US citizens and non citizens alike are being randomly kidnapped off the street by masked thugs and scanned with facial recognition. This is what a dystopia looks like. In the Supreme Court case of Bad Elk v. United States, the court made it clear that it was lawful to use force to resist an illegal arrest. Putting on a uniform doesn't give you the right to randomly kidnap people off the street based solely on the color of their skin. It probably wouldn't be a good idea, but it would be lawful to resist an illegal arrest by ICE agents with force. So when does a detention cross the line into an "arrest"? When it is prolonged, when a reasonable person would not feel free to go, when handcuffs or restraints are used. So when they snag a citizen with no evidence of a crime, put them in cuffs, and drive them to a different location before scanning their face, that feels like an arrest regardless of whether the citizen is released after the scan or not. If you are going by the actual law, and we know how much ICE and their supporters love talking about the law as if it is sacred, then it would be entirely legal to resist these illegal kidnappings with force. Unfortunately, the reality is the ruling class and their thugs don't actually respect the law, so resisting with force will probably end quite badly for the kidnapping victim. Best case they win at trial after a long and expensive ordeal. That would be a miracle because almost noone wins at trial in the Federal court system, which is just proof the entire Federal "justice" system is a Kafkaesque joke rigged against defendants in favor of the state. Now the final question is, if your rulers don't respect their own laws, why should you?
