Mother and child held in notorious Rio Grande Valley detention centre despite presenting visa, family says
A Canadian mother and her seven-year-old daughter, who has autism, have been detained by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Texas since Saturday, family members have said.
Relatives of Tania Warner and her daughter Ayla Lucas say they were detained unlawfully. They are uncertain about what problem ICE found with their immigration paperwork.
Tania Warner and her daughter are both Canadians, with Warner originally from British Columbia. The Canadian broadcaster CTV News reported that they are being held at the notorious Rio Grande Valley Central processing centre in McAllen, Texas.
Warner, who is said to have moved to the US five years ago, lives in Kingsville, Texas, with her husband, Edward Warner, a US citizen.
She’s certainly white.
So they are detaining white people legally here on work visas. Cool. So, is this Phase II? Next is any white person, “indiscriminately”, I take it?
Also worth mentioning that her autistic 7 year old daughter didn’t vote for this and her face is being eaten, too.
They have shot white people dead already.
Yes but they were protesters.
Not excusing it, not at all, just different circumstances.
They’ve killed white people in ICE detention as well.
Do you think this is where the fascist gestapo evolution of violence starts, or stops?
Neither. I think we are in step 2 or 3 by now.
Exactly
She wouldn’t have voted for it either - she’s not a citizen.
Neither of them voted for this.
Yes well existing in the country means we deserve it according to people on this platform now
But your point is well taken
Are you putting a stop to it? “Deserve” is not the right word. I would say all Americans are in some manner “responsible” for your current state, either from action, or inaction.
Some states allow documented immigrants to cast ballots for state and local office but not federal.
Probably not Texas. But in some states she could be a maga voter.
Penticton leans 50-50. She could have supported our centre-left in the last election, but she’d’ve been a rarity as they were savaged strategically to get the centrist instead of the conservative wank. (Because it may suck, but that’s how we fucking do Harm Reduction, kids)
There’s still no evidence that this woman is a case of face-eating leopards and the blame should be on the US government. Not the woman who is currently being detained with her young daughter.
A Canadian living in Texas in this day and age? What did you think was going to happen? In case anyone is slow getting the message - Get the fuck out now.
I never said voted. I’m speculating that she is conservative.
