If they wanted "illegal" immigrants to leave all they had to do was punish the businesses exploiting them.

More importantly: being an immigrant is not a moral failing, legal or not (cause let's be real the reason people leave their sunny, resource-filled lands is because of Western imperialism, lol, the West morally belongs to the world simply because the West stole from it, but you can ignore this part if you're not ready to have this chat), and certainly not a reason to murder anyone. Violence that's not trying to stop violence is simply wrong, and can easily make you someone deserving of Hell. But do you guys have that as a paradigm or just "legal" and "illegal"?

Its super simple. Is it ICE's job to kill people? No? Cool, hold them accountable or the public will and all youve done is erode public faith in your institution.

I'm pretty sure it is their job to harass and kill people. That is why they are currently roaming the streets of US cities.

It's the US military but this time for the people living in the US.

Such humans terrify me far more than immigrants ever did. Immigrants actually want to be part of society.

"People", more like bots or worse bootlickers

If the government does it its not murder they right the rules. And its not kidnapping when the government its called detaining when they do it.

That assumes they're following the legal framework. ICE is well outside of it now.
