REMIND ME AGAIN HOW THE LITTLE HORSE-SHAPED ONES MOVE?
This is super bad news, but if there's anyone who can gently caress up getting rid of DACA, it's our moron racist president. This is an issue where a motivated base can make a huge impact; even quite a few Republican lawmakers have been opposing doing away with DACA, and as a group Dreamers are photogenic, sympathetic, and well organized. This is one we can win, potentially.

I just realized something: since they have their names and addresses, ICE can literally just go to their homes and attack them and deport them now and is literally going to do that in 6 months?

MIAMI (AP) — A Miami sandwich shop bicycle delivery man was struck by an unmarked police car — and then jailed for 12 hours.

The Miami Herald reports that 19-year-old Jimmy John’s delivery man Mason Morales was on his bicycle and in a crosswalk when Miami police officer Kenia Fallat struck his bike Thursday and knocked him to the pavement.

Morales responded by throwing his bike at the car, denting the passenger door. Morales told the newspaper that Fallat had been on her phone. He says he knew he was in trouble when Fallat got out of the car and he saw her uniform.

“The whole thing was pretty awful and stupid,” Morales said. “I don’t think I should have been brought in for that.”

Morales was handcuffed, charged with criminal mischief and taken to jail until his mother bailed him out at 3 a.m. Friday. Morales said he was also ticketed for failing to yield the right of way.

Fallat and Miami Police declined comment. The damage to the car was estimated at $500.

Morales said incidents with cars are fairly common while delivering food in Miami.

Yeah, the risk with DACA is that if it ever got ended or cancelled, ICE would have a very handy list of where everybody is and could just swoop in and detain them. Six months and a day from his announcement on Tuesday, unless it's fixed, you'll see mass arrests and detentions across the nation.

Yes, this is the big problem. It's the same issue as the transgender ban, most of these people already came out and now they're trying to pull the rug out from under them.

The issue is most don't have a Passport, they can't get a US Passport, and the one from their country is likely not going to let them travel without a visa.

Man, talk about opposite worlds.

Right now, we are righteously recognizing the horror of 800,000 people being deported unjustly while, simultaneously, pro-Trump people are too busy laughing because HRC made a website. It really says a lot about Pro-Trumpers priorities: "800,000 people suffering is nothing compared to the lulz of HRC making a website!"'

It is so strange. Literally, as Trump callously threatens to ruin the lives of thousands, they are thinking "HRC website that shits on sanders is going to turn all the anti-trumpers into trumpatars!!!" How disconnected from reality can you be?

The message that they send with this is clear, if you come out open and take advantage of a goverment program to let you stay, they will use the address that you gave them in good faith to be later deported.
