Musician playing ‘Ghostbusters’ outside ICE facility is arrested by agents: ‘Why are they targeting a clarinetist?’

@heidilifeldman My fear: they will seed peaceful protestors with gunmen who will murder a few federal agents to justify enforcement opening fire on the protesters.

Standard authoritarian playbook. Extremely effective at making peaceful protesters stay home. We've seen it happen so many times in other countries over the last century, never thought I'd one day fear it in the US...
