  • It certainly helps against plainclothes people and hiding their face. You don’t know who is an actual officer and who isn’t.

    I do remember that event for BLM. The police were using paint balls or bb guns for their “riot control” after there was a curfew.

    This needs the full on force of armed citizen watchdog groups who escort ICE and hold them off. A whole community that is armed and saying “no, this is my neighbor and you cannot take him.” Is going to be the way to stop ICE.

    I would love to see the “police free zone” that Portland had during the BLM protests get recreated as “ICE free zones.”







  • Congress needs to pass a law requiring that any national emergency needs to be confirmed by a super majority of both the house and Senate within 15 calendar days of declaration. Or from 15 days of the passage of this law, whichever is later. An ongoing national emergency must be renewed by Congress before the sixth month of its declaration, but no earlier than it’s fifth month. Then on a yearly basis starting from the anniversary of its declaration.

    Failing that, all emergency powers the president wields are revoked.

    In a true emergency, the assemblage of Congress is not an onerous task. Nor is the vote.

    It would take enough Republicans to overrule the presidential veto. But if done would get rid of this regimes use of the magic word “emergency.”
