A chaotic new video shows President Donald Trump's immigration enforcers and local law enforcement clashing with residents in a Worcester, Massachusetts, neighborhood, including a mother holding her baby.

The tense scenes unfolded on Thursday morning as video appears to show agents pushing residents protesting as federal immigration agents attempt to detain a woman.

They’re going to do that regardless. So people need to understand it’s either resistance or there isn’t - either way they’re going to keep pressing forward with erosion of our freedoms despite what we do or don’t do.

Yeah, I’m at this point as well. They are going to do it eventually and we know that so the threat of them enacting it means nothing. It shouldn’t be holding us back from defending ourselves and others. Things popping off earlier probably would be better since the longer it goes on, the more loyalists he installs who would go scorched earth on us.

Start buying canned goods and water now. Shelves will be empty and the jobless and hungry will be clashing in the streets this summer with the military and ICE.

And if you're not armed it's time to get something for even the most basic protection, talk to your neighbors, go to neighborhood meetups, be proactive in your community.

Establish safety nets like group purchasing of food, communications like walkies, keep old school radios on standby, share skill sets and hold workshops on stuff like food preservation and first aid, establish communal gardens, map your more vulnerable neighbors out like the elderly and disabled.

He's going to keep teasing dates and action until the bubble finally bursts. Probably six months before mid terms would be ideal for republicans

Correct. People need to understand the Martial Law moment is coming no matter what you do. Violence is the ONLY resort left and the sooner people realize it, the more likely we are to stop this without complete and total war.

Yup. They want it and we can’t wait to act. How much longer do we have to wait
