suggestion for those in danger of arrest/deportation:

maybe some will find big flaws here but:

apple air tags…slip one in your sock etc. have a family member “link” their phone to it.

at the very least someone may be able to locate where you are being held.

You would not be impersonating a law enforcement officer if you dressed like the MAGA goons. They aren't dressed like law enforcement officers. They may not be legitimate law enforcement officers.

So many here will poo-poo everything.

Once you know where they are call the local police and report them as kidnapped.
And their apple location as last known location.

People here need to find ways to help not sling shit at every idea.
