ICE has just posted 50 agents here for December. All around me, it's gone quiet, frozen, silent. Like these egrets, nobody moves.
Tomorrow there's training in how to ID, report, follow and document them, these predators. 😠
I'll be safe. Promise. 🙏

So ICE has left town, sort of, their car caravans and menacing behavior gone, replaced by plain clothes observers monitoring hardware stores and schools. You couldn't get a squeaky door fixed for love or money.
We'll get more direction tonight at our mtg, postponed from last week. "Good", sort of.

They're gone. Why?
-Local constabulary uncooperative
-Some businesses shuttered, their illegals sent home
-Illegals melted away
-Dems were organized, loud, stubborn -- united
-Easier victims elsewhere (e.g. Charlotte)
Will they be back? We're betting our Blue Sky they will be.
We'll be ready. 🦋

It isn't how I've felt, crawling up every day from the coal face, one eye swollen shut, clothes in shreds, hair and blood all over me, some of it mine. It's what I see/sense right now.
THIS makes me happy. What I see. And it's something surprising and it's joyful coming from the blackness:

Too many people would just say the claims of similarity are false. Exaggerations Lies. Meant to inflame rather than inform. Or maybe even say this is "violent rhetoric that needs to stop".

Should we? I mean, without the bots -- just with our own responses?
