Is ICE even there in the first place? This is an unconfirmed video.

A problem doesn't have to exist in a place before people protest.
ICE is everywhere. Do a simple internet search
What do you mean when you say that the video is unconfirmed?

The protesting isn't the problem. The encouragement of having guns is.
Yeah, it does look like they're still in Indianapolis. I thought they pulled out. My bad.
That video looks weird to me. Watch in the middle, the people look disjointed. It could be a higher res than I'm used to too, so it looks weird. I would like others to confirm it.

Absolutely fucking not. The encouragement of having guns is the solution.

I support the encouragement of people to exercise their constitutional rights. The same way that doctor Martin Luther King Jr did.

He was not allowed by the state to purchase a firearm himself, but he did hire armed men from the Deacons for Defense and Justice to help protect protests.

I can confirm you’re dropping this weird line of argument lol.
