Senseless Terror Actions Once Again In the Heart Of Mexican Community
When children where on their way home from school in the City of Chicago a
hurricane of terror began at 2pm in the afternoon as ICE Agents from the
Department of Home Land Security began an operative that placed a reign of fear
in the Mexican Immigrants in this neighborhood.
Reverend Jose Landaverde of Our Lady of Guadalupe Mission witnessed the
beginning of the operative and was detained until he showed his U.S. passport
to ICE agents. Reverend Landaverde wonder if every U.S. citizen has to carry a
passport not to be detained in the middle of the street by an Immigration
officer which, under the law, can not arrest a U.S. citizen.
"We are asking Senator Obama & Senator Durbin to STOP these Raids of Terror
here in Illinois," says Landaverde.
Little Village was the target of raids back in April 2007, when ICE detained a
dozen document forgers. "These arrests do not stop the production and sale of
these documents," states Jesús Vargas, a volunteer with the Our Lady of
Guadalupe Mission on 25th Street and member of the March 10th Movement.
"Undocumented immigrants buy them for their employers to pay taxes and Social
Security contributions. As long as there is the need to buy forged documents,
there will be people selling them and people buying them."
Julie Santos Midwest Commissioner LULAC Immigrant Affairs Commission stated
that "American children witnessed today in Little Village, right here in the
United States of America, militant force tactics because of the broken laws.
Shame on the US Congress and Senate who today have our sons and daughters in
Iraq defending the freedom of the Iraqi people, yet the children of Little
Village lived through fear today and watched as members of their community were
criminalized and stripped of freedom."
A press conference will take place at Our Lady of Guadalupe Mission at 10:30
a.m. on Friday, September 19, 2008, to demand to Stop the Raids of Terror in
Little Village and across the nation.
When: Sept. 19, 2008
Time: 10:30 am
Where: 2500 S. Harding
