The people who are afraid to leave their homes are the non-white immigrants (documented or not), or other non-white American-born people whom ICE wrongly assumes are immigrants even when they produce passports - they are mostly Somali, Hmong, Latino, but ICE is even abducting Native people (there is a large Native American community here). Community organizers have set up arrangements for food to be brought to them, escorts to medical and other appointments, and other assistance, even looking after pets left alone after owners have been abducted. Those people are justifiably frightened, but the larger community that is trying to look after them is not.
