They only wanted to show the first page of a three page warrant because it was unsigned.
I did love this part.
I love that there is a crowd following around the ICE agents with a megaphone informing people of their rights.
This will make for a wonderful segment in a Behind the Bastards episode. If we get back onto a decent timeline, the crew will be able to offer up some of the most delicious absurdities.
This is my new favorite fact. I'm so going to buy a megaphone if I find out ICE is in my neighborhood.
How do you show someone a signed warrant without them opening their door? Sure, you can open it a little and slide it through the gap, but what if you don't have a chain lock and are afraid they'll force their way in?
Hold it up for them to see it through a window? Though in this case the person had already gone outside to talk to the ~~gestapo~~ er, ICE agents.
Hold it up to the window ?
It gives me hope that folks are tailing ICE nazis like this.
If I ever see those fuckers in my neighborhood it'll be the final straw to get me on next door, the city's subreddit, and whatever else I can get my hands on. And I'm gonna warn as many people as I can.
I wish there was a more formalized group for it though.
I'm honestly impressed. That's a brave position to be in.
Yeah, gutsy as fuck.
Yeah seriously. Boundless respect.
Trump loves the uneducated. He likes his voters dumb and his victims unaware of their rights. Good for the megaphone crowd.
Also the classic fascist play to immediately start tearing down government agencies so people aren’t sure what their rights are at any given moment. As you said, props to these people with megaphones
