"But the protests! We cant be violent, my optics!"
Shut the fuck up. These protests are actively keeping ICE agents in that area incapable of efficiently completely their job. Their job to kidnap people, torture them, and send them to a camp in another country with 0 due process.
Every time protesters stop ICE from advancing. Everytime they force the national guard, the police, whatever the state wants to throw from accompanying ICE, a family is saved. Every single time precincts are forced to stop a crowd instead of assist ICE, a family is saved.
This is direct action. This is showing up and building community. This is organizing.
Also don't give the "Oh but theyre looting!" Yeah and? Fuck those businesses. Looting is redistributing capital back to the working class and still helps stop ICE and Police from acting.
