Killing just 1 healthcare CEO sent waves through that class of people. Maybe 1 instance of violence on ICE would not fix things but if Americans make ICE fear guerilla hit & run tactics, you could have ICE as scared as the guys clearing tunnels in Vietnam
Are you American? Cuz it's super easy to tell others to commit suicide.
The IRA brought one of the most powerful governments to the negotiating table and they weren't nearly as armed as the American people.
No I'm Canadian and many of us fear we will have to rely on the same tactics if your country follows through on their threats to annex us.
Your country is already doing the same tactics. Why aren't you out there doing what you think needs to be done there? Your right wing is building up to be the US.
Do you have a source for a Canadian force acting like ICE? Our right wing is building up. Thats why they didn't get elected.
That's what building up means, they're not there yet. Now's the time for you to save Canada, get to it.
Having lived in America and Canada, I can reassure you it's a little different, and not the time for fire-bombing a pipeline yet.
So you've decided to go online and try and get Americans to do it? How brave of you.
We don't discuss our tactics. They make geneva conventions once they know them.
We're burning the place for Sure this time, though, if we can get all the way to Florida.
My assessment is that isn't going to happen. Vietnam worked because people were largely united against an invading force. America is the opposite.
I don't think Luigi achieved much with what he did. He's now in jail and UnitedHealth just hires someone else to do the same job. It's also different because his act was not perceived as more personal than political. And it's a lot harder for ordinary Americans to empathize with a rich ceo than working class ICE agents. A lot of Americans are waking up to the fact that ICE is the enemy but it's still a minority. The reality is a lot of Americans personally identify with law enforcement and will feel attacked when they are attacked. This creates more reaction, violence and division when we really need people to be united.
Propaganda of the deed tried and failed 100 years ago and I don't think things are too different today.
