I have been thinking this same thing. If you drive the speed limit, or a little below the speed limit, if you slow down for stale greens just in case they're about to turn yellow, if you're extra patient with bikers and pedestrians, you're actually following the law AND slowing down ICE.
As I was being tailgated down W. River Parkway by a large SUV with tinted windows, the thought occurred to me that it might help if everyone drives a bit slower. Gives observers more time to identify feds.
We have a 20 MPH speed limit on residential streets, let’s weaponize it

PSA: this is why it’s strongly recommended not to use the same vehicle for mutual aid that you use for patrolling and rapid response
Guys I think they're instantly getting DVS data.
Pulled up next to this guy on central going south in Columbia heights, followed him, they turned around, got on 694, crossed the river, and went straight to my house in Brooklyn center.

This is an "administrative warrant". It's not signed by a judge and is therefore unlawful. ICE agents carry stacks of these around in their cars and just fill them out on the fly.
Make sure everyone knows what this looks like, as they have already started going door-to-door in some neighborhoods.

We have like 5 coats left after our event today. PLEASE bring coats and boots and snow pants to any of our drop off locations! Link in bio
Here in #Minneapolis, even with all the shit going on, it's still cold out, and a small donation to groups like @supplydepotmpls.bsky.social might save a life.
I cannot emphasize enough that if you feel sad, donating money makes you feel better. Local food bank, diaper bank, mutual aid, a favorite charity, cancer research, or a local news site like @thecity.nyc; there are so many options. Money is the most efficient donation. Or sign up to volunteer.

36 people have died at ICE's hands in the past year
may of these deaths did not happen on camera, but it does not make them any less horrifying and unacceptable
this is a list of their names, where they lived before being abducted, and a link to crowdfunding if i can find it

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.
In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

Says an ICE officer walked up to him as he was chanting “we are not afraid.”
The agent, he says, raised his gun and said “are you afraid now?”

If you respond to 34th & Portland do not go without some kind of eye protection & breathing protection. They WILL be deploying pepper spray & gas to disperse crowds eventually, it is an inevitability. Be careful folks. #Minneapolis #ICEShooting
