    The day is coming, probably not long after the Midterms, when one of these scenes is going explode, and a bunch of ICE Apes aren’t going to make it out of the neighborhood alive. And once it happens in one place, it’s going to spread. It’s inevitable.

      This scenario ignores that ICE is the single most funded arm of a militant government, excluding the actual military, and has an open door hiring policy during a time of severe financial distress. They can and will hire anyone to fill those ranks. Those people will be likely to shoot at people and may be encouraged to do so if things escalate.

      Point being, it might happen once but it will only happen once. Every other attempt will end in massive bloodshed against anyone who isn’t ICE. This is why it is so important to put the city police between the people and ICE.

        They’re also largely cowards and bullies who are only “strong” when they have their anonymity and numbers on their side. A coordinated resistance and they’d turn tail.

        Target their families.

        They have no problem targeting ours.
