Gestapo at the Door: When ICE Comes Knocking

This Happened Just Days Ago—Right Here in My Back Yard.

It was almost noon when they came.

A cold wind swept through Geneva, New York. The sky was heavy with the threat of snow, and the air was thick with winter’s silence. But silence wouldn’t last…

Three men stood at the edge of the property.

They wore dark tactical vests, black utility pants, and thick jackets lined with armor.

Their badges gleamed in the early light, clipped high on their chests—too high to read unless you got too close. The kind of closeness that could cost you.

ICE.
