It's hard to overstate how ell-organized the portland march that got gassed was... organizers made the crowd promise to be peaceful, said the march would slow in front of the ICE building but not stop, that we would stick to one chant (ICE Out). They did absolutely everything right and got gassed.

Something to have in your back pocket when people tell you to be docile, so you don't give them "an excuse"

To be crystal clear, by the way, disciplined nonviolent protest can be extremely effective. But if the state has already decided to terrorize you, they aren't going to let nonviolence stop them
