This is not okay, and it is not a product of the legal system. When the system fails the people, it's up to the people to deny the system its power. Good on those neighbors getting involved and pushing back.
If you are ICE, fuck you. You should be ashamed. Your parents should be ashamed
If you are someone who stands by while these cosplayers are kidnapping and torturing people, then you deserve your place in hell
Once upon a time, in a distant land, a person arrived near a police vehicle while a crowd surrounding the vehicle was argumentative and loud. They dropped a few caltrops and nudged them under the wheels with their toe.
Once upon a time, in a distant land, a guy with a cordless drill disabled some police vehicles in a speed-run. Sadly they had no RC car to mount it on (note: some cleanliness, testing and engineering skills required) or they could have called it a "rig" and proclaimed "drill, baby, drill".
So kidnapping and the police are in on it?
In some cities they are working with ICE, yes.
You can search for which cities formally have an agreement with ICE here:

Can't wait till people start shooting ICE and the police on sight because they were pushed too far.
I'm genuinely surprised it hasn't happened yet. They're probably staying out of the most sketchy neighborhoods.
Fuck 'em up!
They won. They got exactly what they wanted, plus anybody who tried to intervene got arrested along the way. From the headline I thought it would be more like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZcoXdZeabA . There's still massive problems here and our version of ICE have got away with a lot but thankfully nowhere near this stage
It's better that we're all arrested rather than do nothing but watch.
How does America have so many cowards willing to do this job?
I've known plenty of them. They sign up specifically because they want to do this job. Rember the dumb bullies from school? Imagine what happens when they grow up.
People should start learning how to make thermite and how to immobilize vehicles.
Citizen sabotage was taught by the CIA as an effective way for insurgents in a country we wanted to topple to hurt their defensive and warmaking power.
The best tactic in this regard; incompetence.
Just get a job where you help them. But be bad at it.
Lose papers. Email things backwards. Leave messes. Pour the wrong chemicals in the wrong thing. Send messages on Monday instead of Friday. Spoil supplies by making them wet and letting them rot.
add journalists and random civilians to military operation group chats
So um... what're you gonna do with the thermite?
No seriously, I used to do aluminothermic welding, trust me when I say it's an extremely frustrating substance to use. And on top of that, it is incredibly conspicuous. Unless you both know what you're doing and what you're doing can only be done by introducing a huge thermal mass (for example, screwing up a precision bearing surface on a piece of equipment. Note that you can't really cut through material with thermite without using a burnout mold), there are way better ways to accomplish the task. It's just not a great choice, and everything a theoretical citizen resistance would feasibly be doing could be done better, faster and safer (for you) with either some gasoline or bolt cutters...
There needs to be a citizens APB tool so when this happens people can swarm the scene and block them from leaving or backup entering.
