I find it appalling that the US has become a country without laws protecting its most vulnerable citizens. Anyone who isn't white, doesn't dress in European style, or has an accent that isn't pure American English is liable to be treated like a criminal. It's appalling! I'm so sorry you received such inhumane treatment, and I stand with you completely from Spain, my country.

Thank you Ashley for your story and so sorry you went through that. It's horrendous, abhorrent. And thank you to your grandmother who was a Holocaust survivor. Such courage in your daily is admirable. Keep fighting the fight.

Thank you, Ashley, for your bravery, your clarity, and for holding up a mirror to all of us. Our humanity is being attacked by this death-dealing Trump regime every day. You're exactly right. Any of us who care about human beings have got to keep finding ways to say NO.

Ashley,

Your compassion, courage, and selflessness should be an inspiration to us all. You may be, and your late grandmother may have been, lamed vavnnik. May her memory continue to be a blessing.

Gut Shabbos!

Thank you for sharing your story and for protesting! I'm so sorry that this happened to you and, of course, my heart aches for all of those kidnapped and held unfairly and inhumanely.

Please be doubly aware that ICE, under Trump, prefers shooting to death, murdering people, when they're acting peacefully.

Trump, perversly, enjoys the violence. Trump self actualuzes on killing, on murder.
