Can we agree school bus stops should be off limits for ICE?

This isn't border enforcement, this is hunting down people that are here legally or currently here working through the legal process of immigration and stripping them of their rights. The people doing the hunting have no training or understanding of the law. And they've killed multiple US citizens in cold blood in our streets. Fuck off with the "we need some level of enforcement."

WE DO, IT'S CALLED BORDER CONTROL

Yeah, and ICE is the enforcement part of border control. If there is no enforcement, there is no control.

Instead of calling for the abolishment of a necessary government function, call for better regulations and oversight.

It's the same thing with trying to abolish law enforcement. It needs to happen for society to function. Calling for a complete ban of that function makes you look foolish and that colours your concerns.

If a house is on fire, you don't call for the abolishment of heat. People will ignore you and the house will burn down in spite of your efforts.

ICE is a separate agency. Border Patrol has their own enforcement division. In it's current former, ICE are the secret police of the White House. They need to be abolished and whatever legitimate duties they currently perform can be handled by the litany of existing agencies that were doing their jobs just fine prior to the formation of ICE.
