I am relieved that the overall sentiment seems to be heading back to a more rational position, probably because the reality of needing to resist is really settling in for some of us. You’re not helping the cause going out and openly blasting a pack of ICE goons. Not yet. All that would do RIGHT NOW is give them a broadly supported reason to crack down harder, and they want that but the optics are bad right now. The work to be doing right now is training, organizing, and preparing. Because WHEN(not if, unfortunately imo) it’s time to go weapons live I for one will want some type of support network making sure I continue to receive ammunition, food, supplies, and I would prefer there be some type of medical support in case I get shot. But if you think you’re John fucking Rambo then be my guest, make everything even worse before it needs to be.
