The tactics of the federal force, too, have grown more aggressive and indiscriminate. Armed officers have appeared at schools, daycares, churches and mosques. Masked agents are stopping residents at traffic lights, or on their walk to the grocery store, demanding – at gunpoint – that they prove their citizenship.
The agents are targeting not only undocumented immigrants, but also those with legal immigration status and valid visas, US citizens and tribal citizens. On Tuesday, a group of local law enforcement officers said even their agents were being pulled over, reporting that off-duty police officers of color had been stopped and questioned at gunpoint by the administration’s immigration force.
Define, please.
I’m not being glib here. I hear people chant for people to “fight back” and I honestly want to know what they think that looks like.
If protesting, filming, following them, warning others, blocking their entry into places, etc doesn’t count to you, what does?
Again; I’m asking in earnest.
Yes that does. Standing on a street holding a sign is not effective.
Those things you said are a very good start.
If everyone willing to stand on a street corner was willing to step it up a notch, we’d have perhap millions of people following ICE around all day long preventing them from doing their job.
Also… They have to go home sometime… follow them.
Gotcha. Thank you for answering.
