⁤ ​ ‍ ‌ To mitigate the ⁣risk ‌of ⁤violence during⁣ future⁢ ICE⁤ protests, it is crucial to ⁢adopt ‌a proactive approach that ‌emphasizes interaction,⁢ community engagement, and safety ⁤measures.⁢ Local law enforcement need to establish a ‍dialogue with community organizers​ ahead ⁢of protests, ensuring ‌that ⁣both the authorities and demonstrators understand⁤ the ‌boundaries of lawful protest‌ and community safety.​ Furthermore, community-based initiatives can foster a sense⁢ of ownership and⁢ responsibility⁢ among participants, encouraging non-violent expressions ⁤of​ dissent.

To track the effectiveness of these measures, a feedback mechanism should be developed, allowing participants and law enforcement to evaluate ⁢and ⁣adapt ​strategies ​in real-time. A suggested framework​ for managing ⁢future gatherings could include:
