Dear Minnesota Community, It was heartbreaking to see what our Federal government agents have perpetrated on the citizens of your state over the past week, and beyond. My friends and I were at a standstill on Saturday witnessing yet another deadly escalation attacking innocent American citizens and ending in another senseless and brutal killing. My southern California community is truly shocked and saddened to see these unthinkable events unfold and we are amazed by the courage, unity and resilience of the Minnesota heroes who – while facing imminent danger – are standing up to protest and call out this evil ICE occupation. Our state is on the list, surely, for an upcoming ICE occupation and my friends and I know that your plight in MN is something that could happen here any day, especially if this is allowed to continue. We will shout Alex Pretti’s name and Renee Nicole Good’s name as ALL Americans need to witness with their own eyes what has happened in Minnesota. Your extremely impressive protests and messages that this needs to be a wake up call for our country and cannot be forgotten are received. Thank you for facilitating this important platform to express our support and thanks also for continuing to inspire us with your unbelievable courage and strength at this devastating time. America will never forget how Minnesota handled these heartbreaking and vile events and your strength inspires and motivates us. Love, Virginia and my neighbors and friends
