ICE Is Cold

Protesting is for someone with a heart!

Oops, did I say that? That can smart.

Sometimes I wonder when I hear the rhetoric.

People paid to protest? I don’t believe that ick

and never will. I have been in protests, and they all cost me,

and I didn’t always benefit, but it was the right place to be

the right thing to do. Did they make a difference? Yes.

High school. We couldn’t wear pants to school, I guess

it was only skirts, and the style was mini skirts. Vietnam War.

Done soon after the protests. And others. Several more.

I lived close to Duluth, and when a cause would come up,

the hippies would come out of the woodwork. That filled my cup.

The issue got attention. I was there. Never paid.

Different situation, I hear. No. Not really. Yes, there was no raid.

And still it was a cause that needed attention, just like this one

The real cause is not criminal illegal aliens. Didn’t see anyone

who was accused of that. I saw innocent people gunned down.

Murdered. Lies were made up about the two people. The clown

said terrorists — easy to claim, when the ignorant want to believe you.

The truth is that someone wants the chaos to lead to more violence.

The government is liable for all that has occurred here. All a squew.

Well crooked, not in alignment of right. The nonviolence

from the protesters is something that would be hard to do

when taking so much from ICE. A day of remembrance

for two people murdered in Minnesota in cold blood

by the government! Will be coming to a town near you soon.

Take the focus off the Epstein files and the criminal man in the moon

Maybe he can get a medal for that, too, as it is looking

like another distraction. Awards and medals for everything,

and yet meaning nothing. A distraction, so no action is taken.

Wake up, people. You really can’t be that dumb. Awaken

and smell the roses. They aren’t smelling very pretty right now.

Abolish ICE Now — No more funding — Contact your congressmen now!
