    But ICE comes for you because you are on a list, not because you trustingly followed someone to their car or something. They hunt you; they don’t lure you. It doesn’t matter if you trust or distrust them; the result will be the same.

      1. You don’t have to be on a list for ICE to predate. Most of the children weren’t on lists. Most of the dead parents weren’t, either.
      2. I don’t understand what your trust remarks have to do with predators, but the important thing is don’t trust LEO’s

        Ok please elaborate, how avoiding the cops prevents you from ending up on a list of fucktards like ICE.

          ICE is going around harassing random brown people. They’re not just going after people on lists.

          Hell, hundreds of US citizens have ended up in ICE’s dungeons.

            Fair point. That would not have been what I associate with “avoid”, though. That sounds more like “actively evade” / “run away”. If someone tells me to “avoid the cops” I think of it as “do not approach them”.
