Gracias Hermano Ron ~ The whole immigration issue is too hot to handle for the current Presidential candidates and none of them have a comprehensive immigration reform plan that would be fair, just and humane to all parties concerned. We should support the idea of at least a temporary amnesty, a suspension of ICE raids and re-build the Sanctuary Movement. We need to give refuge to the refugees, create and expand our own underground railroads and protect our own people by any means mandatory! The natural laws of nature, the laws of Creator God and the humane rights upheld by the basis principles of international law support the humane doctrine of immigrant rights in harmony with basic humane rights. These natural divine laws supercede national laws. We can, must and should be able to explain to the people the legitimacy of a general amnesty for undocumented workers. We need to build solid bridges, not porous walls. Our vile repressors respect no borders or boundaries why should we?
We need to utilize our local churches and other safe places of refuge for those who refuse to bend to the dictaters of an unjust social order because they need and want to support the survival of their families!
The U.S.A. government is a rogue failed state! We need to utilize all available resources available to us: local community education; one-on-one conversations with others; the Power of the Internet via websites, blogs, groups and videos; unite with others based upon a common humane rights agenda and not let the demons who reign in these troubled times divide us based upon top surface labels of race, tribe or political party affiliation.

The raids , which ended Satur day, produ ced 436 arres ts in the San Franc isco area, 420 in the Los Angel es area and 301 in the San Diego area.
Of the 1, 157 illeg al immig rants arres ted state wide, 595 had outst andin g depor tatio n order s and 346 had prior crimi nal convi ction s, Kice said. Those arres ted come from 34 count ries.
The squad s respo nsibl e for the arres ts, known as fugit ive opera tions teams , were devel oped in 2003 to focus on appre hendi ng forei gn natio nals who have ignor ed final order s of depor tatio n or have retur ned to the U.S. illeg ally after being depor ted, Kice said.

The 41- year- old was turne d over to the Los Angel es Count y Sheri ff's Depar tment on an outst andin g warra nt for makin g a terro rist threa t, Kice said. After he is relea sed by local autho ritie s, Avila will be retur ned to feder al custo dy for prose cutio n on felon y charg es of reent ering the count ry after his depor tatio n last year.
In North Holly wood, Ramon Cedan o, 47, a previ ously depor ted Mexic an natio nal with a prior convi ction for selli ng heroi n, was arres ted Sept. 11 at his home.
Cedan o was turne d over to the Los Angel es Polic e Depar tment on an outst andin g drug warra nt. Once he's turne d back over to the immig ratio n depar tment , he will be prose cuted for reent ering the count ry after depor tatio n, a felon y charg e that carri es a maxim um sente nce of 20 years in priso n.
