    Truly awful stuff. The anti-ICE actions back in June included protests, yes, but also were uprisings by a community defending itself from an occupying force.

    Edit: I wrote then deleted this part, but what I said was: Recently near me ICE snatched up a man right after he dropped his kids off at school, then a few days later while people were still protesting they swooped back in and snatched some day laborers in the same neighborhood. And that this is hardly identifying information to be because our gestapo operates so widely!
    These kind of high-handed tactics only work against a passive population, and both the spontaneous & organized resistance is successful in preventing ICE from doing what they’re trying to do.
