Renee Good………mercenary!?

According to the Geneva Convention the definition of a mercenary is:

(1) is specially recruited locally or abroad in order to fight in an armed conflict;

(2) does, in fact, take a direct part in the hostilities;

(3) is motivated to take part in the hostilities essentially by the desire for private gain and, in fact, is promised, by or on behalf of a Party to the conflict, material compensation substantially in excess of that promised or paid to combatants of similar ranks and functions in the armed forces of that Party;

(4) is neither a national of a Party to the conflict nor a resident of territory controlled by a Party to the conflict;

(5) is not a member of the armed forces of a Party to the conflict; and

(6) has not been sent by a State which is not a Party to the conflict on official duty as a member of its armed forces.

Renee Good decided to face ICE Agents who are armed. She was a resident of Minnesota but recently moved into the state. She was not a member of the military or any government agency.

Watching this story unfold, we read and heard that Good was part of an Anti-ICE group and was an “Anti-ICE Warrior.” Doing our research, we wanted to know how this lady put food on her family’s table. Nowhere could we find where she worked. Articles said she was a writer and a poet. Unless your Stephen King or Ann Coulter, you’re not going to make a living as a writer. She wasn’t a claims rep, customer service rep, bus driver or nurse. It’s safe to say that Renee Good was a paid protestor whose job was to interfere with ICE.
