Anti-I.C.E. Banner Dropped Tacoma, WA

From Seattle IMC:

"A banner against the ICE Detention facilities was dropped from a building in downtown Tacoma.



On Friday, July 17, a giant banner against the ICE detention centers was dropped off of an emblematic dilapidated building in downtown Tacoma. The banner faced two sides of the giant Wells Fargo building, for all the little Eichmanns inside to see.

It read:
"DESTROY THE PRISON SYSTEM
DESTROY ICE DETENTION CENTERS
FUCK BORDERS
(A)"

Wells Fargo is a major investor in the Geo Group, which runs prisons for ICE, including the notorious Northwest Detention Facility located less than a mile within the port of Tacoma.

The building here was just on the front page of the local weekly with a flaming headline of it being in 'DANGER' of imminent collapse.

No police activity could be seen there early in the day, but the entire banner was gone by evening."
