One masked and heavily armed man even throws an object at the baby’s head while haphazardly clearing the passenger seat during the raid at a Home Depot.
Armed paramilitary then drive off with child after detaining her father, a U.S. citizen accused of assault.
The toddler (also a US Citizen) has since been reunited with her family.
This is a tactic used by concerned citizens to warn people in the area that paramilitary are abducting people. You may also often hear whistles.
You just said how the child was in fact in danger, so how would it be crying wolf?
Not everyone is ready or capable to resist in the same way. As a group, we have to provide resistance in any way we can and feel comfortable with. Sometimes that’s only voting, sometimes it’s documenting crimes, sometimes that’s protesting, and sometimes it might even mean using force. It’s important to let people resist oppression in their own ways because otherwise we will spend too much time infighting and strategizing instead of actually providing resistance. This is explored further in books like full spectrum resistance. Any resistance is welcome.
Ahhh, thanks for shedding light on the car horns. That makes a lot of sense.
My point about the guy yelling child endangerment is highlighted in this video. No one is acting on it. (Hopefully because the child isn’t in active danger while the guy is yelling it)
If you were to shout child endangerment in most parts of the world people would be acting on it. I fear that if some even less scrupulous individuals decided to abduct in an area prolific in ICE activity no one would bat an eye at someone legitimately calling that a child is in danger :/
I may just be holding people to unrealistic standards for the most part… I agree I’d rather people be doing ANYTHING to counter rather than simply ignoring it.
Have you seen the guns they’re carrying? You can’t help the kid if your brains are on the pavement.
