GRETNA, La. — Siomara Cruz wasn’t troubled when she saw two Latina immigrants handcuffed earlier this month by masked immigration agents outside a restaurant in this New Orleans suburb.

“They need to do things the proper way,” said Cruz, 59, a housewife whose parents immigrated from Cuba. “The law is the law. Every country has their law, and you’ve got to respect it.”
