On the 9th of June, protesters showed up in front of City Hall in Tampa FL demanding an end to ICE raids. Protesters had a Stop ICE Raids banner and at least one Mexican flag. At at least one point in the protest “Free Palestine” was chanted. Many connect growing intifada in the US to the resistance in Palestine to another arm of the same Empire. It takes a Rebellion to overthrow an Empire!
This protest was during City Hall business hours. The Tampa Police Department has signed a 287 (g) agreement with ICE. The mix of FL cops and ICE has been especially vicious due to the sewer of racist hate pouring from the mouth and pen of FL governor and failed Presidential candidate Ron Desantis. Looks like those ICE raids and checkpoints on FL highways may not be such a good idea for the cops anymore, especially near any city.
