California: Confrontations between protesters and federal immigration agents in cannabis legal farms

Immigration agents, accompanied by National Guard troops, led searches in two cannabis plantations in California. The State is the epicenter of protest against the repression of immigration by the Trump administration.

Federal immigration agents searches for two cannabis farms in California on Thursday, July 10, which caused a confrontation with one hundred protesters, repressed with tear gas and rubber bullets.

Helts have occurred with defenders of the rights of migrants around a legal planning of cannabis in Camallo, located about sixty kilometers west of Los Angeles.

A man is sought, filmed by ABC News, apparently filmed in Customs agents and border protection of the United States (CBP), with the key “a reward of $ 50,000 for any information,” said the United States prosecutor for the Central District of California, Bill Essayli on his own.

California against the federal state

“The dangerous rhetoric of the politicians of the State of California feeds the assaults against federal agents responsible for enforcing immigration laws. His reckless words implicitly encourage violence and aggravate tensions. But we will not go back,” said this former elected Republican, who was appointed in April by the Minister of Justice Pam Bondi.

The head of the CBP, Rodney Scott, said that the discovery of ten minors in the establishment, including eight minors not accompanied in an irregular situation, had launched an investigation into possible violations of the labor law of the miners, describing this situation as “California news.”

“Newsom California”

Democratic governor Gavin Newson retaliates on social networks, accusing President Donald Trump to address families and agricultural workers while defending California evaluation of the exploitation of children.

“The children fleeing the tear gas, who cry on the phone because their mother has just been kidnapped in the fields,” Gavin Newsom wrote, calling Donald Trump as “true idiot.”

There have also been clashes in another cannabis plantation located about fifty kilometers more west of Camillo, in carpentry.

These two raids intervene as the Trump administration has intensified its repression of immigration throughout the country, pointing to what they say they are criminal companies that exploit vulnerable populations.
