2. Just happened in Portland, OR too
A Del Monte produce packing plant. They descended on the place as if it was some nutcase militia compund in northern Idaho. They dragged away a lot of people, men and women. Some folks' kids were left at daycares and schools wondering what happened to their parents.

This country is very, very sick.
