Comparing anyone to the National Socialist Sturmabteilung is quite appalling. It’s a bit like calling someone a Nazi, just shows lack of education.
What will you do when you need an even stronger word if you already used the worst analogy you can think of.

The rank and file were still around, but many shifted to the Schutzstaffel, or SS, who moved into the power vacuum. The SS were the people in charge of the holocaust and other assorted atrocities.
The worst tactics of ICE, snatching people off the street and arresting people who film them, are not that far removed from the stormtroopers, though the stormtroopers were more into beatings and personal violence.

So ICE is gassing disabled children, and working homosexuals and the politically unreliable
I think you have the brownshirts, AKA stormtroopers or SA or Sturmabteilung, confused with the SS. The brownshirts engaged in intimidation, street violence, and arrests. Then on the "night of the long knives," July 1 1934 in the midst of a Nazi power struggle, the leadership of the brownshirts were executed. The rank and file were still around, but many shifted to the Schutzstaffel, or SS, who moved into the power vacuum. The SS were the people in charge of the holocaust and other assorted atrocities.
