Still missing the point despite having it explained clearly. Either everyone has due process or noone does, especially when ICE act like thugs and are out taking people from the streets. YOU need due process or they can take you away & deport, nothing you can do about it.

We'll have meets to watch the Perseids together in August, and maybe more sun-watching or nighttime stargazing before then (but late sunsets and summer-time clock hours means harder to be out late enough). meetup.com/swl-stargazers Image credits: @jgbreezer (sun), Dorinda (meet)

Group of ~10 sun-gazers on grass in Tooting Common, behind telescope pointed up and to right of camera (at sun), with solar filter on. Trees in background. Scope mounted on a white/plain-aluminium tripod. Some attendees wearing card eclipse glasses and looking up at sun, one black guy giving thumbs up to camera, one helping another person with camera-phone photo using eclipse glass filters. Some rucksacks/tote bags on grass around them.
