Every one is showing their faces, not like those cowardly ICE Apes.

And ICE left them alone.

Because the kind of people who join ICE are cowards who want to power trip on and abuse defenseless people.

Just remember -- if you're going to do this, bring friends!

One armed protester, the pigs will readily shoot as a 'valid target'. But if there are multiple armed protesters, the pigs know they can't shoot them all without any risk of return fire.

If you're going to open carry at a protest, bring at least 2 friends with you!

Has ice been in Indianapolis lately? They're not in every single city

I don’t give a fuck if it’s legal or not. Buy a gun.

Buy and train with your guns. Armed minorities are harder to oppress. Armed resistance is necessary to protect our society.

Yes! Even if you can't own a gun for legal/moral/mental health reasons, you can still do training like this! If you're not going to be armed, you can at least make a field medic of yourself. And then, even without a gun, you could be immensely valuable to the cause.

Alex Pretti would like a word. Oh wait, he can't tell you what he knows.

I think there's a big difference between 1 person conceal carrying a handgun and a group of people open carring long guns

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

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