Wild hypocrisy in action.
But here’s what they’re missing, the real overarching issue: This is straight-up sedition territory. They’re not just protesting policy; they’re actively interfering with lawful federal operations—Operation Metro Surge—to apprehend and deport criminal aliens, including violent offenders. By building barricades, tracking agents, and obstructing access, they’re nullifying federal law in a declared sanctuary zone, coordinated with local officials who won’t intervene. That’s rebellion against the United States government, not civil disobedience.
And the irony bites harder: They scream “no one is illegal” while treating out-of-state plates (often federal rentals) as guilty until proven innocent—mirroring the profiling they hate, but without any legal backing. Meanwhile, ICE has court orders and statutes; these folks have recliners and Signal chats.
Take a look at the actual scenes—barricades of junk blocking Cedar Avenue, protesters with signs yelling at cars.

It’s not about protecting neighbors; it’s about declaring a mini-republic where federal law doesn’t apply. That’s the line they’re crossing, and why police just watch instead of arresting—local politics shielding what should be federal crimes. What’s your take on where this heads next?
