It Really Is Safer in the Front
On 1/24, in response to the murder of Alex Pretti, protesters converged on the ICE facility in Portland.

Regarding JK Rowling in 2004.
This is dystopian… and not just because they’re dressed like a scene from the handmaids tale.
These are mostly children.
This is where Liam Ramos is being held.
They’re screaming “let us out” and protesting the brutal conditions.
These kids are braver than every ICE thug holding them hostages
Your worth is not determined by your health.

No one should have to “earn them”.
When basic needs are met, society is better off.
