ICE Comes to the American Heartland

This gets dark, just as a fair warning. This is our government doing this to its own residents. I am less than thrilled.

Magdalena fought hard for her American dream. Now, it is dying on the side of a road near the Shakopee, Hy-Vee supermarket.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents surround her car with handguns and rifles drawn. They are all wearing masks.

More agents swarm the car in front of her. It holds her two teenage daughters. They are both American citizens and on their way to school. An ICE agent starts banging on her windshield.

She doesn’t know what to do.

The agent with the rifle demands Magdalena’s papers.

“Roll down the fucking window!”

He stares her down.

Magdalena is frightened. All she can do is beg for her children.

“Let them go. They are citizens. Please.”
