      a lot better

      Not “a lot” just enough so that useful fools can normalize the bad.

      The exact same circumstances that triggered the current LA protests, to use a dated phrase, of ICE putting kids in cages would still been occuring. Sure ICE would probably still be operating primarily in secret as opposed to the current smash and grab and the national guard probably wouldn’t have been called in (debatable if that’s just because there wouldnt have been the same level of resistance.)

      I understand the legal, political and messaging differences there, but I’m not seeing any material differences between the two scenarios.
