What would you do if you knew your neighbor was an ICE/DHS agent?

  Report him to immigration authorities for being in my country illegally.

  Check if they’re on ICE List and if not, get proof and if they are ICE, get them on here.

  Whatever I would do, I most certainly wouldn’t post it on the internet.

  I’m not going to directly confront them, but I would be sharing his movements & address as widely as I’m legally allowed to.

  Go to his barbeques. Invite him to yours.
  Throw him a suprised birthday party.
  Invite him to his favorite sportsball competition.
  Become his best friend.
  Talk to him about every aspect if his life and work.
  Record every conversation.
  Send anything useful to a news reporter, or prosecutor.

    Well, maybe not a surprise party, he might not react well to surprises.

  There are so many LEOs in my building that I have overheard them discussing “work stuff” in the hallways.

  You can’t just like… move whenever you want… there’s a lot of packing needed.

  So first step, install more cameras ASAP, at every angle, front and back. Sync to somewhere offside to secure the footage from deletion.

  I mean it doesn’t really stop anything, but at least if something happens, we can go to the press (hopefully we survive to tell the tale).

  I know a lot of y’all are gonna suggest violence, but since my entire family is not born here and we aren’t white, if we were to use violence, that would definitely fuel more xenophobia, so that’s not really an option for my family, we don’t have the [white + birthright] privilage like many lemmings on here to just use violence, or even any words that could be interpreted by people as “violent”. Like we’d have to keep a low profile.

  The realistic thing to do is just mention in passing, that we are all legal and most of us have citizenship. I speak English without a foreign accent so I could probably get them to remain neutral and not immediately start aggression… Depending on how shit of a luck I get. I’d just have to hope they are the “less shitty” of the “ICE Agents”.

  I’d have to act much nicer even tho I really don’t like doing that.

  And like… really the plan is just to fast track all plans to move before any neighbor disputes happen.

  (Not gonna move out of the country tho, this has been my home for a long time and I don’t feel like leaving)

  I’d probably try to understand the psychology behind why they joined ice. I’d be like: “so… what made you choose that job?”

  If they say something like: “violent criminals”, then I’d say: “well, idk why you get that idea from, but most of us just want to live a peaceful life here, most immigrants, even those undocumented, don’t do crime or cause trouble”

  And to support this argument, I definitely cannot start attacking them, even if they are ice agents and I don’t like what they are doing right now, since that’d just make the far-right’s “immigrant = violent” rhetoric even stronger.

  So if you’re white… and you feel like using violence… sure go ahead if you want.

  But I’m non-white and foreign-born and I ain’t doing that violence stuff.

  Just friggin’ ask him.

  “Yo, you a cop or what?”

  I’m pretty sure he’ll answer. No rules against just asking someone.

  I’d just get as cold a look on my face as he gives. These kinds of people ugly mug everyone, as a general form of defense so I just give it right back. Look once with a derisive sneer and turn your attention to something else you deem more important. Leave it at that.

  He might just have resting douche face but otherwise be harmless. But yeah, I’d definitely start putting up signs in my windows/around my building. I’m just like that.
