What has the reaction been throughout mississippi including the p no community, and what response are you expecting . It depends on the perspective. For the Latino Community it has been devastating. Adding insult to injury for them, these raids happened on the first day of school. Employees were ,hipped off from the children the children did not know where their parents were. It was a bit of outrage from that perspective. A lot of people are heartbroken by what happened. Politically it has been divisive. Supporter,r, a trump has supported the raids as has the u. S.

Perspectiveive us on the reports we are seeing and hearing about the children, and that ice may not have contacted Child Protection services before these raids. We have seen the video on tv and heard the children who are trying. Who are crying. Developing tol get more details. There is a lot of misinformation out there. The Child Protection Services Says it was not contacted. That was confirmed, and the reasoning for that and ice officials actually the reason for that was that their plan was to keep it secret and not let anyone know about it. They made preparations for these released 30d they of those detained for what they called humanitarian reasons. Because a lott is of them were parents of these children. We are getting conflicting reports. We are calling School Districts to find out if these kids actually had someone to take care of them. So many reports say there are kids in the streets looking for their family with nowhere to go. Ice is saying that is not the case. Right now it is still developing. We are not sure what the situation is. Give us a sense on the impact on the businesses. One manager said folks were taken out of there.
