Suddenly I'm having visions of the flash mob trend returning with purpose.

Anywhere an ICE agent is sitting in a parking lot... suddenly showtunes and choreographed dancing, or just a block party, all around them.

That would get a lot of people killed.

Know what else gets people killed by these goons? Compliance.

[–] in4apenny@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 5 hours ago

Not doing it will get even more people killed.

[–] Sabata11792@ani.social 9 points 7 hours ago

Not doing it has also got a lot of people killed.

Would it? I've seen some videos here of people absolutely harassing lone ICE agents in cars sitting in parking lots, and those guys just drove off as fast as they could manage.

If you have a crowd of 20+ people around the car, not doing anything directed at the occupant, just kind of hanging around the outside, plus cameras taking video and actively posting it to social media because, hey, flash mob!... what then?

Didn't stop them from shooting a man for helping a lady off the ground.

You're right, Jake.

We shouldn't act at all because bad things happen sometimes.

Thanks man. I needed that reassurance.

[–] Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 2 points 3 hours ago

Lol, how is a flash mob doing something real?

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 hours ago

Not doing it didn't stop them from murdering 20+ people since Trump's inauguration.

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 15 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Good point. Let's just roll over and take it and do nothing because it might be US that gets hurt instead of the "illegals"

[–] Sculptor9157@sh.itjust.works -1 points 5 hours ago

We can't have that because president trump discovered that U. S. is just US, and that guy is a Nobel peace prize acceptee, so there isn't a bone spur in his body that would move towards conflict and fighting.

At least the soundtrack would be incredible.
