Immigrants with old deportation orders arrested at check-ins across US

[Press Democrat] LOS ANGELES -- For years, immigrants facing deportation have been allowed to stay in the U.S. provided they show up for regular check-ins with federal deportation agents and stay out of trouble. After a brief meeting, they're usually told to return months later to check in again.

Now, in cases spanning from Michigan to California, some of these immigrants are being told their time here is up.

Immigrants who already have deportation orders and were allowed to stay in the country under the prior administration have become a target under President Donald Trump's new immigration policies, with some getting arrested on the spot during check-ins with officers. Such arrests have dismayed family members and sent chills through immigrant communities.

In other instances, immigrants have been fitted with ankle-monitoring bracelets. Others have been released much like they were during President Barack Obama's administration in what immigration attorneys say appears to be a random series of decisions based more on detention space than public safety.

#3 Except those are not 'immigrants' or they would have documentation granting them 'immigrant' status. Since they don't they are in the US 'ILLEGALLY' - so they are ILLEGAL ALIENS.

#5 But the media and the progressives are unable to distinguish between illegal and legal immigrants. How can we educate them? Trumpify them?

#7 There is no such thing as an 'illegal' immigrant. If you are an immigrant - and have had that status granted to you, then you are legal. If you lose, or never had, that status you are *NOT* an immigrant but an illegal alien.
