I would approve of it much more than what's going on now.  At the least I could respect the people doing it.

There are always extremists who exploit protests for their own ends. These people are useful to whoever is against the protest, they can be shown breaking the law or with offensive slogans or signs, which is then used to blacken the name of the entire protest movement.

What do you mean by "what's going on now" that you disapprove of and don't respect? I'm not aware of any counteractions to the ICE stuff.

I really liked Oex's summary and I do agree with it.

I am still worried on average people have it too comfortable to risk going against the rapidly forming autocratic state. Yes I do based that on myself as well. Would I risk my freedom and life and thus and future and life of my wife and child by resisting, when I could just lay low and continue my middle class lifestyle, or emigrate and do so somewhere else? Maybe in the UK I would as it's a home worth defending and a place that could hope to turn good again, but I already GTFO-ed once instead of staying to struggle on, so who knows.

I have nothing but respect for the people heckling and obstructing ICE in Minessota - especially since the shooting they know they are in mortal danger doing so.
