On Saturday, thousands of activists participated in a church training in Roseville, Minnesota, where they were encouraged to annoy agents like “mosquitoes.” The group running the training session, Monarca, has scheduled six trainings since the shooting, all of which are “at capacity,” according to their website.
One of the local Minneapolis ICE watch groups, known as “defendthe612,” held a training the day after the shooting “for anyone who wants to learn how to plug in and for those who have already been in the streets and can share lessons from that experience,” according to an Instagram post.

A Minnesota woman named Kristin Peter said Good was on the same ICE Watch team as one of her coworkers, the New York Post reported. And despite Good’s fatal interaction with law enforcement, the activists don’t seem deterred. Peter said she herself was planning to attend of the group’s meetings Thursday night — and Minneapolis ICE Watch member Flannery Clark told CNN she’s not stopping either.
“We have to do what we can to protect our immigrant neighbors,” she said, adding that it’s “too dangerous” to block ICE. “We document and make sure that the families of people who are kidnapped can find them.”

Another post from the group that day asked “for people to SHOW UP in numbers” to an area where 100-200 agents were apparently spotted.
“Show up, record, inform them of their right to remain silent and not sign anything! Please proceed with caution and do not interfere directly with any investigation unless you are willing to face potential legal consequences,” the group wrote.
The organization has also been asking agitators to harass hotels in the hopes to get them to kick ICE agents out.
And some have already acted on the instructions from “ICE Watch” organizations.
Video captured by Fox News Friday showed Border Patrol agents warning two drivers against following them and impeding with their arrests in Minneapolis.

“I think I’m making exactly the right decision,” the woman responded.
Good apparently joined one of the activist groups after learning about it through her 6-year-old son’s leftist charter school, which prides itself on “involving kids in political and social activism,” according to the New York Post.

Good was killed after she appeared to be blocking a road ICE agents were trying to pass through. The officers could be heard in a video ordering her to get out of her vehicle, before she put it in reverse and then in drive.
One video appeared to show the ICE officer take a hit as he was standing in front of the car before shots were fired.
“I’m not happy that this woman was there at a protest violating the law by interfering with a law enforcement action. I think that we can all recognize that the best way to turn down the temperature is to tell people to take their concerns about immigration policy to the ballot box,” Vice President JD Vance said during a press conference Thursday.
“Stop assaulting and stop inciting violence against our law enforcement officers. That’s the best way to take down the temperature,” he said.
