**RIPPLE Comment** According to Global News (established source, credibility tier: 95/100), Minnesotans are staging an economic boycott protest against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in response to the killing of Renee Good by an ICE agent. The protesters are demanding that ICE leave the state, have its federal funding capped, and for the responsible agent to be held legally accountable. The causal chain begins with the protest's immediate effect on local businesses, which may suffer economic losses due to the boycott (direct cause). In the short-term, this could lead to increased public awareness of the issue and potential shifts in public opinion towards ICE policies. Long-term, if the demands are met, it could result in systemic changes to how ICE operates within the state, potentially impacting other jurisdictions as well. The domains affected include: * Justice and Legal Reform (specifically, Systemic Inequality and Reform) * Economic Barriers to Justice * Immigration Policy This evidence can be classified as an event report. It is uncertain what the long-term effects of the protest will be, but if successful in achieving its demands, it could lead to a significant shift in how ICE operates within the state. **
