Anti-ICE protesters led by paid activists march across NYC in latest push against immigration enforcement
Opinion by Khristina Narizhnaya, Rich Calder • 13h

More than 200 people marched in Brooklyn Saturday to protest President Donald Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration, the latest in an orchestrated, often violent displays taking place nationwide.

The protestors, led by lefty elected officials and paid activists — marched along Fourth Avenue in Sunset Park, chanting in English and Spanish, “Say it loud. Say it clear. Immigrants are welcome here.”

Some carried signs with such slogans as “Families belong together and” “Protect immigrants.”
 
“We say ‘no’ to Trump’s disgusting deportation agenda,” said Councilwoman Alexa Aviles (D-Brooklyn) “We know what he is doing with ICE. It’s terrible, and it is violent. It is unlawful, and it is not what our country stands for. So we are here to say ‘no to ICE.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

The anti-ICE movement must be a world of hurt if they have resorted to rent-a-protestor agencies. savme

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Maybe they were getting their rent-a-mob from the day worker pool at their local building supply store... :shrug:

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
