ICE isn't law enforcement, they do not enforce any law but instead are the modern day gestapo/SS.
Just because everyone is repeating it all over it still isn't an accurate analogy. The Gestapo operated secretly. They usually came at night. The thugs acting illegaly but with impunity were the SA, immediately after Hitler got in charge, 1933, and before national socialist legislation like the Nürnberger Rassengesetze and the Ermächtigungsgesetz were active.
You say that but the stories I heard from my grandparents was completely different. The Gestapo did many razzia's during the day. My great grandfather was taken this way for smuggling downed allied pilots back to England. He was tortured for 2 weeks, then sent to Birkenau. He lived in Zeeland The Netherlands and the Gestapo did raids on all the farms on a weekly basis. My family got tipped off by the first farm on the road as some farms were required to have a phone in case of an invasion by the allied and the Germans needed a phone nearby to report to HQ. But he got snitched by his neighbor. My grandfather from the other side of the family did sapper tasks in the resistance, blowing up rauleay tracks and communication lines. The Gestapo was actively hunting them (luckily without success) out in the open, executing random civilians as a warning. Both the Gestapo, SS and SD. Everyone knew who the Gestapo were, they always drove the same cars.
