An 82-year-old Pennsylvania man has been found after his family was led to believe that he had died in the custody of ICE.
Luis Leon was finally located thousands of miles away in Guatemala after he went to a Philadelphia immigration office to simply replace a lost green card. Instead of being helped, Leon was detained, kidnapped, and deported by ICE.

I don't normally like posting rage-inducing stuff like this, but I think a lot of people really, REALLY don't understand/know about the evil that ICE is doing to innocent people, and it's important to share those stories every so often.

"i think the moment i was disillusioned about life was when i was maybe 7 years old and realized the reason all my friends had become assholes was because boys arent allowed to have any physical contact that isnt fighting
my parents were hippie feminists so my brother and i could play clapping games and sleep in puppy piles and give eachother weird hairdos, but all the 'normal' boys just up and stopped knowing how to touch anyone without hitting sometime betweeen kindergarten and first grade
and my little kid mind briefly saw the vastness of life stretching out in front of all of us, and all the hugs everyone would need and not get, and for a moment i was just like
maybe life is not such a good idea after all
[...]
i strongly suspect that a lot of str8 dude feelings of ennoscriptment to women's bodies, particularly the bodies of their wives and girlfriends, is a direct result of those women being the only non-violent physical contact they're allowed to have"

Hello everyone
I would like to thank everyone for their support so far. It has meant a lot. After the news about my university losing its UGC status broke I received messages from well-wishers and friends about how I can handle the situation.
So far, the most likely approach seems to be to do Bachelors all over again, as alternative options in Europe are either very expensive [in Sweden] or very few to begin with [in other EU countries]. With Germany, I can get opportunity to study free of tuition, and given the financial situation, that maybe the best I can do.
If you are wondering, non-EU western countries are ridiculously expensive, even more than Sweden to study in.
Issue is, if I am forced to go for Bachelors all over again, banks would not be enthusiastic to give loan for a second Bachelors! So, in order to address this, since I will not have enough time to gather funds once I get the offer letter, I have started a GoFundMe campaign (with help of a friend in Netherlands, as GoFundMe does not operate in India).
Here is link to my GoFundMe page, with the full story of my situation and why I need help.

So far I am already 26% of the way in, which is very assuring. This is because of generosity of Morbid Zoo's promotion of my GoFundMe at the end of their latest video. So a huge shout out to Morbid Zoo's Mariana Collins, she is awesome!
If you can spare an extra 5 bucks, that would be received with a lot of gratitude. Otherwise, please consider promoting and amplifying it within your means!
