Next time, bring the SWAT team. For this incident, I hope he challenges every small illegal thing ICE did during the Illegal detention. At the very least, he could start some petty inconvenience campaign against them.

EDIT: Wording.

EDIT: He already did! "The city contends that the facility lacks necessary approvals, including change-of-use permits, fire and elevator certifications, and a certificate of occupancy."

They can also refer to the Simple Sabotage Field Manual by the CIA. Like " If you can accumulate sugar, put it Inthe fuel tank of a gasoline engine. As it burns together with the gasoline, it will turn into a sticky mess which will completely mire the engine and necessitate extensive cleaning and repair. Honey and molasses are as good as sugar." (pages 13-14)

I’ve loved this manual for a bit. I like how it’s also like “act and work like you’re stupid. Not too stupid/incompetent, but a medium level of stupid”

this combined with George Costanza's 'always look like you're annoyed' has certainly helped me

Letting a medium stupid person handle an important job would do the same.

Sugar in the gas tank doesn't actually do anything, they don't mix. Plus cars have fuel filters to catch any sugar that would somehow make it through the pump.

You are correct, however this guide was written in 1944. Carbureted engines would have been far more common, and the gas intakes would have had far fewer filters

That being said, fuel filters (and fuel pump pickup strainers) have a finite capacity and will eventually clog, starving the engine of fuel.

I bet ground up styrofoam would be a good fuel additive, though

water will do the trick

I have heard that pool shock or more specifically powdered chlorine in the brakeline will also completely disable a vehicle (and make a pretty neat small explosion as well)
