The last couple of days have been relatively quiet in Minneapolis.

These stories are relentless, and even when we aren’t seeing ICE with our own eyes, we’re carrying the weight of hearing these stories — carrying each other’s burden of witness. The story-sharing is both a part of the weight we carry and a part of the healing we do together.
It’s hard. But I do feel like I repaired something in myself over the weekend, first watching the right-wing hate march get humiliated and then making time with friends.
Ready to continue.

Unfortunately, I’m hearing what @paulference said through other channels as well: it appears to be nothing more than a geographic shift. Someone just posted that Roseville (north / northeast suburb) is “swimming in ICE” right now.
Godspeed to the suburbs right now. I hope we’ve been able to pass along enough of what we learned here in the heart of the city. The sprawl is going to make rapid response a lot harder out there….
(If you can’t view post: it just says ICE was swarming the southwest MSP suburbs yesterday.)

@martinvermeer @elala should have taken my own advice, sorry
. The 404 is happening for me too. Strangely it's working in my app. Here's the screenshot: -
@inthehands
It would be useful for the city or state to post officers near protest gatherings with specific instructions to protect lawful activity from lawless ICE agents.@n1xnx @inthehands They won't because they're closet Nazis, and they know it would devolve into hot civil war (unlike right now, which is just cold civil war). The constitutional crisis is here, but everyone knows that pointing guns at ICE, even if it is legally warranted, is crossing a rubicon.

@inthehands Unfortunately, I can confirm it's a geographic shift. They were swarming the southwest metro yesterday.
@paulference @inthehands Metro as in the region, or Metro as in "let's get out of this wind and harass people in the subway"?

@linuxandyarn @inthehands Region, we have no subway.

…except for that one airport stop, which always brings me joy (despite or maybe because of the preposterously long escalator)! -
