Not just in #Massachusetts... I'm not big on organized religion, but if you're going to practice it, at least be consistent with your principles (like the folks who set-up these displays)!
Church Nativity scenes add zip ties, gas masks and ICE to protest immigration raids

DEDHAM, Mass. (AP) — "One baby Jesus lays in a manger in the snow, wrapped in a silver emergency blanket with his wrists zip-tied. Mary stands nearby outside the #LakeStreetChurch in #EvanstonIL, wearing a plastic gas mask and flanked by #RomanSoldiers in tactical vests labeled 'ICE.'
"In another #Chicago suburb, not far from an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility that has drawn protests over detentions, a sign at the manger outside the #UrbanVillageChurch says 'Due to ICE activity in our community the Holy Family is in hiding.' And more than a thousand miles away, the Christ child went missing from a Nativity scene at St. Susanna Parish in #DedhamMa, replaced by a hand-painted sign: 'ICE was here.' "
