I'm afraid this fascist lot doesn't give the tiniest shit about protests. At some point, what needs to happen will have to involve violence, meaning the fuzz - and possibly the army - will have to side with the dissenters, which is unlikely to happen anytime soon.

But yeah, it's a start and that's something.

In at least a couple states, the police have said they won't follow demands from ICE without a court order. It could be a lot worse. Progress is still progress.

You lack imagination. Or maybe you’re understandably having an anxiety attack about what’s going on. Either way, we don’t have to crab bucket about it.
