      Just gonna grab everyone and figure it out later. How many days until an innocent citizen gets caught (or targeted) in a blaze of gunfire and loses their life? Will these ICE agents face any scrutiny? Or is ICE just another word for the SS?

      But I guess we are all too busy on TikTok to even notice.
