Fourteenth amendment ignored by ICE

Driving while “brown” should not be a reason for detaining or arresting a person. But the safeguards of Due Process in the Fourteenth Amendment of our Constitution is now absolutely ignored by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Border Patrol and the White House. Many innocent people are being shipped off to a terrifying prison in El Salvador without Due Process.
In Whitefish, Rendifo Del Castillo had a broken taillight. No big deal. Right? Wrong! Unfortunately, Mr. Del Castillo was driving while “brown” and he also has an accent. The Whitefish Police who interacted with him could have given him a warning to fix his taillight or a ticket. I have experienced this same situation, and I was given a warning, but I am very white.
Miraculously, the Border Patrol shows up, which strongly suggests the Whitefish Police called them. A broken taillight should not have involved Border Patrol.
Mr. Del Castillo is a legal resident; all of his papers are in order, he has a job and has no criminal record. A broken taillight should not be a valid reason to be held against one’s will and be shipped off to Tacoma, Washington.
If you are not concerned about what is taking place in the land of the free and the home of the brave, you are not paying attention. We are in a Constitutional crisis!
