While most Americans turn a blind eye to the terror that the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency is wreaking upon our nation’s enormous immigrant community, their latest abuse might finally catch their attention.
A video from San Diego shows border patrol agents pulling up to a family and tearing the mother away from her screaming children, before packing her into their van and leaving the kids alone and crying on the street.

Horrifying scene in National City (near San Diego) where Border Patrol agents stop a family in the middle of the street, forcibly take the mother of these girls, shove her into a patrol vehicle, then drive away. (1 of 2 videos)… pic.twitter.com/iDvFlFFGun

[WARNING: Disturbing video]
Another camera records the same incident but from a different angle. I'm trying to track down more information on these two videos. They were posted by someone on Facebook claiming to be a teacher of these girls. (2 of 2 videos) pic.twitter.com/mE5uvsC0jG

The gut-wrenching cries of the children and the violence of the act underscore the human side of the immigration debate that far too many Americans, indoctrinated from birth to ignore the suffering of people of color, simply refuse to acknowledge when discussing what to do with the eleven million or so undocumented workers who are exploited for cheap labor and abused by law enforcement before being thrown into concentration camps for private prison profits.
The heartwrenching tales of innocent families who have committed no crime beyond being born within the wrong geographic coordinates torn apart by the sadistic thugs in ICE should chill the bones of every American.
The gleeful enthusiasm with which they go about their cruel business is evidence enough that their mission of deporting undocumented criminals and inspecting imported cargo has long been put aside in favor of unleashing a reign of terror and discrimination upon minority populations.
