14. By now this should be obvious...

Since it's unlikely the Cops or the National Guard in each state will do their jobs the people will have to do it instead. I lived through the 60's anti-war protests. What was obvious then as now was that the people we elected weren't going to get us out of Vietnam and end the illegal drafting of young men to be cannon fodder in an undeclared war. The Cops certainly weren't going to help anyone but the corrupt politicians and the National Guard were too busy murdering innocent victims in places like Kent State. The people had to force change through confrontational protests and actions.
For instance if there is a gathering of10 ICE agents there should be at least 10 times that number, at least 100 citizens there.
100 ICE agents = 1000 citizens.
2000 ICE agents = 20,000 citizens.
If not more. Overwhelming force of numbers is needed.

If that causes ICE to become confrontational against citizens.......well someone needs a beating.

If local and state Cops won't do their jobs and arrest these criminals then the people are going to have to respond.

Sadly as it was in the 60's, that's where we are with this criminal administration and its goons.
