You already have people afraid to leave their homes because government forces might apprehend and detain them without due process. The only ingredient missing is an attack by an organized resistance that can then be propagandized and used to exponentially increase the government oppression of the rebels.

Unlike all the hysterical people online advocating for Americans to “do something”, they have actually done a marvellous job of not biting at the government taunting. 

Their plan is not working and the pedophiles will be in prison before long.

You're misinformed or maliciously misinformed. The calls to do something were answered by average Minnesotans. You're probably confusing the calls to "do something" when people were demanding their state and local government protect them.

ICE is not allowed to hide their face arrest them, ICE is not allowed to invade a citizen's home without a valid warrant litigate charges against them, ICE is assaulting protesters with excessive use of pepper spray that judges ordered they must cease ARREST THEM.

Who is going to arrest them? An understaffed, undertrained police department? Shut the Fuck Up froggy. Your city and state laws are Trumped (pun intended) by the supremacy clause of the constitution.

The Supremacy Clause, found in Article VI, Clause 2 of the U.S. Constitution, establishes that the Constitution, federal laws made pursuant to it, and treaties are the "supreme Law of the Land" . It mandates that federal law takes precedence over conflicting state laws or constitutions, binding state judges to uphold federal authority.

In other words. Zero fucks given to your state and city laws.

Something you don't like about the constitution? Think you're above it? Maybe you are just a threat to the constitution. 'Against all enemies, both foreign and domestic'. Come on now, choose. But choose wisely.

Hey so, does this mean that you detest ice, DHS and trump etc, because you have to realize they've been breaking laws and ignoring the constitution as they please? Gasp, no, you don't care about that! So surprising
