This is even more delightful than I thought. It was going to turn out. Fishing my stuff out to participate in this was totally worth it, and the censored version is fantastic, too!

Rest in peace Victor Manuel Diaz. He was a Latino immigrant kidnapped by ICE in Minneapolis. He died in ICE custody at Camp East Montana, Texas while facing deportation.

We have unjust immigration system that continues to take the lives of our neighbors while tearing families apart. 1/

For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.

The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.
Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping.
Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

If you’re going to run for office in MN and aren’t going to call for Abolishing ICE, it’s going to get harder and harder for you. The kids who today are building snow walls to keep out ICE and drawing pictures of ICE defeating machines will soon be of voting age, and they’re not going to forget this

At one point today, there were 283 Minnesota attorneys doing a training on how to file emergency habeas petitions to keep our neighbors from being shipped out of state and held indefinitely.

That would be the second largest law firm in the state. And that training was just put together this week.

MARY FUCKING MORIARTY
Q: Is this ICE officer immune to charges?

HENNEPIN COUNTY ATTORNEY MORIARTY: I can't speak to why the Trump administration says what it says. I can say the ICE officer does not have complete immunity here.

Thousands protest in Minneapolis after 37-year old Renee Good was killed by an ICE agent earlier in the day. Many holding up screen captured images from the viral video that showed the federal agent who shot and killed Good.

It was not "domestic terrorism.” It was state sanctioned violence.

A family will forever live with the pain caused by the admin's reckless and deadly actions.

Abolishing ICE is not enough. They must be held accountable.

No worries guys, we've prevented protests at the University of MN this Fall. We've sent an email and made a website.

Its as if they have no understanding why students protest. It makes me want to occupy a building, and I don't even like to leave my house.
