From the original reddit post
This happened at the Walgreens on Ashlan/Cornelia, but the meeting was set up via FB Marketplace so it could happen anywhere.

tl;dr ICE pretended to be a Spanish-speaking buyer on FB marketplace to target my friend’s wife.
This happened this last Monday, details are in the picture. My friend’s wife is Filipino, and an American citizen. She uses her maiden name, which would sound “foreign” to the average American. That’s probably why she was targeted.
Be careful out there friends.
Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.
to see if she was
an illegal citizenbrown enough to detainAlso, they don’t care if you’re a US citizen or not. They have quotas to meet.
You can beat the charge, but you can’t beat the ride. Or the multi-week stay, or the illegal deportation a 3rd world African country.
You can’t beat the charge if there is no charge and you’re disappeared in the night to an unknown nation.
I don’t think Republicans understand this. They think they wouldn’t be wrong in the first place and it will be swift if wrong.
I don’t think Republicans care. The existence of hierarchical oppression is more important to them than them personally avoiding oppression. They will try to avoid being oppressed on a personal level, just like a communist will buy commodities with money or a liberal will help people out without expecting compensation: the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. But if they don’t escape, then being bycatch is a small price to pay for America being great again.
Republican voters still think that everyone ICE is picking up is a violent criminal.
