FIRE: Ice Management Raid

FIRE Raids ICE Management Meeting, Delivers Notice of Deportation
of ICE from Flagstaff

Flagstaff. AZ -- At approximately 10AM on Thursday December 4th,
Flagstaff Immigrant Rights Enforcement (FIRE) confronted
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in a daring raid, serving
a notice of deportation to ICE representatives at an ICE Management
meeting. FIRE agents pinpointed the location of the ICE management
meeting at the Flagstaff Radisson Hotel in the Kaibab Meeting Room
and staged the raid. FIRE agent Del Fuego read the notice of
deportation to more than 15 ICE associated criminals, some of whom
appeared to possibly be illegal immigrants themselves, as they were
not Indigenous People. Agent Del Fuego called for the immediate
withdrawal of ICE from the Flagstaff community and notified ICE of
the cease and desist order for all future raids.

FIRE will continue supporting and enforcing immigrant rights where
they are violated with the exception of established immigrant
"settlers" or "colonizers" who have been benefitting from the
exploitation of Indigenous People's lands. In addition, locations
believed to be harboring ICE criminals, associates, and illegal
settlers on indigenous lands can expect future FIRE raids. FIRE has
credible intelligence that ICE absconders use condominiums, country
clubs, law enforcement facilities, steakhouses, stretch limousines,
luxury hotels, beach resorts, ski resorts, martini bars,
intelligence facilities, etc., as bases of operation. These
settlers will be brought to justice. No human is illegal.

NOTICE OF DEPORTATION:

Notice served on this, the 4th day of December, 2008 by Flagstaff
Immigrant Rights Enforcement (FIRE) for the immediate deportation
from the Flagstaff area of Immigration and Customs Enforcement
(ICE) officers and officials.

FIRE charges ICE with the following activities deemed criminal and
in violation of human rights. These activities include but are not
limited to:

◆ Terrorizing entire communities resulting in the destruction of
over 34,000 families within the last year alone, including most
recently, 16 persons within the immediate Flagstaff area.
◆ Causing fear that has extended into the hearts of our community's
children, who, due to your presence, live in constant trauma of
returning to an empty home.
◆ Taking no meaningful measures to ensure the well-being of those
impacted by family members' deportation.
◆ Perpetuating institutionalized racism and practicing racial
profiling.
◆ Aiding and abetting border militarization on both sides of the US-
Mexico border.
◆ Creating and upholding the myth of "illegal human beings".
◆ Enforcing and benefitting from a global economic system that
criminalizes labor and creates deathly low wages.
◆ Enforcing immigration policies on borders drawn on indigenous
lands.
◆ Misappropriation of taxpayer funds for aforementioned terrorist
activity while education, health care, and housing services
collapse.

I think the intensity and hatred filled comments for undocumented people in these posts says it all.

61,000 U.S. citizens murdered over what timeframe? Where is this data from? I'm not ignorant, but I am lost when you say every illegal alien is committing these sort crimes, in high amounts, with no other information or references.

[BunkerGearGal]

WHY did these federal agents not just arrest these clowns and lock them up? The sanctimonious self-hating guilt filled moron who was spokeman for the group was, admittedly, very fun to laugh at in all of her grandiose smugness. Illegal aliens are just that, ILLEGAL. They should be deported.

@ptraiders40 fuck that shit we should all have equals rights even if your illegle, damn cubans come from cuba illegily and they get to stay in america thats not fair, its bullshit, why aint geetin the same rights

[ptraiders40]

@pimppappi702 Hey idiot, he wouldn't have got deported if he wasn't illegal. Illegal aliens are not protected under the constitution.

Go read a book.

[ptraiders40]

Wow, this is the gayest thing I've ever seen. A bunch of nerdy kids with too much time on their hands. Send all the tonks back to Mexico.

[unrulyearth]

[pimppappi702]

FUCK ICE they beat my uncle and made him sign a deportation paper by force when he said no, thats unconstitutional, everyone in america has rights, read the bill of right you morons, he had no crimminal record! FIRE needs to take control of the united states and deport all these members from Ice and put it in the bill!

[eric777100763]

The ICE officers did great!! Who are these hippi FIRE ppl??

[nic190]

does anybody know how many crimes a person has to commit a crime to get deported?,found out a old friend was picked up by i.c.e. after 3 or 4 drug arrests.i think he has a green card? what are chances we will be deported?

[NauiBitchtl]

Well, they were wearing jail jumpsuits. But Sheriff Joe makes them wear pink.

Now, you know, if you're illegal trespassing is not a crime.

At least they didn't come in throwing rocks.

@mykolozano there are no anti-immigrant people. There are how ever anti-illegal immigrant people. The person who breaks through our border and enters our country is commiting a criminal offence its known as a B&E breaking and entering. If I were to break into your house because I was cold and hungry and wanted food and warmth dont make it OK. If they want work they can find it in their own country, or come here LEGALLY.
