Text: ICE agents are complaining that every time they go out wearing masks in unmasked cars with no uniforms or identification, protesters keep dumping pounds of glitter on them so that everyone can tell they're ICE for days afterwards.
Image below the text: a man in white shirt and black tie and glasses, with a raised hand, as if trying to get someone's attention.
Text on that image: who had "Glitter bombing the Gestapo" on their bingo card?
Super Soakers and water balloons full of bright orange permanent dye.
I wouldn't point anything vaguely gun shaped at them.
Garden sprayers would work but honestly they will probably shoot you the second something comes flying at them
Wouldn't bright pink be even better?
No, honey, I wasn’t at the strip club… I was, uh, an undercover ICE agent!
I'll take divorcee for $200, please, Alec!

Arm yourselves. This isn’t a joke.
They want millions dead.
Do you know that the KKK would disperse & never come back when would-be victims armed themselves and shot at them? A big element in the civil rights movement was vets coming back from the world wars with combat experience and firing back on their oppressors. Those are stories that get lost in the pEaCefUL pRoTeST propaganda, but arming up and defending their communities was a huge piece of the black civil liberties movement.
Anyway, point is, turns out people who hide behind masks to commit terroristic acts are truly, deeply chickenshit. I'm willing to bet ICE would do the exact same thing as the KKK if fired back upon.
The only good Nazi is dead.
Yes indeed
The 2 go hand in hand. The peaceful element provides cover and public cause support for the more militant elements. They also make it harder to concentrate forces to deal with them.
In turn, the militant add teeth to the peaceful element.
An intelligent government acts early, before the militant elements can come to bear. But for best results both (technically all 3, including political) are required.
Another good example are the Irish troubles. The IRA, while prominent, couldn't "win". The marches, and Sinn Fein did.
The people in charge want to fill private prisons with a vulnerable population who have no recourse as they have little or no rights. It's a grift at the expense of human lives. They don't actually care about immigration, they're just using white supremisists as pawns to achieve their goals. They'll also use them to eliminate political opposition to avoid eventual consequences if anyone with a spine ever gets back in power.
First they came for immigrants ...
This ends with millions dead. arm yourselves. Improve your family’s chance of survival
I actually have dual citizenship, soooo... Byyyeee
Will you marry me?
If you see an armed person with a mask, assume hostile intent. Call 911 and report masked people with guns.
I mean... yes but that's only going to slightly annoy. Sadly I think this is going to take actually using a "stand your ground" law correctly. IE how the hell can anyone argue against, I saw a gang of masked men with a gun coming towards me and I feared for my life.
The dream is for trigger-happy cops to show up and start shooting at armed individuals in masks.
Teach both groups a lesson about how to approach citizens.
Reality is, cops are as, if not more, likely to shoot at you or help ICE kidnap you to a concentration camp
Maybe report them as POC when calling 911 so that they racist responders get really amped up?
The problem is that the ICE are the trigger happy cops.. 🤷
Is this true? I haven’t seen articles or videos about it yet.
Best I can tell it originated from a satire website. It is still hilarious.
This is a memes community. Take anything and everything posted here with a grain of salt. Or glitter.
All I could find myself was a TikTok video making the same joke. It definitely seems like any story of it actually happening is made up, but I do hope some people take... inspiration from it.
Maybe this will give people some fabulous ideas.
Not that I've seen. But I want it to be true.
Use paintballs next. Give em some good ole' PTSD.
I was thinking aquarium dye.
We used to use tar and feathers... Oh how we've fallen as a civilization.
Honestly, this is way better because of the implications of what they've been doing. Also, their neighbors will know to avoid them.
Is there an online database for naming and shaming them yet?
I was thinking of this idea as well. How do you verify and vet all that shit. It could get some innocent people hurt.
If you see someone who claims to be ice, cut their pinky finger off. Can't hide that.
Okay ,so if they covered in glitter, they're ICE. If not, they're kidnappers for god knows what. I think it's imperative people be able to distinguish their kidnappers, since the federal government is unable to do this.
me walking out of a strip club after getting a bunch of dances: I'M NOT ICE! I'M JUST A PERVERT!
Shit! An ICE agent!
No honey, I am a stripper.
It's even worse during pride month !
Cue glitter being declared a weapon of mass destruction.
More like weapon of mass fabulousness!
If I lived in an area where these thugs were operating and was concerned for my safety I’d consider carrying something like This long before I’d consider glitter. Let these thugs explain to family & friends why their faces look like blue/purple raccoon masks.
Wow, those are cheap!
tyrannical problems require fabulous solutions
