Dress up as ICE with the homies and detain ICE agents in your basement, or just a hole dug into the ground.

lol ... that would actually be hilarious

Get a bunch of guys and cosplay as ICE agents and join their raids and gatherings and confuse the hell out of them.

Imagine 20 no name, non identifiable ICE agents raiding a place, then coming out of the building to 100 ICE agents that look like them mingling in with their group. The cosplayers just play along, making orders, taking orders, following, arguing, screaming, shouting, pushing and just causing general mayhem.

Maybe it should be a thing we do at protests. If everyone looks like ICE, how will the pigs know who to beat up and arrest? 🤔

It's a good idea because ICE agents are not identifying themselves .... so they would have a hard time arguing that anyone is impersonating an officer or agent.

I'm sure they would bend and break the rules over it anyway ... but what choice do you end up with? .. don't do anything and they put you in danger .. or dress up like them and you're still in danger anyway but at least you're doing something.

Imagine a group of fake ICE agents all pretending to fight each other?! What the hell response would that inspire? 🤣

… violence and a few friendly fire causalities. It’s all they know how to do.

This is one of the more interesting ideas I've heard here in a minute... I like the cut of your jib, mate ⛵

IDK how but I want to get the idea that antifa is dressing up as ICE agents into the conservative consciousness

Someone should make a Monty Python style sketch out of this

Springtime for ICE Agents

That's literally the Underground Railroad. People hid slaves, even in northern states because it was legal to capture slaves there and drag them back, despite slavery itself being illegal in those states. So people hid slaves and helped them get to Canada, where they could tell slave catchers to fuck off and go home. Our country has some dark historical truths...

Similarly, it was also really common for free Black people to be kidnapped in northern states and enslaved.

Solomon Northrop, if you have seen Twelve Years a Slave (and everyone needs to, we need to make it part of every high schoolAmerican history class), might have been captured again. Wiki gives the only reason that this is unlikely that he was probably too old at that point to be worth it. His kidnappers faced no consequences.

I wonder how many people saved up to buy their freedom “legally” and were taken back. There are so many stories we’ll never know.
