"U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) this week issued an immigration detainer against a man in the country illegally who allegedly dealt drugs and attempted to sexually assault a minor on the grounds of a church in San Luis Obispo.
In August, 21-year-old Arturo Rodriguez Reyna allegedly met with a girl under 16 years of age at Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa in order to sell or trade methamphetamine, according to court records. The meeting also included plans for the girl to expose her genitals to Reyna.
Following their meeting, the girl sought medical treatment at a local facility because of a reaction to the narcotics, which resulted in a police investigation.
During their investigation, SLO police detectives discovered that Reyna had contacted several girls under the age of 16 through text messages and various social media platforms, offering to give or sell narcotics to them. Reyna actively encouraged the minors to use cocaine, methamphetamine, and marijuana, and attempted to sexually assault one of the victims"

"Another political football! … but this one is tough to source.
I don’t understand, who would be against deporting illegal criminal aliens? Seems like a strange subset to want to defend.
One nice lady I talked to from the group spoke about an individual with pedophilia charges being deported back to France , but didn’t seem to grasp the irony of the situation. Who wants that guy?
My work frequently takes me to Santa Maria where I interact with folks with varying legal status.
I think my solidly white, highly ‘educated’ neighbors would be surprised to find that most of those hard working , family - oriented people don’t want the “ bad boys” around either.
The growing problem of organized drug trade operators - in both NorCal and the desert counties is going to have to be dealt with somehow, sooner or later as well."

"Yep. I used to donate to the Red Cross, until they went off the rails with salaries and non-emergencies. I also used to donate heavily to the Boy Scouts, until they, also, went off the rails of the very purpose Lord Baden-Powell instituted.
I now donate exclusively to the USO. While their executive makes about 120+K per year, the USO works daily, every day, all year, to get supplies, support, and exclusive entertainment to deployed service members anywhere on the planet. Recall, this is not a government organization, but their AFR is less than 30%, which isn't bad....not great, but not bad. Anything that is shipped on military aircraft, must be paid freight, no freebies "just because". Otherwise, it must be shipped commercial. So the AFR bothers me hardly at all.
Since I have had, personally, many years of USO support, they have a special place in my wallet :)"

"The vast majority of Sikh drivers are citizens or are here legally. There are dozens of legitimate Sikh trucking businesses on the West Coast. The argument that white Americans in the 21st century want to drive long haul trucks is about as false as the claim that white Americans will pick strawberries if farmers just raised wages for such labor. But don’t let me stop you from denigrating an immigrant community that has been highly productive for the U.S. economy."
