GOOD !

I too have noticed in Texas residential construction sites that are fenced,
And some with gates closed while workers are working on houses

ICE Fenced Out

Friday, May 30, 2025

Recently I wrote a story about ICE riding into the small town of Peterborough, New Hampshire to detain the chef at a local Mexican restaurant. Now, I am going to go clear across the country to Oxnard, California.

Oxnard is a largely blue collar coastal town between Santa Barbara and Malibu. Farming is the backbone of Oxnard as its development was significantly advanced by the introduction of sugar beets. Now its claim to fame is as the strawberry capital of the world and the neighboring City of Ventura hosts an annual strawberry festival. Ventura County, where Oxnard is located, has approximately 198,000 acres of irrigated cropland and employs approximately 41,600 farm workers. And, I suspect, a large number of these farm workers are undocumented.

Since Trump took office again, ICE has made its presence known throughout Ventura County farms. Since January, the Oxnard Police Department has received 51 notifications about ICE actions in the city as compared to all of 43 notifications in the entirety of 2024 and 20 in 2023. Immigration Arrests Surge in Ventura County.

That being said, Oxnard farms are well-educated about their rights. At an Oxnard strawberry packing facility, ICE agents requested entry at the gate to the property but were turned away when they could not present a warrant.

According to Ezequiel Ochoa, a gatekeeper at the site, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers arrived at the entrance but left shortly afterward when they were asked to present a warrant and failed to do so. “We know not to open the gate unless a valid warrant is presented,” Ochoa said.

Potential Ice Raid Thwarted.

1. That's excellent. Now we all need fences and gates and guards to keep the barbarians away.

I'm old enough to remember the trope of "Officer Friendly" who might even be invited to come into the house for a glass of milk and a cookie.

Now, no invite. No knock, no warrant, no ID, no justice.

2. That's very encouraging

3. Exactly

a warrant is needed. That is what Providence and Central Falls Rhode Island officials are going to ask for if ICE detains people. Providence and Central Falls Rhode Island were targeted 2 "sanctuary cities". They are going after Blue states. Would that be correct to say?????
