Facebook incites violent war on ICE
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
On Thursday, Sept. 19, Abolish ICE Denver and the Denver Communists are organizing a protest outside the house of Johnny Choate, the warden of the immigrant detention facility in Aurora, Colorado.
Abolish ICE thugs in Colorado want to see the homes and families of immigration enforcement officials set aflame.
Denver communists want alien detention facility employees dead, swinging from nooses with broken necks.
Both groups are brazenly using Facebook to spread their inflammatory and violent messages. So, where is Silicon Valley -- whose top companies partner with the Southern Poverty Law Center smear machine to de-platform conservatives, pro-lifers and Donald Trump supporters -- to stop the open borders left's escalating hate?
On Thursday, Sept. 19, Abolish ICE Denver and the Denver Communists are organizing a protest outside the house of Johnny Choate, the warden of the immigrant detention facility in Aurora, Colorado. Choate works for GEO Group, which operates the center. Instead of laying blame at the feet of global profiteers who induce illegal immigrants to risk their families' lives to trespass our borders, anti-ICE agitators are targeting homeland security employees and contractors who simply enforce federal immigration and detention laws passed by Congress.
The Denver Communists group shared a poster on Facebook with Choate's face superimposed over a generic neighborhood map with private residential homes. "CONFRONT LA MIGRA WHERE THEY LIVE," the radicals urged members. The graphic describes Choate as "warden of Aurora's notorious ICE concentration camp." That's the same inflammatory and defamatory language popularized by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and used by antifa militant Willem Van Spronsen, who attempted to firebomb the Tacoma ICE facility, also run by GEO Group, in July.
The protest announcement also includes the phrase, "Chinga La Migra!" It's the slogan of Mijente, a Latino activist group leading the Abolish ICE movement. Translation: "[Expletive] the Border Patrol." Border Patrol."
A commenter edited a distorted image of Choate's face surrounded by flames, suggesting arson. His post was liked by three other fans/followers/members of the Denver Communists' Facebook Group.
Another commenter leveled his own explicit thread on the Facebook page targeting Choate and his family in his home:
"Reenact human rights abuses, get hanged by the neck until dead. Simple."
As I report in my book "Open Borders Inc.: Who's Funding America's Destruction?" this virulent hatred for ICE and the Border Patrol traces its ideological lineage back to the cop-bashing domestic terrorism of the 1970s that festered in academia and resulted in bloodshed across the country at the hands of the Black Liberation Army and the Weather Underground. Today's Abolish ICE extremists harbor the same seething "Pigs in a blanket, fry 'em like bacon" contempt for immigration enforcement as the "progressive" cop-haters of the 1970s and their George Soros-subsidized heirs in the Bush-era A.N.S.W.E.R. and amnesty coalitions, Code Pink, Occupy Wall Street and Black Lives Matter movement.
The underlying mission back then was the same as now: Destabilization, disruption and destruction of civil order.
David Booth, who lives in Choate's neighborhood, refuses to sit by while these bullies invade his community.
"I was shocked and surprised when I found out there was going to be an 'ICE protest' in my neighborhood," he told me Tuesday. Booth discovered that Abolish ICE Denver used Facebook to spread information on how they will be "going door to door in the neighborhood to let people know that a 'monster' lives among us."
Booth condemned the witch hunt headed his community's way: "This policy of intimidation that we see the left continue to use is not OK. ... I would like to see the neighborhood rise up and support this man and his family."
I reached out to Facebook for a response to these public safety concerns, but received no answer by my deadline.
For Coloradans, violent threats to law enforcement officials' neighborhoods are especially disturbing given the chilling 2013 assassination of the head of the Colorado Department of Corrections outside his home in Monument. Booth will stand publicly in defense of his community Thursday and says he has his neighbors' support. "I think most of us, if not all, believe this protest is inappropriate regardless of where we stand on the issue of immigration," said Booth. "Our neighbor is just doing his job, and has done nothing wrong, or illegal, in carrying out his duties."
Following Stand With ICE rallies in Aurora, Colorado, and Montgomery County, Maryland, that have drawn nearly 1,000 citizens over the past two weeks, Booth decided he could not sit on the sidelines. He is not alone, and we have only just begun. I will join Coloradans again on Saturday, Sept. 21, when another Abolish ICE group marches to the Aurora ICE facility where the American flag was torn down in July.
If not us, who? If not now, when?

I stand with ICE! It’s ridiculous that ICE is being attacked and even more so that they are targeting law enforcement personnel at their own homes. Here’s hoping for a huge defense of the home today and a large pro ICE and border patrol rally this weekend in Colorado.
These Communists are sooooo cute when they go all "STUPID"
for our amusement. They don't have a "Reality Show" yet ?
And here I thought "Facebook" was actually watching for "CRAP" like this (So "Facebook" told us anyway).
I will join Coloradans again on Saturday, Sept. 21, when another Abolish ICE group marches to the Aurora ICE facility where the American flag was torn down in July.

Way to go Michelle Malkin ⚠️👏👏🇺🇸🗽
...According to the Aurora Police Department, the three people arrested are males. Their charges include obstruction, disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.
The protest occurred in a suburban neighborhood where the warden of the ICE Processing Center in Aurora lives.
It was organized by Abolish ICE Denver. Denver Communists and Denver Action Network also participated in the demonstration.
APD says no one was injured in the protests.
Aurora police Chief Nick Metz called the protesters' actions "vile" and "disgusting."
Following the protest, the GEO Group -- which operates the Aurora facility -- issued the following statement condemning the protests:
“Tonight we breathe a sigh of relief that our employee’s family and his neighbors are safe and their properties remain intact. Unfortunately, the spectacle has set a new low in our politics and public discourse.
“We hope the community support and pushback from brave leaders opposing this dangerous idea will serve as a deterrent for any future protests targeting people in their family’s homes and neighborhoods. These misdirected attacks and intimidation of our employees must stop and we encourage our local leaders to stand against these hateful tactics and push for a return to civil discourse....
Anyone here have access to a local news report as to what went down and what it was like?
The only thing that "went down" (Oooo!) was a big nothing-berder and maybe a little covfefe. You don't hear anything because it barely made the local news in Denver. But keep drooling.
It seems that the article I quoted from was more detailed than what you mentioned. I think it should be frowned upon to take protests to people’s homes.
Then why'd you ask when you already know the story ?
You are like me from California. I was hoping that members here from Colorado would describe it. It’s good that three who took a protest to Someone’s own home were arrested.?
Here’s the latest: Early in the day, ICE supporters far outnumbered those opposed to the federal agency’s detention of immigrants. ICE supporters began to gather to the north of barricades at 10 am. By 11 a.m. about 100 people had gathered around a small stage to hear comments from conservative speakers, including Michelle Malkin.
As songs from Bruce Springsteen and Led Zeppelin played over loudspeakers, talk radio host and rally organizer Randy Corporon described how the event was a response to “radical leftists” pulling down a U.S. flag from the facility’s flagpole in July.
“We want to make sure that any time there is a message that the men and women of ICE and this facility are Nazis, and child abusers and torturers, that there is a substantial number of American citizens that know better and will say so,” Corporon told The Denver Post before the his on-stage comments.
American flags and red “Make America Great Again” hats were the most common accessory at the rally. David Phipps, 60, drove from Centennial to attend.
He said he was there “to support ICE and support the laws we have and support the people who follow the laws. Immigrants entering the country through established legal processes are “being left behind,” Phipps said. “Those are the good people who we like to welcome to the country,” he said.
It will be great to have a pro ICE, pro America rally in Colorado this weekend. So much better than the flag burning anti American ICE haters there recently.
