Something to keep in mind about Minnesotans protesting unarmed with guns being pointed at them is that they more or less ALL have access to a gun, but are choosing not to bring one.
Bravery isn't holding a gun. Bravery is standing up to other people holding a gun.

This is an *incredible* video. Share with all your vet/active duty friends and milfan guys in particular.
Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.
“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

Things are really really hard in Minneapolis. But at least the revolution has a really friggin great playlist.

Don’t let this White House lie to you. Believe what you see.
Alex Pretti was trying to help a woman off the ground. Then immigration agents tackled, shot, and killed him.
It’s time for them to get the hell out of MN.

ICE just shot another one of my neighbors. They had the person on the ground, being beaten by several agents, and then fired multiple shots. In front of the donut shop where we like to get donuts for our kids.

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.
If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.
The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

With ICE on our streets, many of our Latino small businesses are seeing noticeably less foot traffic this holiday season.
If you can, show up for our neighbors by shopping local at places like Mercado Central - home to dozens of vibrant mom and pop shops.

Earlier this year, I met a Croatian journalist who was in the US doing a piece on America’s politics and I asked her what surprised her. And she said, “What you all call the far left is just being normal.”
