Also, the way ICE is operating make the US less safe, especially for businesses and wealthy f'ers Any criminal gang could swarm a high end store or restaurant claiming to look for undocumented employees to rob it and customers; any psycho could easily get a cosplay type uniform and target people - including MAGA - to hold for ransom, torture, rape or kill.
Just look at what happens in countries run by gangs and "private security" - like Haiti or Columbia.
Yes, what ICE doing is definitely unconstitutional and the first step to fascism. But MAGA cares only for their own skin, and pointing out how ICE is increasing the danger to the public the way they operate can blunt the support for their attack on democracy.
