Tania Chairez Coming Out for the Undocumented Community

Jessica Hyejin Lee and Tania Chairez, two undocumented youth from Pennsylvania, were arrested by the Philadelphia Police today after blocking the street in front of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Field Office. Before their arrest, Jessica and Tania had entered the ICE Philadelphia Field Office building and declared their undocumented status. Unafraid of deportation, they acted to confront the unjust immigration system, reclaim their human rights, and call attention to the deportations that are tearing apart their communities.

Hispanics need more upscale support as well as more people being involved as the Afros do and are.

If someone makes a video and start off with "Blah blah blah, if your watching this it I've been arrested" with a smile on their face, don't take them seriously. You know your going to be doing something illegal which will lead to an arrest, you have no credibility at this point.

And why must she be punished for what her parents did, a murderer's kids or a rapist's kids are not put in jail for their parents actions. And the bible, are you serious? Of all things you get that out of it, never mind being compassionate and help the needy and the poor and to not judge others.

I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together. i won't give up !

Umm, the bible has been proven to be a farce compilation of stories. Anyway if you so believe the bible, you should know it also says to take off your eyes if you sin with them, kill your children if they are bad, selling women as property is okay as they are second class humans to men, and that sex before marriage should be punished painfully. Now, your logic, to punish a kid for their parents actions, lets put in jail the sons of murderers too given that logic. Oh and it is their not there.
