California Subject to Statewide ICE Sweep

10:44 H | Topics: Immigration

mexican%20fence.pngThe L.A. Times is reporting that California was just subjected to the largest ICE sweep in Californian history. 1,157 people were arrested with over 400 in L.A. alone.

I found the statement by the ICE official to amusing in a sick sort of way:

"Individuals who defy immigration court orders to leave the country need to understand there are consequences for willfully disregarding the law," said Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Julie L. Myers, who oversees the federal immigration agency.

My question: why stop at rounding up individuals that defy immigration court orders? Why don't we fund and create bodily integrity enforcement teams that conduct massive sweeps to round up, say, all those men who have raped women?
