I am not surprised after he interrupted a church ⛪️ service along with anti #ICE 🧊 protesters.

If you are going to protest ICE 🧊 agents, peacefully protest ICE 🧊 while they are out in the streets. Not at their house, & not at house of worship.

@darnell
Wow. I respect your point of view as always but I really can't disagree hard enough, both on the direct action itself and on being able to cover the disturbance as a journalist.

@darnell "peaceful" protests doesn't prevent ICE from shooting people anyway, so why does it matter if protestors interrupted a church service

@CathyBikesBook Because you lose the narrative, & turn public opinion against you. Also, the last thing we need is justification for the Insurrection Act to be used.

That would turn the US military & any conservative militia against the general population.

Not an ideal scenario.
