A Houston Reddit post has sparked discussions about the safety of celebrating Día de los Muertos due to fears of ICE raids. Concerns have risen as ICE's presence has been prominent in cities like Chicago and Los Angeles, leading to the cancellation of celebrations in some places. The original poster, a naturalized U.S. citizen, shared apprehensions about attending events, prompting advice from others to take precautions. An ICE operation in Pasadena further heightened tensions, as a standoff occurred following the attempted arrest of an immigrant previously deported.
