Celebs react to disabled 10-year-old girl detained for deportation while on her way to surgery

[licktheabortion]

Background: Rosamaria Hernandez is a 10-year-old girl in Texas with cerebral palsy. She also has kidney stones. On her way to gallbladder surgery, a border patrol checkpoint (note: border patrol has jurisdiction 100 miles of the border) stopped her ambulance. The agents found out that she was brought here without papers when she was 3 months old.

This is sickening. How do you take away a girl right out of surgery, much less at all?

The party of family values are the worst "Christians"

It's always the people who claim with pride how religious they are that prove to be the most hateful, hypocritical mofos on earth.

Thanks for this, I'm not religious but I retweeted it.

seriously, This past year has made me really rethink being Catholic or just Christian in general. Currently avoiding some churches now. I really wish I could have recorded some of the crazy sermons I have heard. I think most of the time I am just too shocked I was hearing what I was hearing to pull my phone out (which is also a no-no at church) but ugh I have just been disappointed by my priests so far. Either they are too scared to call out our country's bigotry so they say some weaksauce neutral comment like "lets all love each other" or they would openly criticize.

Also the same reason why I stopped listening to Immaculate heart radio because its like Fox news but worse.

i keep reading this story and over and over again and i'm still speechless. i honestly don't know what to say anymore.

[_its_true_]

WHAT THE FUCK?? This is so freaking wrong.

[executivehpfan]

This is fucking despicable. I've already gotten on my congressmen about this but considering I'm from Texas alskdjfoiajsgoam

Fucking disgraceful

:(

There are some (even a lot) of Republican elected officials (assuming your congressman is a Republican) who are conservative on a lot of issues but not on immigration. That may not be the case with yours, but maybe he is one of the amenable ones…

[executivehpfan]

For what it's worth, I sent all three of them faxes but I have little hope considering my senators are John Cornyn and Ted Cruz. My rep is a motherfucker too.

[licktheabortion]

Thank you for doing it <3 <3

But fuck Cruz and Cornyn

dismantle ICE. it's a terrorist organization.

[licktheabortion]

And Border Patrol, too! Even though ICE Is supposed to be internal enforcement and CBP external, because CBP has jurisdiction 100 miles of the border, they do so much shit to make life difficult for people living far from the border.

seriously, only xenophobic people would ever considering applying or volunteering for that job.

I’m convinced it won’t exist in 10 years. Not in its current form. Defund into extinction, tbh.
