I visited my son in CA in a small town east of San Francisco in December. On two occasions we went out to eat and the hostesses warned us that service might be slow as a lot of staff didn't come to work. When we asked why after this now happened twice we were told ICE has been cruising the area and even the immigrants that were totally legal weren't interested in even being around to see how hassled they could be.
