There haven't been many new refugees since 2001 when the Patriot Act clamped down on immigration, and, like the Somalis, a lot of the Hmong people in MN are American-born. I assume the latest ICE siege is to arrest and deport the (now) old people who arrived in the '70s.

ICE needs a judge-signed warrant with your name and address to enter.
You can ask them to show you the warrant through the window or under the door.
If there is no valid warrant, you have the right to keep your door closed.
It's in what I'll call poster form -- a good one to put on one's door
