SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — Recent ICE arrests near schools in San Diego County have left immigrant communities on edge as the new school year begins. Teachers are now organizing patrols to support students and families.

The most recent incident occurred last Thursday when ICE arrested a parent on Olser Street, within view of Linda Vista Elementary School. Video shows ICE agents removing the man from his car while he was waiting to pick up his child from school.
 
ICE officials stated the parent was an undocumented immigrant fraudulently using a U.S. Social Security number. The San Diego Unified School District had to contact his wife to pick up the child who was left at school.

"You shouldn't have to be scared to bring your kids to school because of all this nonsense. They're supposed to be going after criminals, what criminals you know will take their kids to school and pick them up?" said a concerned parent.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

When I taught, schools and teachers were supposed to teach subjects, not be political centers for instilling radicalism in students.
