ICE is invading our cities. Illegals are hard to spot: The five-year-old boy who rides his bike to sell his mother’s sandwiches to ICE officers is an illegal, but so are the grocer and his wife from East Grinstead, West Sussex who are running a bodega. There is a sidewalk protest where people wear duck costumes, lives are lost, a cat is beheaded and a monument to the Unknown ICE Officer is erected. Dead bodies are tossed over a cliff. Cats eat their faces. A lot of things happened when ICE invaded the City of Appleton: Five-year old Cortez came home with the wallet of Rico Zooks who was the taco truck man killed by random machine gun fire. - The Jessup Colonel in charge of the military operation handcuffed himself to an aluminum lawn chair to avoid difficult questions from Mumps Murphy, the TV personality with the blue afro. - Margo, the Jessup Colonel’s autistic daughter, did drawings that are identical to the drawings done by Cortez’s father. - Cortez’s father hid from ICE in a cardboard box at the top of the stairs. - A dead body appeared overnight in the front yard of Widow Sinclair. - The police chief offered a cat and dared the demonstrators to eat it. - Mumps Murphy, the TV personality, found ‘civilizational breakup’ on 9th street. - ICE deported some cheerleaders, pinups and beauty queens to the Sudan - Angus Wilson stole a key from a dead man and hijacked a taco truck. - Alice Wilson pined for their store ‘The Wilson Family Larder’ back in East Grinstead, West Sussex. - Cortez’s father misspelled Sedoña for Sedona AZ and the Wilsons were turned back at the airport and not deported to Sudan. - Jessup Peake works as the keeper of the monument to the Unknown ICE Officer - Cesar, the cat, was beheaded. Tactical Frivolity “So it was a tactic to be beautiful or funny or silly in order to attract more people to participate in the demonstrations by making it, honestly, fun. You can achieve something I like to call the irresistible image. It expresses your political opinion. It expresses the point you are trying to make. It’s not just an abstract idea, but you’ve created an image through your street action that is so strange or surprising or playful or interesting that even your ideological opponents will reproduce the image.” L.
