People were honking, waving, laughing, giving us thumbs up as always, and yes ICE got to hear all this. They always lock the place down and cower in their hole as if we're a threat-- anything to play victim. But the biggest "disruption" was one guy who was so excited he got out of his car-- as the light turned green!-- and filmed us for a few seconds with a huge grin. The people behind him didn't seem angry, though.
Even MAGA-looking trucks with a suspicious amount of US flag imagery...

Protest Thread #122: Just wet at ICE, not really wild
Well, we managed to have a great noisy protest outside the concentration camp again. One fool rolled coal on us and we got rained on, but this time nobody harassed us. Although several people had transportation problems, the six of us who were able to come still made a lot of noise! As always, the diverse neighborhood around that place responded with great enthusiasm to our silly-but-very-serious protest.
Paul Cantrell repeated this.
