Yeah! Get the state fighting itself!!

@VeroniqueB99

If ICE wasn't doing anything wrong, why did they run?

@bruce @VeroniqueB99 When most of the "ICE " have their faces covered, it's because they aren't legitimate law enforcement. In my observation.
@bruce @VeroniqueB99 if it was even ICE and not just some crazy militia nuts acting on who knows what authority (maybe)
@VeroniqueB99 "booked it"?
Sounds like a reasonable response to armed intrusions though, whatever the outcome was.
@VeroniqueB99 @masukomi Did this actually happen? I can’t find it on Reddit.
@VeroniqueB99 @masukomi This Bluesky post has been deleted. Why wouldn’t this person just link to the Reddit post if they actually saw it? This seems like a fantasy.
@jsit @VeroniqueB99 I also couldn’t find any news about ice in Boston getting swatted.
@Laukidh @jsit 🤷‍♀️ idk, but whether it did or not, it's a good idea.

@jsit

Well it's been reposted around and I'm certainly not going to spend any time researching this.

@VeroniqueB99 someone already said this on tumblr, but sending one racist state institution that breaks the law to stop a second racist state institution that breaks the law from breaking the law and being racist isn't the best idea
@kameleonnn iiidunno... why not? Might work...

@VeroniqueB99

I would guess they were fake ICE.

i read on r/massachusetts this morning that a boston resident noticed ICE activity in his neighborhood. he called 911 and reported several armed men without identification were in unmarked cars in the area. BPD sent a SWAT team and ICE booked it.

This is how we need to respond, every time. Say that they have tattoos too. weaponize the police state against itself.

@VeroniqueB99
Or in this case, the city police - who actually work in the community - get to chase off the jackbooted thugs who don't think the rule of law applies to them.

@VeroniqueB99 I was hoping it was true.

The problem with calling 911 is that local cops do show up, "to keep the peace" by blocking residents from stopping ICE from engaging in kidnapping, false imprisonment, assault, battery, and assorted other crimes, some local, some state, some federal. I understand that sometimes ICE calls the cops in advance. If calling 911 made a difference, I suspect ICE wouldn't call the cops to help.

@steter Well, it IS Boston, a Mafia hometown... It could well have been a mob attack or shootout in the making... And apparently the ICEstapo neglected to inform the lowly locals of their activities, given the response. @VeroniqueB99
@steter ...could be... too bad.
@VeroniqueB99 Ifeel like a lot of the time they're just self-appointed "ICE" folks like OathKeepers and the like. Totally need to be swept out.
@anildash For what it's worth, this did not happen

@jsit @anildash thanks for looking

I wanted it to be true which is sadly a pretty big red flag lately

@dannotdaniel @jsit yeah definitely gotta be mindful of anything that confirms biases

@VeroniqueB99

Only in this timeline does the phrase "iCE Swatting" mean something

@VeroniqueB99 Absolutely perfect response to hooded thugs
@VeroniqueB99 @anildash Is there any way to know if this really happened?

@VeroniqueB99 I feel

c o n t e m p t

towards the US regime when I am seeing and reading this.

@VeroniqueB99 I hope all the neighbors came out on their front porches and gave them a finger.
@tricotfeelya 👍 and we need to do a lot more than that...
@VeroniqueB99 Hell, get hi-fi systems out there and start playing gunfire sounds. Maybe we can get them to start shooting each other.
@lerxst 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣great idea!!
@VeroniqueB99 It's state vs. federal agency in this case. Basically civil war type of stuff.
@KarlHeinzHasliP good 👍 it's coming anyways...
