Sooner or later ICE goonsll swarm your own city. Minneapolis has shown us all how to resist wheen that happens. They made it up on the fly. The rest of us don't have to. We can learn from Minneapolis. We can organize in advance. Flooding the streets with protestors is not enough. Neither is being gunned down in cold blood on TV. We need to be able to feed those who can't leave their homes to shop for fear of being nabbed by ICE, just like the people who fed Anne Frank and her family shopped when they couldn't go outside to shop for feaar of being nabbed by Nazis.
These people are called "helpers" (in Spanish, "ayudanderos". Minneapolis has showed us the way. It *can* be done.
Setting up networks of helpers in advance is as simple as setting up phone trees was back in they day, easier actually. Call your friends. Start with neighbors, parents, PTA members, and churche members. Get a committment from whoever is willing to help. Organize. Make plans. Stockpile food, medical supplies, etc. in advance. Divide up areas of responsibility geographically so there's no redundance and everywhere gets covered. Set up a fundraising campaign. Stockpile food, medical supplies, etc.
There is no need for a single organization to oversee the distros. Anyone can set up an autonomous crew. We need two, three, many autonomous distros. That's what phones are for.
If ICE follows you, don't lead them to their intended victims. Lead them in circles. Waste thier time. If they pull you over don't physically resist. Save your righteous anger for later. There *will* be a later. Nuremberg style trials *will* be held. They'll all be legal. As much as the ICE goons morally deserve to be cruelly lynched, don't do it. The last thing Ameicans need to do is to start killing each other en masse again. It would get out of hand rather quickly. #CivilWar2 wouldn't be fought between states or regions. It would be fought between neighbors. It would be a bloodbath. It would also be America's national suicide. The world would pick our bones and we'd deserve it. A lot of people think we deserve it already.
"He will win who knows when to fight and when not to fight."

Now is not the time to fight. Now is the time to feed people.
Here's a sample what is happening in Menneapolis that we can learn from:

In the long run, logistics has far greater importance than tactics and strategy. Without logistics, tactics and strategy don't happen.

I stood in line and paid. Someone helped me put everything on my cart, and whispered thank you. I loaded my car and came back. I didn’t see her this time as I grabbed chicken ramen, cheddar crackers, chocolate bunnies for a treat. The line was shorter now and someone told someone else to stop complaining. I paid, loaded my car, got in and wept. There were three, now there are two.
