Makes my soul feel good to see this kind of protest activity pissing off the bad guys. Although I'm half expecting some attempt to outlaw these frog costumes in the near future. #politics #protests
@WarnerCrocker Friend of mine in the know worries now that, since one ICE guy managed to find the opening in the costume and shoot gas into it, that this will now deter costuming.
@GottaLaff I saw that. Although apparently on Amazon sales are still jumping. (Pun intended.)

@WarnerCrocker lol

Well good. Hopefully others won't catch on.

@GottaLaff @WarnerCrocker I've got a trex I'm planning on wearing on the 18th.
@jmaggard @GottaLaff @WarnerCrocker
I too am a trex! A blue one. Rawr! I need to make my sign, which I think is just going to read "OMG, where do I even start?"
@GottaLaff @WarnerCrocker Need to come up with an Apollo 13 style way to rig a lightweight charcoal canister to the opening...

@GottaLaff @WarnerCrocker

Wear a mask underneath and solved…

@xs4me2 I think there was a reason they couldn't. It isn't that simple, per my contact. But hopefully, they're wrong.

@WarnerCrocker

@GottaLaff @WarnerCrocker

In that case, Amphitifa needs to redesign the costumes ;)

@GottaLaff @WarnerCrocker it didn't work at all.

@mrcompletely @GottaLaff @WarnerCrocker

Yeah, the kid in the original blue caped frog costume said it kinda tasted like peppermint, but that he was fine, he wore the costume for another 3 hours.

@GottaLaff perhaps not. Having more folks in costumes means it is harder for ICE to go one by one, especially if the folks in costume are with others who are not in costume who act as chaperones & look outs. @WarnerCrocker
@WarnerCrocker If they outlaw frog costumes, we'll hit em with more unicorns!
@WarnerCrocker I’m loving the new Antifa battle uniforms.

@WarnerCrocker

Wear goggles and a tight fitting respirator inside the costume.

@WarnerCrocker

I halfway think I have seen some ‘excuses’ bandied about (in writing from supporting govt) by those participating in this ‘enforcement’ as to what constitutes a ‘infraction’ calling for ‘action’ besides merely being a reporter with a camera that is.

Could include dress, sunglasses (irony much?) jaywalking, ‘disturbing the peace’ by speaking or where you are standing. Hiding your face to protect yourself by being doxed by vigilantes. Sanctioned by local and state ‘authorities’

@WarnerCrocker Frogs are *obviously* antifa.... Trumpistan will make them all croak...
@WarnerCrocker Wouldn't be surprised if MAGA said protestors couldn't wear masks.
@WarnerCrocker Canadian frogs are cheering u on🐸🐸♥️♥️

@WarnerCrocker

there is precedent... after a shooting in CO where the gunman in a batman costume killed or wounded over a dozen people, there was debate about limiting gun magazine sizes but nothing was ever done on background checks or any gun control measures.

instead, theatres banned batman costumes...

@WarnerCrocker original Pepe would be proud

@WarnerCrocker

If ICE is allowed to hide their faces, so are protesters.

@Npars01 @WarnerCrocker Yep. They use rubber bullets & tear gas, we should use rubber bullets & tear gas, right NRA?

@RiaResists @WarnerCrocker

Protesters don't need rubber bullets & tear gas.

Protesters need public support, media reporting, and attention.

Protesters need ways to push back against the billionaires funding Trump's corrupt GOP.

Oct 18th and #NoKings

Start defunding the Project 2025 billionaires:

Bradley, Koch, Coors, Scaife, Mellon, Seid, Uihlein.

Larry Ellison, Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Rebekah Mercer, Omeed Malik, David Sacks, Winklevoss

Ken Griffin. Paul Singer. Stephen Schwarzman

@Npars01 @RiaResists All true, Nicole. However the media isn't a reliable source of support any longer. I'm all for #NoKings but they need to think beyond weekend protests in the streets. I'm not advocating violence, but If things are going to change it is going to require sacrifice most are uncomfortable or unwilling to make. I keep dreaming of an ongoing #NoKingsBlackout but even I think that's a fantasy

@Npars01 @WarnerCrocker Amen to all that.
In the before times I wrote letters to big agriculture, food processors, etc to ask them to consider the environment in their packaging. Wal-mart, Target- all those guys.
Then I learned about the Koch bros and joined movements to stop them. Now I know about Leonard Leo & the others & have called & written networks.
I’m very good at boycotting & protesting 😊
Before all those times it was about protecting our oceans & rainforests.

@WarnerCrocker
I agree ! Frog costumes are so invisible. Blend in and able to sneak up on the Meal Team6 ICE thugs.

Just too embarrassing for the corrupt gov’t

Release the #epsteinfiles

@WarnerCrocker I have frogs everywhere? (reference, not real question)
@WarnerCrocker I recall how effective the street dance parties were during the tense days of ballot counting after Presidentual election. (Anyone remember the dancing mailbox in Philly?!) Smart move to stage protests this way.
Raining Frogs

I don't know much about frogs. Water born, gills, cold blood, moist skin Compromise from fish to lizard Squishy science project, redolent of formaldehyde I am not so simple. Surging ahead of time with a plan More Earth than Water More Air than Earth My mind's in the stars; see me waving from constellations, from outside. Solemn petals float on deep roots of imagination. Totem tales inspire awe -- gaping chasms. We know we will fall, always, forever. Sacrifice, the price for salvation -- no wise One would love us, sad, ugly, cruel.

Laurie’s Substack
The drama is ribbiting.
@WarnerCrocker Make Trump's law's seem as silly as they are

@WarnerCrocker I'm genuinely confused, are they reclaiming Pepe the Frog from the Alt-Right?

Matt Furie fights to bring back Pepe the Frog from the dark forces who stole him.

BBC
@grahamperrin They never owned it they just wanted us to think they did. The creator of pepe disagrees too!

@cakemonster understood, thanks.

What I can't tell is whether the frog costumes represent Pepe.

@grahamperrin yes, even if not officially the fact you and many others will have that question makes that association real, and many will buy the costume for it's meme like quality creating that reality.

@WarnerCrocker

They'll probably say costumes that disguise your identity are promoting violent antifa terrorism, while gestapo military costumes that disguise identity are perfectly legal and will save America.

@WarnerCrocker

When signs are de-frogged, only frogs will have signs.

@WarnerCrocker
One thing is certain, we'll never give in
Side by side, hand in hand
We all, stand, together!
