The piece is overall pretty good, but this bothsidesism meets waffledom is why the NYT makes so many of our heads explode. It's an incoherent paragraph; I wonder if editorial rewrote something to create this fuzziness about who what where why when.

Today at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, a woman tried to drive down the street where a protest had broken out in front of a home ICE was raiding, saying she had a doctor apt to get to. ICE agents busted out her windows, cut off her seatbelt, and pulled her out before arresting her.

Protester is 21 yrs old. ICE agent dragged him and held his head down in his own pool of blood, mocked him about losing his eye. They fired pepper pellets at the HEAD of a witness recording the incident.

4 male ICE agents tackle a woman U.S. citizen—lift her off ground with no concern over groping her breast or exposing her midriff. "Help me! Help me!" she cries out. "Check my ID!" Agents shove her into back of SUV hitting her head—literally run away from scene of crime. St. Paul, Minnesota.

It’s telling when journalists are able to find the active voice. In my mind, the feds are the aggressors, but even if you wanted a more “neutral” framing, you’d make them both subjects in the sentence (Feds and Protestors Clash) rather than making the feds the helpless object of protestor action.

MASS NON COOPERATION WORKS. We’ve seen it. When the community responds in mass to ICE raids, or brave Americans refuse to open the door so ICE can take someone who has run inside, the Gestapo retreats. Be brave. Make noise. Link arms with your community. Refuse to give up your neighbors.

Congress should pass a law requiring agents to show their faces, identify themselves, & wear their badges. It’s not agent safety we have to worry about these days. End so-called Kavanaugh stops & admin warrant-based forced entry into homes too. Let’s have a Constitution.

In the Inferno, Dante claims that a human being can commit a sin so grievous that their soul is immediately pulled down to the deepest layer of hell, & a demon takes control of their body until they die. That’s what happens to every ICE agent when they sign their contract. There’s no soul left.
