Yes. Yes. Yes.

If I understand correctly DHS are mis-applying 18 111. It requires obstruction to be *FORCIBLE*

whistles, videoing, asking questions, honking, following them, standing in the street, cursing a blue streak at them, having a CCW...all of those are *LEGAL*

There needs to be some education on the right about what “obstruction” means in a law enforcement context because it does not mean any sort of interaction with law enforcement at all, which is apparently their bar for when a cop can shoot a person in the back, and what they’re going with

I’m told the detainees haven’t had yard time when the protesters have been out the past few Sundays, making it impossible to get A-numbers in person.

That seems to roughly align with the murder of Renee Good, so there’s speculation that CoreCivic is sensitive to the public backlash against ICE.

One way that the organizers get information about who needs money on the inside is a parabolic microphone that allows them to hear the detainees from a distance.

They’ll coordinate and share the A-number (alien registration number) of people most in need when they’re getting yard time.

Activists raise money to send to the detainees inside.

As a for-profit contractor, CoreCivic charges prisoners fees for things like phone calls and food.
