About ICE, one story of behavior : ICE detained Lyttle for 51 days, despite substantial evidence that he is a U.S. citizen, and put him in removal proceedings, where he was forced to defend himself without ever having the assistance of a lawyer. Lyttle was ordered removed in December 2008, and forced to cross the Mexican border on foot with only $3 in his pocket. Lyttle endured 125 days wandering through Mexico, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Guatemala, sleeping in streets and shelters, and even being imprisoned in a Honduran jail, before he was finally referred to a U.S. consular officer in Guatemala who actually listened to his story. The officer obtained confirmation of Lyttle's U.S. citizenship by calling one of his brothers who serves in the U.S. military. Only through the extensive efforts of Lyttle's family and a lawyer was he finally able to return. Lyttle's tale is unfortunately far from unique. Although no exact numbers exist, ICE regularly detains and deports U.S. citizens without ever providing them with a lawyer. And the U.S. continues to run a system of detention and deportation that fails adequately to protect the rights of vulnerable individuals like Lyttle.

Come the legal route.
Americans are dreamers too.. #me too
If they aren't targeting activists, they should be. These are the people blocking the progress of deportation.
Yall can stand together all yall want. Law brakers will always fall. Coming to our country and demanding rights that yall do not have.

Haiti isn't a shithole I can't understand why his family doesn't join him there.

jan edvinsson That's messed up, his family should sue the shit out of ICE!
ICE should not be outside the law anyway. If they make wrongdoings they should be set responsible for it.
