I've been to plenty of protests like this and seen lots of families with kids attending. Not all protests are tense antagonistic standoffs. The fact that ICE intentionally turned this into one while children were present says way more about the government's intentions than the protestors' parenting judgment.

Six children tear gassed by ICE recently . This is not any protests where kids should be in . We know ICE is rotten so why do you want to put kids in danger. People defending ICE are monster that don't care about kids so protecting them is the most important thing
