they are building an ICE detention facility near me [View all]

I went there to document it today.
very tall fence topped in razor wire. mirrored windows to prevent looking in. gate to let once vehilce thru at a time
I took photos to document it. employee admitted it was ICE at first then said all the vehicles in the lot belonged to contractor working to finish the interior.
he wasnt happy when i told him that makes him and the employees complicit in ICE's action and they will beheld accountable.

as john lewis said Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble.

my next plan is calling out republicans as fascists at the texas state capitol
