I think that's on purpose. When people recognize ICE is just as likely to murder them as arrest them, then they'll start fighting back.

Once people start fighting back, the administration can use that as justification to declare things like insurgencies and national emergencies.

Also, their propaganda works a lot better on morons when they can show their noble and loyal ~~gestapo~~ ~~pedophile protectors~~ police being attacked by ~~people defending themselves against tyrants~~ evil bad people.
