This guy fucking rocks. The way he scolds them like naughty children is so good.

You have to talk to them for what they are.

Isn't that invasion of a foreign country?

Consulates aren't embassies, but it's still very diplomatically sketchy.

A consulate doesn't have the same protections a embassy have, but I think that ICE doesn't have any authority to enter.

I don't think it's foreign soil but they're definitely not supposed to enter according to this site https://legalclarity.org/what-is-consular-jurisdiction-and-how-does-it-work/

Stay the line.
Not just this guy, or the mother in Minneapolis. Or the father in San Diego. Or the grandmother who can hardly stand in Florida.
Hold it everywhere.
Do not go quietly into the light of their day. For that light is not just. It is blinding, overwhelming, and cruel.
It will feel like the end. And with the news today, it truly may be the end... But we will hold the line all the same. For without the line, evil people who do evil things. The helpers will be forgotten. And those who wish to use fear and sorrow as a tool shall rise up.
Don't let them win. Stand tall, even if they tell you that you are small. We all have a voice.

Holding up a pencil. Universal symbol of "I don't think so, stop right there."
