Comments My name is Gene Scheppner, I was born and raised in Ventura County, I’m a current resident and homeowner in Camarillo for more than 25 years.
I’m here to ask you NOT to normalize armed, masked
abductions in our community. If one of us is not safe than NONE of us are safe. This is a public safety EMERGENCY. As a woman, I do not feel safe here now. Apparently, some heavily armed, masked goon can throw you into a white panel van at any moment never to be seen again.
ICE and its associated violent dangerous imposters are not welcome here. Immigrants and field workers are part of us. We are all connected. We live in harmony together every day, in grocery stores, parks, shopping malls - everywhere. Immigrants built this country and this county. Sending dangerous armed, masked men into our community (a major agricultural
producer) is so overwhelmingly wrong. We don’t want them in our peaceful community. This is a manufactured crisis. There is no “undocumented person crisis” here and everybody knows it.
The only CRISIS is the deliberate damage being done here by ICE and masked wanna-bes.
1 The visual of heavily armed, masked men chasing hardworking field workers through agriculture land makes me sick to my stomach. It has activated many of us and it should activate YOU to do something about it. Make it Stop.
Please demand adherence to the constitution, due process and an end to this unbelievable nightmare.
Liberty and justice for ALL.
