"ICE Watch does not spur violence; it reduces it. Itโ€™s based on de-escalation tactics that have long historical roots in American antiviolence & civil rights movements.

The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.

Research on gender is particularly relevant for understanding ICE, which has an overwhelmingly male workforce" โ€” Nicole Bedera

Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

TL;DR:
"the vast majority of men are only willing to engage in public violence if they feel like the people around them will approve of โ€” and reward them for โ€” that violence.

ICE Watch works because it surrounds men seeking approval with people loudly expressing their *disapproval*."
