It is disturbing to see that some people are representing themselves as “official” and sometimes uniformed authorities, including ICE, to enforce what they perceive as lawful oppression (“‘It’s hard to sleep’: Possible ICE visits at schools, churches terrify local immigrants,” Feb. 1).
This harkens back to the paramilitary Blackshirts in Italy and the Ku Klux Klan in this country. I fear that it is intensifying the already deep divisions between friends and neighbors which makes it problematic to have a unified and informed resistance to the overall lawbreaking that is going at the core of our political system.
Would such a posse be willing to try to arrest members of Congress who are complicit in the damage being done to our democratic system? I doubt it.
