A streetscape from downtown Los Angeles with a small taco stand next to a large mixed-use brick building in the background and a light pole in the foreground with a sign that says, “Don’t open for ICE! ICE out of our communities! ICE cannot legally enter your home unless they have a warrant signed by a judge. Usually, the agents will have the wrong kind of warrant, or an incomplete one — if they have one at all.”
