A lynching isn’t just any extrajudicial killing, and officers are allowed to use lawful use of force in certain situations which can sadly result in the death of an individual. That being said, the standards for lawful use of force are strict and are indeed sometimes violated by agents, resulting in tragic and needless deaths. Furthermore, ICE is not a mob but a branch of federal law enforcement under the Department of Homeland Security.

This is a false equivalency. No race will ever come close to the amount of discrimination black have and do face on a daily basis.

The KKK did lynchings, assaults, etc ICE does arrests for people here illegally. ICE has done wrong things fs but they’re not built off racism like the klan was

Some of those are definitely on ICE. However, some are also resulting from the lawful use of force when their life or the lives of others are under threat by the individual’s actions

exactly like yes ICE is awful and 100% corrupt, murders citizens, and detains literal children, but the kkk was a completely different story and they’re not really comparable because of their motives and the way they did shit. but both are beyond awful

you clearly don't know the meaning of the words "lynching" or "assault". ICE has done both; including against US citizens, lawful permanent residents, visa holders, etc.

A lynching is caused by a mob outside a court of law or the justice system. Since ICE is a direct part of the justice system that automatically rules that out. An assault is a physical attack, and physical altercations are common in arrests both in ICE and regular police duties, either by the fault of the individual or the officer. While ICE has certainly unlawfully killed innocents, by and large they’re doing what needs to be done

a lynching is an *extrajudicial* killing; that means outside the authority of and without the involvement of a court to permit a killing. ICE being law enforcement does NOT preclude them from extrajudicial killing. if an LEO executes a rapist because he hates rapists, that is an extrajudicial killing, because the courts did not permit that killing. ICE has done this repeatedly

assault has a broad range of definitions but you're more so describing battery; the latter generally being an extension of the former (assault is often treated as the intent to commit battery). assault, in most jurisdictions, may or may not include a physical attack; but almost always includes threats, intimidation, and the intentional inflicting of terror or fear. battery is generally the physical attack itself. ICE has done both

by in large, ICE is ineffective, dangerous, and unnecessary. the only reason they exist is because certain law enforcement functions were cynically split off from other agencies to keep it from being shut down. now they're a bloated agency wasting millions of tax payer dollars to hire virtually untrained thugs to slaughter people – citizen or not

and i should clarify: ICE has not executed any rapists (they don't do intentional friendly fire) but they have extrajudicially murdered several innocent people, including citizens. the way those sentences lead into each other might lead one to wrongly assume ICE or LEOs are killing rapists, which is a silly idea

No, there has not been a single case where when they murdered someone that it was a lawful use of force

Yep! ICE is much worse! Since they are apart of the government and getting paid by our own government to be domestic terrorists! Hope this helps!

This upset them but you’re right. A pregnant woman was beaten and her unborn child was cut out of her and crushed before she was riddled with bullets and burned to death. This is just one lynching, never mind cases like that of Emmett Till. There is no comparison.
