This is how the Conservative Propaganda Machine finds.people with poor Critical Thinking Skills and separates them from the herd, and starts working on them. I'm this case, they are prepared to accept whatever ICE does to us, because they've been told it will be far worse if ICE goes away.

Was there NOTHING at the border before ICE? Was nobody being stopped at the border before?

Of course not, Border Patrol has been a thing forever, long before ICE was around. If ICE goes away, then we simply rely on the Border patrol, like we've always done.

You could argue that they could do a better job, but sending armed invaders to attack our cities is not the better job they should be doing.
