How exactly does "stand your ground" rights work when confronted with armed ICE agents with face masks and no uniforms or badges or warrants?
Would an armed immigrant (or US citizen) be correct to assume these guys are thugs kidnapping them and shoot first, ask questions later?
What does the NRA say about this situation?
Far from arresting the most dangerous criminal immigrants, it seems to me that ICE is going after those they know are law-abiding so they don't risk getting shot.
Just asking for a friend.

Of course DOJ would undoubtedly do their best to fry anyone who shot at one of their thugs so...

Pretty "funny" that we're in the government overreach that the NRA has always claimed as a reason to be armed, and yet they are 100% silent.
I guess they never actually intended that minorities or immigrants be armed.

(13,936 posts)An absolutely ridiculous premise. The intersection between stand your ground and ICE interdiction is both exceedingly tiny, and spurious. And (unless you're actually LOOKING to get people killed) - please don't suggest that anyone should act upon it.
