    When immigration agents came to the farm where he worked, Jaime Alanis
    tried to hide.

    Climbing to the roof of a greenhouse, while agents rounded up and
    arrested dozens of his coworkers below, Mr Alanis hoped to stay out of
    sight.

    Then he fell.

    His neck was broken and skull fractured. He died later in hospital.

    Meanwhile, immigration agents fired teargas at a crowd of some 500
    protestors, who had gathered to stop the raids outside two legal
    cannabis farms. Some threw rocks, and the FBI says one fired a gun at
    federal agents.

    Mr Alanis's death, and the violent clashes that ensued at those cannabis
    farms, are the latest examples of the kind of chaos that has swept
    across southern California since the beginning of June, when immigration
    raids began to intensify in the region.

    Those crackdowns sparked protests, which led to US President Donald
    Trump deploying the National Guard and US Marines, to protect federal
    officers from the demonstrators and to ensure that his mass
    deportations, which he had long promised, were carried out.

    While many Americans support Trump's tough immigration policies, the relentlessness of the raids in the region has also triggered a fierce
    backlash from neighbours and activists. Southern California is home to
    an estimated 1.4 million undocumented immigrants, many of whom have been
    forced into hiding - too afraid to go to work, school or even the
    grocery store.

    In so doing, the raids have altered the landscape of one of the
    country's most populous regions. Businesses are shuttered, cities have cancelled community events - including Fourth of July fireworks
    celebrations.

    "Everyone's looking over their shoulders," says a "raspado" vendor in
    Los Angeles on a recent Sunday, where normally crowded soccer fields and
    picnic tables were mostly deserted. As she prepared the shaved ice with
    sweet strawberry syrup, she seemed wary of questions but grateful for a customer.

    "It's never like this," she said.

    The raids at the two cannabis farms are now being touted as the largest immigration operation since Trump took office.

    Of the 361 migrants detained during those raids, four had "extensive"
    criminal records, including rape, kidnapping, and attempted child
    molestation, media reported. Immigration officers also found 14 migrant children, who the administration claims have been "rescued from
    potential exploitation, forced labor, and human trafficking".

    While the administration frequently highlights the convicted rapists,
    murderers and drug dealers they have arrested in operations, scores of immigrants - many with no criminal convictions who have spent decades
    building businesses, families and homes - have been caught in the
    crosshairs.

    "They just kidnap you," says Carlos, who didn't want his full last name
    used out of fear that he could be deported to his native Guatemala. He
    has been too afraid to go to work since his sister, Emma, was detained
    while selling tacos outside a Home Depot last month. "If I'm brown, if
    I'm Hispanic, they just come and catch you and take you."

    The Trump administration says claims that people are being targeted
    because of their skin colour are "disgusting" and false.

    Illegal is illegal. Try that illegal presence shit in Mexico or Italy
    and see what happens.

    If the Democrats take back Congress in the mid-term elections, they'll
    pull a Jimmy Carter and give California back to Mexico just as Carter
    gave the Panama Canal Zone back to Panama, although Panama belonged to
    Colombia and Mexico belonged to Spain. Then the Democrats will do the
    same to Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Nevada and Texas. The Democrat
    Party is the illegal alien party.

    California was a republic independent of Mexico before becoming
    conquerred territory. Mexico rebelled against Spain and made themselves
    a sovereign republic.

    You're leaving out some history.

    https://www.britannica.com/biography/Maximilian-archduke-of-Austria-and-emperor-of-Mexico

    Maximilian (born July 6, 1832, Vienna, Austria—died June 19, 1867, near Querétaro, Mex.) was an archduke of Austria and the emperor of Mexico, a
    man whose naive liberalism proved unequal to the international intrigues
    that had put him on the throne and to the brutal struggles within Mexico
    that led to his execution.

    The younger brother of Emperor Francis Joseph, he served as a rear
    admiral in the Austrian navy and as governor-general of the
    Lombardo-Venetian kingdom. In 1863 he accepted the offer of the Mexican
    throne, falsely believing that the Mexican people had voted him their
    king; in fact, the offer was the result of a scheme between conservative Mexicans, who wished to overturn the liberal government of President
    Benito Juárez, and the French emperor Napoleon III, who wanted to
    collect a debt from Mexico and further his imperialistic ambitions
    there. Backed by a pledge of support from the French army, Maximilian
    sailed for Mexico with his wife Carlota, daughter of Leopold I, king of
    the Belgians.

    Crowned emperor on June 10, 1864, Maximilian intended to rule with
    paternal benevolence, viewing himself as the protector of the Indian
    peasants. He upheld Juárez’ sweeping reforms (to the indignation of the landed proprietors) and was determined to abolish peonage, and he
    antagonized the Roman Catholic hierarchy by refusing to restore vast
    church holdings confiscated by Juárez. The treasury was so bare,
    however, that he had to use his own inherited income for daily expenses.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Republic

    By 1845–46, Alta California had been largely neglected by Mexico for the twenty-five years since Mexican independence. It had evolved into a semi-autonomous region with open discussions among Californios about
    whether California should remain with Mexico; seek independence; or
    become annexed to the United Kingdom, France, or the United States. In
    1845, the widely hated Manuel Micheltorena, the latest governor to be
    sent by Mexico, was forcefully ejected by the Californians. His forces
    were defeated at the Battle of Providencia (also known as the Second
    Battle of Cahuenga Pass) as a result of the actions of California
    pioneer John Marsh.[11][12][13][14] This resulted in the return of
    Californian Pio Pico to the governorship. Pico ruled the region south of
    San Luis Obispo with his capital in The Town of Our Lady the Queen of
    Angels of the Porciúncula River, now known as Los Angeles. The area to
    the north of the pueblo of San Luis Obispo was under the control of Alta California's Commandante José Castro with headquarters near Monterey,
    the traditional capital and, significantly, the location of the
    Customhouse. Pico and Castro disliked each other personally and soon
    began escalating disputes over control of the Customhouse income.[15]

    Decrees issued by the central government in Mexico City were often
    acknowledged and supported with proclamations but ignored in practice.
    By the end of 1845, when rumors of a military force being sent from
    Mexico proved to be false, rulings by the other district government were
    mostly ignored.[16]

    When Jimmy Carter was President?

    Mexico rebelled around 1820. California rebelled in 1846. It was a
    republic from 1846 to 1846. June to July.
