Is this in Minneapolis? If so, will the mayor order the police force to stop acting like they're allied with ICE? (Let's be honest, they mostly are I bet). At some point a city is going to need to force their police force to officially choose sides, or resign if they are unwilling.

their badges say "POLICE DHS"

These are DHS uniforms made to look like local police

[–] UnspecificGravity@piefed.social 24 points 2 days ago

These are ICE agents or some other variety of federal law enforcement based on their DHS badges.

Came here for this clarification - Minneapolis has far more snow and ice on the ground this week than what's shown

Other than "because of BLM", cooperation with local law enforcement would be a good reason for ICE to focus efforts there.

John Brown was the last one we had and the state killed him.

MAGA's success owes a lot to the Conservative Propaganda Machine. In a country as big and spread out as ours, having keyboard warriors to spread the message, highlight important stories, organize widespread people, whip up the encouragement and enthusiasm, expose corruption, provide sources, etc. is extremely important.

Not everybody has the ability protest, either physically or geographically, so don't disparage them for making an important and necessary contribution to the cause, just because it doesn't align with what you can do.
