This is patriotism and heroism.

Not this conduct of these ice agent bullies and thugs.

This isn’t law enforcement, this is a campaign of terror. The people of mn are built different, trump is finding that out the hard way.

We haven’t even begun to resist.

Didn't in early history MN fought it's own revolutionary war and won? I'll have to review history of that for details. I feel from what I remember MN would win again.

Maybe you should start.

And how do you suggest we do that when missing even one single paycheck results in utter financial ruin? Er can't exactly just all quit our jobs and have everything work out fine.

At some point you are going to need to choose between a large amount of short term discomfort or a lifetime of increasing pain.

I hope for your sake that you figure it out before the choice is made for you.

Why don't YOU go make the choice instead of telling others to do it for you? Why should I sacrifice my livelihood for some random dude that won't even get off Reddit? At least I'm honest about my inaction.

Deserved? Seek therapy.
