For us (Canadians) if we find out there are Canadian companies supporting ICE in the US, it’s past time to tell our employers and other businesses we frequent that we don’t want them doing business with them.
And to refuse to support those Canadian companies that have contracts with ICE.

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.

Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

I know they’re trying to turn this shooting into Dealey Plaza with their desperate camera angles and excuses for the murderous ICE officer but how do they explain the subsequent refusal to allow a doctor to reach the car? And lying that they already had medics there? All on tape.

I wish people asked this question at the pressers. Noem keeps repeating that they are here for "safety". Make her explain what that means. Why were officers on school property? Why were they attacking staff and students? How is this "safe"?

The bitter pill, however, is that the updated LP8.1 vaccine is available privately, with a price tag that beggars belief.
Of course NHS resources are limited, but this should NOT mean two-tier healthcare.
It could also be a false economy; no vax costs more than a hospital stay.
