#Undocumented immigrants

[sarcodyne]

(This is not to override or contradict or correct OP) I think borders shouldn’t exist and people should have all their human rights respected and live fulfilling lives independent of labor or wealth.

Moving between “countries” should be easy and inexpensive AND NOT RESTRICTED TO DISABLED PEOPLE >:(

(just because we don’t ConTRiButE enough if we can’t work)

“You think every citizen should have access to free and accessible healthcare?”

Wrong!!!

I think that Asylum seekers and Migrant workers and The Undocumented and Everyone Else should get free healthcare too

I love immigration

A pastime I enjoy is learning Bible quotes to win arguments with “Christians”.

"The alien who resides with you shall be to you as the native-born among you; you shall love the alien as yourself, for you were aliens in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God."

Leviticus 19:34

Hmm. Now what could that mean?

PLEASE SHARE! (I have attached the English and Spanish versions but MANY more languages are available at the attached link)

One way to support the undocumented community is by sharing resources, reminding individuals of their rights, and standing in solidarity with them. Here's one effective way to offer support: provide Know Your Rights cards to empower our communities.

You can print these cards for free! I am sharing a resource from the IRC, which can be downloaded and is available in multiple languages.

Let's work together to empower our communities!

Una forma de apoyar a la comunidad indocumentada es compartiendo recursos, recordándoles sus derechos y mostrándoles solidaridad. Aquí hay una manera efectiva de ofrecer apoyo: proporcionar tarjetas de "Conozca Sus Derechos" para empoderar a nuestras comunidades.

¡Estas tarjetas se pueden imprimir gratis! Estoy compartiendo un recurso de IRC, que se puede descargar y está disponible en varios idiomas.

¡Trabajemos juntos para empoderar a nuestras comunidades!

Sarah Jones at PoliticusUSA:

This story involves 80-year-old Lynne McFarland in Tennessee, who refused to leave a Senate Finance Committee hearing over a controversial bill to charge undocumented children for education or refuse their enrollment altogether. “She stayed in her seat and said she could not leave because ‘what they were doing was wrong,’” WSMV reported Tuesday. Tennessee Highway Patrol Troopers warned McFarland that she would be arrested if she refused to leave, to which McFarland replied, “That’s okay. I can’t do it.” These troopers then proceeded to forcefully carry this 80-year-old woman out of the hearing. She was arrested and later posted a $2,000.00 bond. She objected because what they were doing was wrong. She resisted peacefully. She never wavered from her moral stance. [...]

Doing It Again

At the Post Office rallies, the No Kings protests and Tesla Takedown protests, we see a lot of people who fought in wars for this country, people who protested in the 1960s, people who’ve been at this a lot longer than many of us. Imagine having done the protests in your youth and thinking it was done, only to find yourself in your 80s needing to do it again. That’s dedication and love of human rights. This woman can now proudly say she was charged with disrupting a meeting and “resisting arrest” to defend children and basic human rights — i.e., what used to be core American values. She did not consent to the abuse of others. The Tennessee troopers who put their hands on an 80-year-old woman and carried her out of the meeting and into the back of a squad car have to live with their choice. This is absolutely not a good look.

Patriotism in action: 80-year-old Tennessee woman Lynne McFarland stood up for undocumented immigrants, and got arrested for civil disobedience for refusing to leave the hearing.

"Caleb Soto, of the National Day Laborer Organizing Network, told Al Jazeera that between 70 and 80 people had been detained, but only three lawyers have been allowed access to the detention centre where they were being held to provide legal advice.

Soto added that members of the community had effectively been “kidnapped” as officials, wearing masks had not shown warrants or any form of documentation when carrying out arrests.

Additionally, David Huerta, president of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) California, was arrested for allegedly obstructing federal agents during the raids. Huerta was reportedly injured during the arrest and received medical treatment at Los Angeles General Medical Center before being taken into custody."
