I partially agree, although it could be argued that if the persons who later broke into the Capitol hadn't had their "logistics and travel" to the rally paid, they wouldn't have been in DC at all.

Very true. But I don't think that equals causation.

You cannot break in if you cannot get there. ;)

True -- and you can't get a speeding ticket if you don't drive,
but driving does not equal speeding. :-)

You have to have your own responsibility in mind and should not be confronting, blocking, or following around federal agents, no matter
who the President is. If you want to protest, do it at the state
capitol, local courthouse, federal building, or some other public
space... *NOT* the area where ICE is located.

Otherwise, you are getting close to "suicide by cop" territory.

Yep! We live in a representative (or constitutional) republic -- we
have recourse through our elected officials.

I am really confused... the left has claimed that ICE are nothing but a bunch of Jan 6'ers that Trump pardoned and gave guns, so why would
those on the left want to be anywhere *near* them? I sure don't want
to be anywhere near them if I can help it.

They would probably be better off finding a charity that helps
immigrants with their legal processes and volunteering their time, or mobilizing to find some other way to assist without confronting federal agents.

Exactly! I'm all for LEGAL immigration!

The perception (that I sometimes share!) is that they don't always listen really well, especially lately. There are some on both sides who seem to
think they are supposed to be doing what their party says vs. what is good
for their constituents -- something that may vary wildly depending on what
part of the country they are from.
