The federal government denies that it has broadened the scope of its immigration raids

 The U.S. department of Homeland Security denies allocations by immigration advocates who suggest that the agency is making "fewer distinctions between serious and minor crimes" in their immigration enforcement raids.  These raids have put immigrate communities and activities on high alert.  According to Sarah Owings, an immigration attorney in Atlanta Georgia, "It is not just a bunch of rapists and murders, as Trump said when he was campaigning of this, there are a lot of people who my have very minor traffic offenses".  Of the 235 foreign nations arrested across 5 states, 163 had criminal convictions, 60 had illegally reentered the US and 12 wee immigration fugitives.  The Department of Homeland Security are arresting people who do not represent a safety threat.
