If people start actually fighting against ICE, as in, with physical violence, Trump will enact martial law and take any remaining restrictions off of his goons.
While I don’t think we should show them our violent side, I would not evoke fears of martial law. Trump wants people to naturally follow the concept of martial law because he does not have the resources or support to enact it. It’s what AOC said; “Do not comply in advance”. Don’t believe any claims that the gestapo “could choose to make things worse”.
Kidnapping sole individuals, even presidents, turns out to not require quite as many resources as you’d think. They focus on these sole moments of fear because they don’t have the means to accomplish the pervasive military occupation they want. Hence very poorly directed National Guard deployments where the guard is puttering around unsure what’s expected of them (because Trump is afraid to say the quiet part out loud: Beat citizens)
He already assumes an alternate reality. He already made up BS to deploy National Guard. Now his Gestapo executes people in the street and they’re making up terrorist accusations.
He WILL absolutely declare martial law based on made up threats. It’s not a “if”, it’s only a “when”. His goons can already shoot people in the street in front of cameras, I don’t know how much more restrictions you believe they have.
I’m not tellling you to take arms, I have the privilege to not live in the US, but do you realize the escalation pace you’ve been through in 1 year, and you still think it won’t go further?
Exactly what “violence” was Renee Good guilty of?
These gestapo don’t need excuses or justification because they have no responsibility or consequences.
It’s not what OC means.

Didn’t stop him from kidnapping Maduro. He doesn’t give a shit about laws, neither does ICE.
Like he didn’t have the resources to push the invasion of Venezuela through Congress?

So fire 6 times instead of 3?
No, bring out the military in tanks and APCs and start gassing, arresting, or killing anybody who’s out on the streets after curfew.
Educate yourself about what totalitarian dictatorships do to protests.

He’ll find a way to do it anyways if that’s his wanted plan. Appeasement does not work.
