‘Operation Dildo Blitz’ Anti-ICE Protest in Minneapolis Ends With 50+ Arrest

One demonstrator said they attended the phallic protest, at which people pelted federal agents’ vehicles with sex toys, “because ICE likes to bend over for Daddy Trump.”

Demonstrators hurled insults and sex toys at federal agents outside a Minneapolis government building on Saturday to protest the Trump administration’s deadly Immigration and Customs Enforcement crackdown on undocumented immigrants and their supporters, with state and local police arresting more than 50 people.

Dubbed “Operation Dildo Blitz,” the protest outside the Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building saw demonstrators place sex toys in a chain link fence while others handed out rubber phalluses to protesters who threw them at passing federal and local law enforcement vehicles.

I think it’s funny as hell, a delicious bit of nonviolent political trouble. Good trouble. Being hit with one of these dildos would be like being hit with a sub sandwich, and we all know how that prosecution went.

And will definitely get interest from the news agencies. And many of the toys were purchased from a local shop that has lost business during the ICE raids so it supports local and puts money into the local economy.

That was my 1st reaction after giggling a little, but then my mind thought of how those enforcers would use them against people held in their concentration camps.

…but it’s also effective. It makes ICE look like idiots if they press charges, it’s getting press, and it engages MAGAts at their own level. I can’t see myself doing something like that, but more power to those who do.
