For weeks in the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the mother has watched her 6-year-old son’s health decline, Mukherjee said. He recently underwent chemotherapy treatment for leukemia and because of his arrest missed his check-in doctor’s appointment, Mukherjee said.
“He’s easily bruising. He has bone pain. He looks pale," Mukherjee said, adding that he has also lost his appetite. "His mom is terrified that these are symptoms that his leukemia situation might be deteriorating.”
. . . During the family’s hearing, the mother tried to tell the judge that they wished to continue their cases for asylum, Mukherjee said. Homeland Security moved to dismiss their cases, and the judge immediately granted that motion.
When they stepped out of the courtroom, they found men in civilian clothing believed to be ICE agents who arrested the family, Mukherjee said. They spent about 11 hours at an immigrant processing center in Los Angeles and were each only given an apple, a small packet of cookies, a juice box and water.
It doesn’t matter what they think. People knowing the names of the fascist pieces of shit just turns up the heat on them.
They might not feel actual ‘shame’ but when people start “inconveniencing” them by refusing to let them go about their day as if they are good people then that is a win albeit a small one.
Look at the american nazis already afraid to go home because of death threats.
