Ice kidnapping. What a heinous bunch of thugs Trump has working his tearing down of the country. [View all]

An 82 year old man was taken by ICE at a green card replacement appointment. His family was never informed where he was or how to get ahold of him until he was in a foreign hospital... despite the fact that he was a permanent legal resident of the US.
Luis Leon came to the US 38 years ago.
He had been tortured in his native Chile by the administration of the dictator Augusto Pinochet. The US gave him political asylum and he came legally to the United States in 1987.
Luis built a life here in the US. He worked at a leather manufacturing plant, raised four kids, and eventually retired.
