Not since 1783. So why would we want one now?

The legal establishment of the United States as a sovereign nation was finalized with the signing of the Treaty of Paris on September 3, 1783. This agreement officially ended the Revolutionary War. In the treaty, Great Britain formally acknowledged that the United States was a group of free and independent states. The British government gave up all its claims to the territory and the government of the new nation.

Give a little whistle

 The idea behind the whistle is simple: If you see ICE agents, you let out three short tweets to alert people in the area of the presence of federal agents. If you see ICE agents detaining someone, you let out three prolonged tweets to call witnesses to the scene. Witnesses are legally permitted to document arrests; this evidence can be used later in court or to find detainees after arrest.

People on the street protesting ICE actions by blowing flat, colorful, 3D-printed whistles.
