Immigration enforcement agents carried out raids in Los Angeles Friday, prompting gatherings of protesters who at one point clashed with authorities.

At one scene in downtown Los Angeles, a crowd of people tried to prevent authorities from leaving in vans after multiple people were detained.

Protesters could be seen throwing objects at the vehicles, while others tried to block the vans from leaving. One person was nearly run over when they fell to the ground after getting in front of one of the vehicles.

    With all these raids, is ICE doing anything at all that resembles prosecution of the sweatshop owners who hired these so-called “criminals”? (Who we know are just folks making clothes for a living)

    I think I know the answer. After all it’s just a rigged numbers game, that’s also why they’re deporting legal immigrants and citizens and people who show up to court for their green cards. In fact they probably hope the owners find new employees for them to cart away next month. It’s much easier than finding any cartel members.
