I can't believe no one saw this coming! I'm so shocked! Wow!
I want to say something like that I hope there's a limit of how many cases of ICE impersonation for rape/kidnapping/human trafficking before someone forces ICE to stop operating in secret so that men can't impersonate them so easily, but there's no one with the power to stop it right now who would.

Anyone who uses lethal or seriously-injuring force to defend themselves against an imposter who turns out not to be an imposter, is likely going to face some pretty severe consequences. Even if they genuinely believed the person they were defending against wasn't any kind of law officer. So your choice is either comply, or defend yourself and hope the person you chase away or injure or kill really was a fake.
This is terrible for everyone but especially for women and children. It's not being talked about nearly enough because of OMG IMMIGRANTS or something. If criminal immigrants are such a problem, can someone tell me why ICE isn't in the known gang neighborhoods clearing them out? Why aren't the National Guard, the tanks, the fed and local police presence, all there? Why aren't the raids happening more frequently all over Middle America with its fields and farms and meat processing plants? Why aren't the owners of companies that employ illegal immigrants being arrested and facing charges?
Gosh, it's almost like this has nothing to do with removing criminals or deterring illegal immigration, and it's more about crippling the economies of certain states. Also makes me wonder if the fed made arrangements with gangs to not disrupt their territories and leadership, in return for gangs not interfering with ICE raids.
