Picture from Saturday's protest at the Portland ICE facility. An agent fixed his 40mm launcher at my head twice, despite me very obviously being a photographer.

Oooo shots fired! No, for real... murderous agents fired shots.
The resistance and pressure as well as non-compliance Minneapolis has been doing is very good. The only addition is I'd add that they need to regularly guard their neighborhoods, armed. That they have contact with others in multiple ways to warn of ICE in the area. Maybe not armed but when a task force of ICE is found, they have a task force of citizens there to document, resist, and just be general interference. Far too many people talk about resisting and violence against ICE to mean lone wolf shooting. That's not what we're calling for.
