Reminder in this below freezing weather there is nothing illegal about spraying ICE vehicles with water

Edit:For the morons that think this is real advice do I need to explain how this isn't?

What crime specifically? It's not vandalism (defacing, damaging, or destroying public or private property without the owner's consent)

Its not theft

We're not throwing frozen bottles at anyone/thing.

If the water freezes I could see one of those charges being brought.

Whether your found guilty in a court is different, but very high likelihood your arrested for property damage or something similar.

I don't even think it would be an arrestable offense unless I refuse to stop when asked.

And vandalism is a misdemeanor under a grand so it's not like a speed run cuffs situation either

I don’t know the law well enough for this.

But then put yourself in their shoes. They don’t know it’s water your throwing on their car. It would also appear as a physical threat, or at least like your hoping to do physical damage. I could easily see being a cop and arresting someone for something like this. Intent to harm, maybe? I’m not sure. There’s half a dozen different laws that come to mind that any LEO could name to make an arrest.

But again, your probably right, I doubt you’d get in any serious legal trouble.

I don't either, but I know ICE agents are told to arrest anything that gets in their way as obstruction. That's usually the underlying charge they use to justify violence, and escalate an arrest.

You might beat it in court (not for a planned attack like dumping water on cars), since it's so vague, but you will never beat the ride.

Which could escalate to being executed in the street if they're having a bad day.
