Kim Kardashian Speaks Out on ICE Operations in L.A.

Kim Kardashian has broken her silence on ICE deportations and is calling for better measures in the organization’s operations. The reality TV star made a post on Instagram on Tuesday night, appealing for the humane treatment of illegal immigrants. Her post comes months after the President ordered sweeping deportations of unlawful aliens in the country. In that time, there have been numerous complaints about the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency’s treatment of immigrants.
In her remarks on ICE’s raids, Kim Kardashian noted that there must be a “better way” than the current one. She said:
“When we’re told that ICE exists to keep our country safe and remove violent criminals-great. But when we witness innocent, hardworking people being ripped from their families in inhumane ways, we have to speak up. We have to do what’s right.” Kim Kardashian drew on her experience with immigrants in her community, noting that they have become a part of the city.
“Growing up in L.A., I’ve seen how deeply immigrants are woven into the fabric of this city. They are our neighbors, friends, classmates, coworkers, and family,” she said, adding, “No matter where you fall politically, it’s clear that our communities thrive because of the contributions of immigrants. We can’t turn a blind eye when fear and injustice keep people from living their lives freely and safely. There HAS to be a BETTER way.”
ICE Operations Spark Protest In Los Angeles
Kim Kardashian’s post is coming against the backdrop of the violent protests that erupted in Los Angeles days ago. The protests started on Friday and have now spread to various cities across the United States. In Texas, there have been protests in San Antonio, Austin, Dallas, and Houston. New York City has also experienced protests, with 86 people arrested and charged and 52 people detained. Other places include Oakland, Santa Ana, Boston, Philadelphia, Seattle, and Washington.
The President has responded with force. He ordered the deployment of over 4,000 National Guard troops and 700 Marines to Los Angeles. He did this despite the objections of the state and city leaders. The Marines are on standby outside of L.A. presently. In response, California Governor Gavin Newsom has challenged Trump’s decision in court.
Meanwhile, the responses to Kim Kardashian’s post on ICE’s raids have been divided. Some have called her out for supporting Trump’s administration despite knowing about his intentions to deport illegal immigrants. However, others are praising her for speaking out on behalf of immigrants using her vast platform.
