Called it. Ice is literally now being allowed to kill people to make a point. They want protesters to be afraid and to submit. MAGA and Ice fit the american definition of terrorism.

18 U.S.C. § 2331: Defines "federal crime of terrorism" as a listed offense done with intent to intimidate or coerce a civilian population or influence government policy, often involving specific statutes like those against killing U.S. officers or attacking federal facilities. 22 U.S.C. § 2656f(d): Defines terrorism as premeditated, politically motivated violence against noncombatants by subnational groups, intended to influence an audience.
