I am a green-card holder, living in Chicago. My wife is a naturalized US Citizen from Latin America. We have no legal reason to worry about ICE, but, obviously, we live in the dumbest goddamn timeline. We have yet to personally encounter ICE, but every single days we're checking placed like reddit and bluesky to get updates about where they've been spotted.
Just yesterday my wife went to practice one of her hobbies in Logan Square which could be roughly equated to like Kensington in Calgary. A vibrant, youthful part of town with great amenities. She got an alert that ICE had released pepper spray & tear gas six minutes from where she was.
With ICE, and with everything this administration is doing the cruelty is the point. I do not know if I will ever be able to forgive the people who voted for this and who still support it.
