On the morning after many thousands of anti-Trump, anti-ICE protesters streamed through San Francisco\u2019s streets <\/a>and millions did the same in hundreds of other cities,<\/a> a small group of demonstrators were back, early, for a second go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than 100 people were this morning staking out a building at 478 Tehama St. in SoMa. It houses a detention alternative program of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement\u2014 ICE. In an irregular move, a number of immigrants purportedly received short notice to report here over the weekend. Saturday and Sunday appointments are a rarity and activists surmised it portended arrests and potential deportation actions. <\/a>Protesters showed up early on Saturday and, again, today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jean Moses, 75, Oakland, was here yesterday too. \u201cWhat\u2019s happened to the immigrant families hurts me,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s so appalling that we would treat anybody like that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dozens of immigrants have been arrested in the past week and change by federal agents. In a catch-22, many were mandated to show up at check-ins or court appearances where failure to appear could lead to arrest \u2014 but were arrested when they showed<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keith Pavlik, 68, of San Francisco, was not here yesterday. But he\u2019s here now. \u201cI feel that this is a great injustice,\u201d he said, \u201cand I want to stand against it.\u201d He\u2019ll stay today for as long as he can: \u201cI have really bad arthritis, so an hour and a half is probably my max.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both Moses and Pavlik were standing at what appears to be the back entrance of the building, on Howard Street. Most protesters, perhaps 100 of them, are walking in a large oval at the other entrance, on Tehama Street. Perhaps 50 or so more are playing instruments or offering legal advice to the handful of immigrants present who appear to have gotten the ICE check-in notifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While posted hours for the building are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., it didn\u2019t open yesterday. Lawyers present suggested to immigrants that they take a selfie on-site to prove they complied with the check-in order, upload it into the ICE app and then leave. Ghassan Shamieh, an immigration attorney on scene Sunday, is offering similar advice today. Immigrants have been told to text ICE via its app that they are at the building and take a photo as evidence. Mission Local <\/em>observed at least one person doing just this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Protesters arrived at 7 a.m. on Sunday and no one has yet seen any indication that anyone is within the building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One difference from yesterday: At some point after Saturday morning, someone has tagged the building with slogans like \u201cICE get out\u201d and \u201cBella ciao\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
