Green Card holder's treatment ignites safety concerns in America

livemint.com

Social media backlash has intensified after reports of a US green card holder, Fabian Schmidt, being violently interrogated and stripped at Logan Airport. Critics argue this incident shows the US is unsafe for non-citizens, while some defend ICE's actions. Schmidt was detained upon returning from Luxembourg and later transferred to an ICE facility. His mother described the treatment he received, prompting outrage online, with users claiming the US has adopted harsh immigration practices similar to those in Israel. Some users expressed concern for non-citizens traveling to the US, while others defended ICE, suggesting Schmidt may have violated rules. The incident has sparked a debate about immigration enforcement and safety for non-citizens in the US.
