not directly address the investigations at both locations.

The statement said in part, "ICE is now following the law and placing these illegal aliens in expedited removal, as they always should have been."

If they have a valid credible fear claim, they will continue in immigration proceedings, but if no valid claim is found, aliens will be subject to a swift deportation."

"Expedited removal" means no due process. No judge. No justice. ICE rolled in with military vehicles, arrested over a hundred people in a single day, and will send them all out of the country as fast as they can without any chance to defend themselves or prove they belong here.

They knew what would happen when they raided a city and rounded up people by the truckload. They knew it would spark protests, and in less than two days of unrest and zero dead anyone they're already sending in thousands of National Guard and talking about deploying the fucking Marines on US soil.

They didn't wait for shit. They wanted this, and they're making it happen.
