Summary
The Dallas Police Department (DPD) announced it will not participate in ICE immigration raids, instead launching outreach meetings to reassure immigrant communities.
Led by the UNIDOS Latino Community Outreach Program, the initiative aims to dispel misinformation and encourage crime reporting.
Interim Chief Michael Igo emphasized that DPD focuses on public safety, not immigration enforcement. However, individuals with outstanding warrants may still face arrest and possible deportation.
Additional meetings, including legal guidance sessions, are planned in Dallas and neighboring areas to support and inform migrant residents.
Fuck trump. Fucking traitor.
The Trump administration is so far right it’s making Texas look liberal.
The worst cops aren’t always where you’d expect. Cops in Seattle and Austin are atrocious, for example, but Dallas, despite generally being much more conservative, has a much more professional police force in my experience.
Uplifting news? In MY feed?
From a police department? In Texas???
On a Monday during a Trump Administration?
Truly the end times are upon us.
My first thought was ‘is Dallas county majority Hispanic now?’ So I checked and yes, the largest demographic group is now Hispanic/Latino
DPD has a loooooong, fucked up history with minorities. I’m not fan of cops, but I’ll take a W where I can get it.
