"Witness. Help us establish a record of exactly what is happening in our communities. You have an absolute right to peacefully film ICE agents as they conduct these activities.
"So carry your phone with you at all times. And if you see these ICE agents in your neighborhood, take out that phone and hit record.
"Help us create a database of the atrocities against Minnesotans. Not just to establish a record for posterity, but to bank evidence for future prosecution."

Republicans accused Dems of "hating America" over FAR less than this. -

I like Walz and morally tend to side with the dems on most things. But as good as the speech is, its just a speech.What's next, is Chuck Schumer going to consider issuing a strongly worded memorandum in a few months? Is Jeffries gonna vigorously pump his arms around and and strongly stab his index finger to reinforce his valid critique in his next stump speech?
It feels like the dems are going to a gun fight with bananas and clown feet. I hope I'm wrong.

Naive question of mine: But is it guaranteed that the local police will protect this right? As I'm seeing in the news, unfortunately this is not the case... (1/2

️ (2/2) I understand that #Walz is doing the best he can, and that he and #Frey want to avoid full #civilwar (against someone, who has "bigger guns", like Frey stated), but if the democratic senators and mayors are not activating the national guard and the local police immediately AGAINST #ICE, to protect citizens, the States will be totally lost to the fascist occupators. At this point, the US still has more possibilities than my german ancestors in 1933. But maybe not for long. -

But maybe not for long.@Isabelle_Vannier @rationaldoge the police will and have decline to enforce any such order... you REALLY gotta stop imagining that the police, the very thing that ice are, are somehow going to help us in this. you also have to stop imagining that some governor or mayor is going to volunteer for treason without massive, daily, disruptive protests in the streets DAILY at the very least, to be able to point to as a vox populi like these things actually go a way and require things and we are so clearly no longer operating in the cushy rules and liberals world of years past... time to adapt or just resign and let it happen without any resistance.
before you get mad, really think about it neighbor.

️)@Isabelle_Vannier @rationaldoge It's not guaranteed. To say they' side with ICE, though, is wrong.
I know a lot of people are convinced ACAB, but it's time for folks to figure out that we need all the help, a.k.a. firepower, we can get, even if it's just 600 cops vs. 3000 ICE agents.
Trump wants chaos. IMHO, anyone who panders to him in that regard is on his side.

@0x00string @Isabelle_Vannier @rationaldoge Treason? Lawsuits have been filed, and it's more than likely O'Hara will be tightly followed in the efforts to get ICE out, with or without the MN National Guard, which the Governor has prepared.
