NBC News: "As immigration raids continue, ICE protests spread coast to coast"
Los Angeles is not the only city seeing protests of the Trump administration's immigration enforcement measures.
NBC News reportsthat "[a]ctivists had also gathered in New York, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Atlanta and elsewhere, rebuking the Trump administration’s tough stance against migrants and its aggressive round-up efforts, which Democratic leaders in California have criticized as contributing to a sense of fear across communities. . . . . NBC News has counted at least 25 rallies and demonstrations coast to coast since Monday. Some involved only a few dozen people, while others attracted thousands."

"the Trump administration’s tough stance against migrants and its aggressive round-up efforts". He is enforcing the laws passed by our elected representatives in Congress, which is what he promised to do when he was campaigning. And the American voters elected him.
He is creating fear among the undocumented immigrants in the United States, but that is necessary. You can't enforce the immigration laws in the interior of the country or secure the border on a long time basis if migrants think they will be safe from deportation when they reach the interior of the country.
