ICE, BCP needs to be stopped

Dear Editor,

Let’s be honest.  ICE’a and BCP’s behavior in Minnesota and elsewhere is illegal, immoral, unethical, inhumane and highly damaging to people, communities and our country.

They need to be stopped now.  First step:  No additional funding!  Second step:  Take away their guns!  Third step:  Strictly prohibit behavior forbidden by our Constitution—See Bill of Rights!  Fourth step:  Hold them accountable for their actions.  They must obey the rule of law.  Fifth step:  Provide required training with emphasis on specific limits on their behavior backed by real consequences for transgressing!  Sixth step:  Carefully vet who is being hired and stop ridiculous sign-up bonuses!  ALL of these steps can be taken NOW!

Please contact your senators and representatives regularly until they get your point that what is happening is not okay and it must be stopped.
