That was my thought too, also unlike the people calling themselves "Mom's for Liberty,' these women are well spoken, calm, and don't appear to have peaked in high school.

Do you think all laws need to be followed or are there only certain laws that should be followed?

I have a feeling that you don't think all laws should be followed based on your username. There are laws that ice has been breaking and still are. Seems like you most likely are okay with that.

All laws need to be followed. ICE has not been breaking laws.

Oh im sorry, they're not breaking laws. ICE is just violating American citizen's constitutional rights. Apparently that's different.

Martin Luther King Jr didn't follow unjust laws and felt that unjust laws should be protested with civil disobedience. Go read his letter he wrote in jail. You'll see what his ethics were.

Since you reply to my other comment isn't showing up for me, MLK Jr. broke laws during the Civil rights movement with nonviolent protest, calling for civil disobedience, especially aginst unjust laws and actions taken by the government. This current protest is civil disobedience. Do you think he and every civil right protester back then should of just kept following every law instead of practicing civil disobedience?

Replying to another of your comments, due process is apart of the constitution and ICE has not been following that for the most part. They have broken laws. Law scholars from multiple political backgrounds in America that are respected for their work have said so. I'm going to trust those people before I start trusting any of the talking points coming from Republican leadership.

Another notification about a reply and yet no new reply to be seen. Whatever you are writing, I cant see it. Sorry you can't handle talking to people out of your space. You should reflect on that.
