Imagine thinking it's a bad thing to be identified as someone who wants to take care of your neighbors.
Please, identify the helpers for all of us. So we can buy them drinks. Let us celebrate their love for their neighbors. Allow me to knit them soft things.

Here’s the deal, they captured my face standing outside of my kid’s preschool in a high-viz vest. The database is going to be so big it’ll be useless. Employers will ask why you aren’t in the database and unless you explain you were doing mutual aid, the people hiring will think you’re a bad person.
TOM HOMAN: “We’re going to create a database where those people that are arrested for interference, impeding and assault, we’re going to make them famous. We’re going to put their face on TV. We’re going to let their employers, in their neighborhoods, in their schools, know who these people are.”

Without exaggeration, these would have little to no impact! None of these would have protected Renee Good, Victor Manuel Diaz, or Alex Pretti. ICE OUT is the only acceptable solution.

And until every single neighbor is returned
ICE leaving Minneapolis isn’t the end of anything, it would be cathartic and possibly curb some of the building revolutionary anger and energy.
Nothing is over until ICE is abolished, its criminals imprisoned, the Trump Admin is run out of power, and a new and fairer future is realized.

To be clear, the demand is:
Get out of Minneapolis
Do not go anywhere else
Disband them
Prosecute all the crimes
And most importantly
GIVE US BACK OUR NEIGHBORS

I'll repeat my ask to Democratic Senators here: don't vote for the DHS funding bill, yes. AND ALSO do not vote for another single thing in the United States Senate until the invasion and occupation of Minnesota ends. Don't vote to name a post office, dedicate a road, or even a procedural motion

AND we don’t just want them bringing this elsewhere.
It’s not “get out of Minneapolis”
it’s “get out of everywhere, get prosecuted for the crimes, and then we salt whatever ground made this happen don’t doesn’t happen again to anyone anywhere”
Won’t fit on a poster but that’s the demand.

So… boycotts aren’t temporary. When I start boycotting, I am DONE.
But don’t panic. I know that it might be scary to think you’ll never do another Target run etc, but believe me: you will find *better* alternatives. You’ll have less garbage. You will enjoy things more.
