ICE Going Door to Door in Grand Rapids, MI today

Multiple reports, pics, and videos on social media today. ICE is terrorizing Grand Rapids today. They're on the West Side and in Godwin Heights near the high school currently. They're attacking people who answer their door they're stopping cars. Be careful out there.

So this isn't Minneapolis, this is coming to your town and your neighborhood.

I don't mean that as snarky, I am serious.
Plus, keep your cell charged for recording. It is best to record horizontal vs vertical.

Call our representatives PLUS Sen. Schumer. We need Schumer to step with courage now. Schumer, organize the Senators to vote no on refunding DHS unless ICE is reformed or ended.

I truly think people don't get it yet, ICE is completely out of control and they're not even fully staffed yet, they're going to double or triple in numbers from what they are now. They now have orders to go door to door in violation of the Constitution and they're doing just that. They're going through neighborhoods and kicking down doors of houses that they don't even know who lives there. They're beating women, children, the elderly and hauling them away without even knowing who they are because they get paid by the head whether or not that head is an immigrant or not.

If something isn't done, everyone will know someone attacked or beaten by ICE. Your neighborhood isn't exempt.

Every region which didn't vote majority Trump is a target.

They have shown us who they are and what this is.
Recently Noem spoke from a podium behind the logo 'one of ours, all of yours'. How this didn't receive the coverage it deserved amazes me. The phrase is credited to Nazis in 1942 when they massacred an entire Czech village in retaliation for the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich.

are insignificant compared to them militarizing the entire force of U.S. soldiers, and turning them loose under martial law.

Person: May I help you?
ICE: hey, we got this cool deal that if you allow us to deport you to any where in the world he will pay for your plane ticket and give ya $3k. What do you think?
Person: Give me the $3k and I will think it over.

insecure pussies, going where they won't get resistance that they can't possibly handle.

Why Minneapolis, or grand Rapids???????? Small population.........
Going to small cities to overwhelmingly roll out his Insurrection Act/Martial Law???????

Even Minneapolis frightened them off..so go to an even smaller population community??????

*************************************************
Why not NYCity or LA??????????

NY City Population: 8,500,000.

LA Population: 10,000,000.

Minneapolis: 500,000

St Paul 313,000


Terrorism is used to strike fear into the masses, especially Domestic Terrorism...........

I would love to round up all of ICE, Border Patrol, Proud Boy's etc give them parachutes, put them on planes and air drop them into actual war zones, and see them cower when confronted with REAL frikken resistance, esp ones that shoot back....
