"The protests are calling for an abolition of ICE and an end to what they call human rights abuses by the criminal justice system, alongside other reforms."

That would imply that there would be zero border enforcement of any kind.

While many here may support that, I don't think that is at all reasonable. Our country needs to have some screening process of who and what contraband is coming across both borders wouldn't you agree? We are incapable of absorbing the entire population of Mexico and Central America

Not one of our Democratic politicians is calling for ICE to be eliminated
