i can't make sense of this comment in this context, which is to say a Native man sharing the story of his arrest, and your statement which suggests he deserved it?

the leopards comments are moving from unhelpful to actively harmful, from my point of view. you're participating in the further dehumanization of one of the most historically oppressed peoples in this country.

Pretty sure that comment is about ICE and how they are doing all the things MAGA supporters said they wouldn't do. And likely still believe they aren't.

i understand that. it just seemed a little tone deaf as a response to the video.

People have been saying to carry all your identifying papers around with you in case you get stopped.

Others have correctly pointed out that ICE does not care about what papers you have with you and they will arrest you regardless.

There’s your context.
