Target is Targeted by “Salty” Anti-ICE Protesters

Ellen DeGeneres is in the news for her Instagram post regarding anti-ICE protests in Minneapolis. And she is receiving backlash over the post, in which she said she was proud of the protesters who are being peaceful and feels for the ones who have been hurt by law enforcement. Meanwhile, other protesters are targeting Target as part of a reverse boycott, in which they buy salt — why? Because salt melts ice! — and then returning it to encourage the chain store to slow down sales and consequently step up morally regarding ICE arrests and staging on store premises. There is a lot of misinformation and commentary regarding ICE arresting convicted sex offenders who are in the country illegally. Are these arrests done with or without arrest warrants? Are ICE agents accidentally nabbing and detaining US citizens? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
