You might not remember any. That doesn't mean they did not happen.

I rememebr friends doing migrant support in San Antonio in 2012 and similar actions.

But don't forget that you're just pretending.

I always feel like I'm taking crazy pills when people say no one complained under Obama since I distinctly remember people complaining at the time (maybe it just didn't make it to less left-wing circles?). It's also pretty trivial to find contemporaneous ACLU articles on it with specific complaints.
