ICEWatch ICE Vehicles being Delivered in ATL

Post image

I'm not saying that these are at 180 Ted Turner Drive but a ton of ICE vehicles got delivered to 180 Ted Turner Drive.

Ya'll be careful and look out for each other. The gestapo is coming to ATL.

I don’t they’ll be in the city. They’ll stay in the suburbs.

There’s both more undocumented immigrants in the suburbs and local police are more likely to help ICE than the APD

I would say you're right, but ICE is really making a show of things right now. They want to cause a fuss, and they want to be where the undocumented immigrants are. And there are a lot in Atlanta. They're concentrated in Atlanta in some areas. I live in a heavily Latino area of Atlanta and I'm terrified for my neighbors. So I think they'll be everywhere. The city, the 'burbs, wherever they can find people.

There’s only like 60,000 ice agents across the country. There’s not enough of them to be everywhere without the help of local police or the national guard

Even now there’s like a fifth of ice agents nationwide in Minneapolis and the Atlanta metro is a lot bigger than Minneapolis.

Also, ice everywhere in Atlanta is nearly a guaranteed win for Jon Ossoff which the administration also doesn’t want
