   This is a kidnapping.

   The word "detained" is inadequate to describe what is going on around the country these days.

     @dangillmor Unmarked, no uniforms, this is absolutely a kidnapping and she had a right to kick them in the family jewels and run. Because so many Americans are armed, they would've had a right to open fire on them because her life was in danger.

     @dangillmor My heart hurts to see my country's government being patterned after the Nazi regime of 1930s Germany, and being weaponized against the people here.

     How do we stop this?!?

     There's really no practical difference between "plainclothes ICE" and "random thugs". If they aren't in uniforms, and don't show badges with numbers and photo ID, we have no way to tell - and no reason to believe - that they aren't just random muggers or kidnappers. Anyone can *claim* to be ICE.
