(31,975 posts)1. That is frightening. They told her they were police, but I didn't see
them show any id, not to mention they hid their faces. They just snatched her off the street!

She expressed an opinion about Gaza. She didn't do anything violent or illegal in support of that opinion. She is in the country on a valid student visa. It's a thin line between this and going after American citizens whose opinions they don't like.
I read online that they've already transported her to Louisiana. She hasn't had any type of hearing.

This should not be OK in America. But here we are.
All those faux patriots wrapping themselves in the flag and so called christians should be ashamed. But they don't know shame. I wish I believed in hell, if anyone deserved to go to hell, its trump voters.
