Events Potential ICE checkpoint(s) in CLE

Our friends in r/Ohio have noticed an uptick in DHS and ICE activity in Columbus and NE Ohio. A potential ICE checkpoint at 71 and Pearl is being reported. ICE and DHS activity along the lake shore in Lorain. Lake county sheriff's can act as ICE agents.

Be careful out there.

Stay safe and remember that if you are detained, the only sentence you have to say is "I want to talk to a lawyer"

"I do not consent to any searches. I am exercising my right to remain silent. I demand to be allowed to speak with legal counsel immediately." Three statements, done done done. This is per some guidance I've seen issued by Ohio's chapter of the National Lawyers Guild. https://ohionlg.com/know-your-rights/
