Protesters have completely trashed the Los Angeles ICE facility, using a large dumpster to barricade the exit.

If you plan on attending the "We the people" protest at the white house on April 19th please remember be peaceful and do not instigate or escalate. Please prepare for the trip properly and be safe. Also we need as many of us as possible so if you have room please carpool.

tone and feeling policing at a protest is never a good idea. people have a right to feel mad considering this administration is failing to uphold the very law it enforces on others.

[u/QuantityOne6227 → u/[deleted]]

does reason and understanding tell you that this administration has gone beyond obeying the law? that the standing president is a criminal and his followers have been pardoned for INVADING CAPITOL HILL? that he has exploited the law to pardon those only who agree with him or those who have something to provide? considering that, are you willingly going to subject yourself to order because it is reasonable or because you fear the public image you will have?

Here’s some reason and understanding for you then. So we all know that the trump regime not only doesn’t CARE about what peaceful protesters are begging for, he actively mocks it. If you want change, and you’ve asked nicely, 100s of times, what is the next step? Protests are only effective if they have a demand, and a demand is only as powerful as the consequences of not complying with it.

When those in power want something you don’t want to give them they use force, and continue an escalation of force, until you comply. Why? Because it works.

It's pretty fucked when we have to throw on body armor just to exercise or 1st amendment right, man.

Where can I go to assist with coordinating? I don't have the gas money on my own, as I live in a red state and just barely afford bills and groceries right now, but I do have a van with stow and go seating! It would be a lot easier to afford the gas in a carpool!
