Dont you guys have the ENTIRE amendment against this shit? Wear a strap, conceal carry and if somebody tries to literally kidnap you, just protect yourself.
I imagine for most, outside of a larger organised effort, the calculus is fairly simple. ICE agents are likely "itching" for someone to reach for a piece, for an excuse to shoot an "illegal". And it's not like law enforcement's going to show up acting all reasonable to a scene with dead ICE agents too. Anyone shooting an ICE agent would get plastered all over FOX not as a defender of individual rights, but as a case in point for the propaganda machine.
Resisting is an almost certain death warrant. Not resisting you maintain 'hope' that reasonable minds will win out in the end / that you'll only be locked up for a short time.
You are right in your assessment, but unfortunately, if nobody starts with active defense, it will only get worse and more "accepted" by society. That is how indoctrination is done, in small steps, "checking the water" for whats accepted by the masses and whats not, slowly pushing more and more into the extremes.
