Great question. We track ICE agents in real time, we show up en masse when they try to kidnap our neighbors, and we blow whistles and honk horns and bully them until they flee with their coward tails between their legs. We do this many times a day, every day. Thank you for asking
Look, I'm all for ensuring ICE doesn't continue with their nefarious activities.

But how do you actually "run them off"?

Serious question.

Can confirm I have personally seen three attempts just today of agents in a convoy of ICE vehicles trying to snatch random POCs along Central Ave - and then being chased off by neighbors with whistles. It's blatant racial profiling.

Minneapolis city council member says POC should stay home:
Dear neighbor,

HIGH ALERT‼️ If you are vulnerable to deportation please stay home today. I’m sorry to say this but it’s not safe to be outside. ICE is tearing families apart.

Children of immigrants please keep your family safe.

ICE was just going up & down central getting out their cars with pepper spray and guns, but we had so many legal observers it made a huge difference.

If you’re vulnerable at all we are asking you stay inside today & remember don’t open your door without seeing a judicial warrant signed by a judge.

Being in Minneapolis is rough these days but I won’t let the bastards get me down. It’s #caturday after all. Here is Debbie looking like one of those mid century sad eyed kid pictures.

Today ICE agents took my picture and ran away! They must find me both handsome and intimidating

I mean, look at Top Gun Maverick here behind the wheel of a family truckster in south Mpls the other day.

Embarrassing, bruh.

Hi! Update to how you join the Minneapolis and St. Paul feed bc my screenshot was out of date. 1. Fill out the Google Form (linked in next post). 2. Wait 48-72 hours, maybe longer (vol-led so we're on it but not asap). 3. Then you have to add yourself to the feed.

If you are a small business or property owner, you have the right to not allow ICE onto your property without a signed judicial warrant. Please come out to Central Ave to support our immigrant owned businesses and look out for your neighbors.

God bless our courageous Minneapolis frog brethren!
Anti-ICE protesters are having a rolling noise demo and protest in downtown Minneapolis targeting hotels where federal agents are reportedly staying -- starting at the Canopy by Hilton and going to the Renaissance Minneapolis Hotel. Police have just arrived as we are posting this.

Oh man! I love that song. I play along with it on my mandolin. I will think of it every time I blow my whistle from now on!

Doesn’t matter. We’re protecting our neighbors, and when we run them off, we win for now

Minneapolis City Council President is on ICE patrol.
We just chased off ICE from taking 2 young men by our public housing high rise and then immediately ran off another convoy from the target at the Quarry. Activity is very high today, we need people out patrolling and protecting their neighbors defend612.com
