It doesn't make it all better, but it illustrates that their intimidation strategies are failing badly, but only if the whole story is heard.

By your telling, a guy was badly victimized by ICE. In my telling, he gets his revenge, and humiliates them. Making people fear them is good propaganda, but may have the effect of scaring people into not engaging. Making people see their virtuosic incompetence energizes people to continue to resist.
