But anyone from Latin America, Africa, the sub-continent (of India) and people from Southeast Asia.

This government PROMISED the Hmong people and Vietnamese and others that they could ALWAYS have a home in the US in exchange for their helping the US and risking their lives during the Vietnam war. Now they are being deported. TO A COMMUNIST DICTATORSHIP. WTF ??

And despite what they have said, the majority of people being deported are NOT criminals, but people who came here as children with their parents. Hard-working, tax paying Americans. Decent people who never broke a single law. This administration is ripping families apart. Even people in medical situations, who will die if not allowed to get the treatment/surgeries they need.

I no longer recognize this place anymore and it breaks my heart.
