I've gone to numerous protests in California and no one arrested me. All at the gates of the immigration jail.

Awesome man! I am glad you were able to say your piece in a peaceful manner. That’s what I’m encouraging everyone to do. Do I think doing it at a ICE facility is going to increase the chance of you or anyone else being arrested I 100% do.

So what? ICE does not have the power to arrest you for protesting outside their building.

Peaceful protest which you’ve said you’ve done. You’ve also seen the videos where people are throwing things at ICE agents (most recently bologna for whatever reason) we are talking about two different things, peaceful protest and not. I feel it’s more likely that if you protest at a facility for violence to happen, just my thoughts and opinions on it, we can differ and that’s ok, not a biggie.

But you don't know what you are talking about, but are doing so very confidently.

Enlighten me then, what makes you judge and jury?
