If you were right, it wouldn't be so egregious. Unfortunately, due to lower hiring standards, expedited processes, and a general nonchalance towards the law, plenty of legal immigrants, green card holders, and even natural-born citizens have been wrongfully arrested by ICE because they fit the profile of who they're looking for. Just look up "ICE deports legal immigrant", and you'll find dozens and dozens of stories about various cases involving it.

And regardless of if it's intentional, if it's negligence, if it's just an acceptable margin of error, either way, if you're a legal immigrant, you very much do still have to worry about ICE.

This is a lie. I call this a lie because you should know better if you are informed on this subject. I assume that one would be informed to make a statement such as yours.

There are legal immigrants being detained in secrecy for weeks on end with no due process, today, in this country. It is not made up, it is easily verifiable with a quick internet search and a look into one of multiple stories available.

Categorically false. You might need to brush up on current events regarding ICE actions being taken against legal permanent residents and even US Citizens.

How do people get away with this kind of dishonesty today? It's shameful.
