the truth is, recording ICE with a cell phone camera is a capital offense. Helping a woman who ICE pushed to the ground is a capital offense. ICE will take away a person's gun, have a bunch of goons punch and kick him while he's on the ground, and then shoot him dead in that order.

No consequences. Cruelty is the point. They'll make up easily disproven lies to defend the indefensible.
