Protesters again took to the streets in San Diego Thursday, calling for justice over the death of Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old Minnesota poet and mother who was killed by an ICE officer.<\/p>\n

There were daytime and evening protests, both of which followed Wednesday\u2019s late march <\/a>through Little Italy, hours after the shooting death of Renee Nicole Good, 37.<\/p>\n

Participants in the Thursday midday protest, organized by a coalition of labor groups, marched, chanted and carried signs outside Edward J. Schwartz Federal Building.<\/p>\n

In a statement released prior to the event, Service Employees International Union Local 221 stated that local critics of the federal agency are \u201ccalling for an end to violent, out-of-control immigration operations with ICE raiding communities and tearing families apart.\u201d<\/p>\n

The federal building in the 200 block of West Broadway was chosen because ICE has a detention center there.<\/p>\n

By late afternoon, the protesters had dispersed, with police reporting no significant problems or arrests.<\/p>\n

Police were present for the Thursday evening gathering as well, also at the federal building, where the crowd reacted when they spotted a white van leaving the federal building. Police maintained watch over the the protesters, who moved back peaceably to Front Street after the van went by.<\/p>\n

Signs held aloft by demonstrators included \u201cFrom San Diego to Minneapolis: Stop ICE Terror,\u201d \u201cIce-cold killers\u201d and \u201cICE are the domestic terrorists.\u201d<\/p>\n

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem\u00a0on Wednesday called Good\u2019s actions prior to her shooting \u201can act of domestic terrorism.\u201d President Donald Trump said on social media that \u201cthe woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting, who then violently, willfully, and viciously ran over the ICE Officer, who seems to have shot her in self defense.\u201d<\/p>\n

Former Vice President Kamala Harris, though, joined a host of Democratic leaders who criticized the government, saying the footage of Good\u2019s death \u201cmakes it clear that the Trump administration\u2019s explanation of this shooting is pure gaslighting.\u201d<\/p>\n
