Thank you, Councilwoman.

So if I see a ICE or Border Patrol agent violating this ordinance, should I call 911 and request a police officer to the scene?

In the event the dispatcher is unwilling to send a police officer, or the officer is unwilling to intervene, what should I do then?

Councilwoman, thank you for your efforts.

When I, as a citizen of St. Paul, see an ICE or Border Patrol agent violating this ordinance, what steps should I take?

What This Cruel War Was Over by Chandra Manning: 9780307277329 | PenguinRandomHouse.com: Books Using letters, diaries, and regimental newspapers to take us inside the minds of Civil War soldiersβ€”black and white, Northern and Southernβ€”as they fought and marched across a divided country,...

I read this one on the topic, that was very good, seems to have a broader perspective, and is very similarly titled (maybe even enough that you were thinking of it?) -

Congratulations on the new book! It is small but I participated in the Indivisible protest at Lexington and West 7th on Saturday afternoon and waved a flag, alongside several hundred neighbors.

These articles suggest the most effective pain management solutions they found were

1) Lidocaine jelly (available over the counter, it looks like)
2) Prolonged immersion (1 hr+) in vegetable oil

Seems like unfortunately it may take ~48 hours to resolve and the only thing to be done in the meantime is pain management, sorry :(

(I don't think it's a chemical burn per se, but the capsaicin interacting with the nerves.)

The McCollum staffers have answered the last 3 times I have called! I guess she does, after all, have many fewer constituents than the Senators. I try to always thank the staffer for working the phones. (I am usually also thanking Rep. McCollum.)
