One fact is clear—ICE is afraid of us.
ICE boarded up their buildings, put up fences, hid behind masks, forced us to move to a new location, & pepper balled peaceful protestors. They fear our unity. They know their only hope is to divide us in culture wars. We cannot let them. Our basic humanity depends on our unity. https://www.qasimrashid.com/p/when-protesting-ice-we-need-messengers
@QasimRashid Does anyone else think it's weird that average Americans are now fighting ICE in the streets, and the news is all about normal people being heroes? Is it weird that everyone is just taking it as a given that ICE is a legit governmental organisation, and should be allowed to exist? Has it occurred to anyone else that, if the response of American leadership hasn't been to disestablish ICE by now, then that maybe that's what the people should be calling for in addition to engaging in actual pitched battle? And that this has been the case for the last 20 years?
@QasimRashid Such a dumb take. No wonder people are forced to vote for whichever lesser idiots they can afford.
@QasimRashid -
Protesting ICE facilities is about as dumb as protesting Prisons when the legislators passed the laws to put people there. If you don't like the laws, talk to your state representative! That is order. That is the US way. Ignorance is the reason our country is divided...and if you're protesting law enforcement personnel enforcing laws, you may want to rethink whatever you think you're doing, because you're just on the wrong side of logic.

I understand your words deeply. Oppression everywhere uses the same tactics fear and division. Unity is our only strength.
