In reply to the discussion: NATIVE AMERICAN WOMAN SAVES DOOR DASH DRIVER FROM ICE [View all]in2herbs
(4,243 posts)34. I totally understand why we should remain non-violent but our non-violence will not last another 3years. Maybe
we should have a discussion about the level of resistance that is needed to defend ourselves against ICE, i.e., pepper spray, tasers, fire extinguishers. These are non-lethal.
If it was a man (not ICE) that was threatening me with harm I would respond and it wouldn't be with words, and it would be considered self-defense under the law. Why are we applying a double standard to ICE and this regime by letting them assault us without consequence???
