Happenings in Utah

This lovely information was passed on to me by my very close friend, thank you :)

Utah residents collected private information of 1,300 Latino-origin individuals and sent it to ICE (US Immigration and Customs Enforcement) requesting that all those people listed be deported immediately. The letter attached to the list of names stated that they had sent this list of names to the Customs and Immigration Office in Salt Lake City, but as they have seen no action they are sending this information to ICE. This anonymous group wants action as they are tired of seeing "[these illegal immigrants] in [their] neighborhoods, driving [their] streets, working in [their] stores, attending [their] schools and entering [their] public welfare buildings." Some people weren't taught to share.

The truth is a lot of the people on the list are actually citizens.

It's so amusing to me how afraid some people are of certain groups of people, of course I am referring to those who collected all those names. These are probably the people who think Mexicans have come back to this part of the U.S. to take back what used to be ours. Who holds on to things like that? Who has the time to think about that?! Some people seriously need more things to fill up their time.

MUCH LOVE!!!
