Hakes said that if an officer from the Department of Homeland Security or a person who works at ICE tried to come buy food from the cart, protesters would harass her employees as well as the customers. She says that protestors threatened to burn down her cart.

"To them they [ICE and DHS employees] are the enemy, and since we serve them we are the enemy," Hakes says.

Classic corporate propaganda done for the purposes of belittling protesters and duping the average citizen into believing that these people are merely spoiled hypocrites whose agenda has no merit.

As if they should be wearing hand-fabricated clothing, communicating by smoke signal or conch shells, after having arrived at their protest destination by ox- drawn cart.

How about they not harass local business people trying to make a living?

Sure you did. You always ignore it when you find out your side's tactics are just as bad as the other side's.

Try all you like, you can't make what you want to be true, true. You're like Trump in that regard, aren't you.
