Civil resistance isn't working. The trump government is stomping all over you. Defend yourselves FFS. "Don't tread on me".

It's working fine. ICE morale and recruitment are both in the toilet, and it seems like every day we get more incidents of ICE actually being driven off by increasingly savvy local resistance. Meanwhile, every documented incident of unjustified ICE thuggery is driving public opinion further against ICE.

Honestly, it's working far better than I would have dared hope. But, as soon as protesters start shooting ICE, public opinion will swing back the other way, and Trump will finally have his justification to fill the streets with actual military.
