Giving ICE body cameras doesn’t make us more safe. None of us trusts the government to be honest with saving the footage. Unless it goes to a secure cloud as it’s being recorded that can’t be corrupted, it’s not a win. ICE OUT!

Spent an hour chanting, blowing a whistle, and holding a "NO ICE" sign with dozens of patriots in my community this afternoon.
Ordinary people. Standing up to authoritarianism.
*note* - many more passers by honked in support than flipped us off in this rural, red-leaning community.

Don't call us murders because we'll murder more innocents if you do.
Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."

“It’s doubtful that the shooting will deter anti-ICE resistance. The observers, I fear, will now go out in twos and threes, ready to record not just the ICE kidnappings, but also, potentially, each other’s deaths.”
