Gonna say that when ICE uses the new rocket launchers they got this week? Your life is about to become a horror movie, and you’re “happy”

Hey, you do you.

So what exactly is the answer to ice rocket launcher? I still endorse a peaceful protest

What do you mean? Do you think everything is going to be fine? Ice is going to kill groups of people when Trump declares martial law in a few months. Any “resistance” will just get shot at.

I know the “this can’t be my country” is strong with the centers.

The solution is to make sure that the Trump administration cannot declare martial law. Now, I’ll let you decide what that means— As long as Trump is alive he can declare martial law.

Then organize with other protesters to stop trump from declaring martial law.

You mean go kill him, right?

I don't think you need us to attempt to kill trump. One guy got pretty close
