I've heard conflicting reports. Trying to piece together a likely scenario...
It sounds as though officials met with minor resistance when trying to herd illegals onto transport to return them to their countries of origin.
We don't know if they really were illegals or if some had legit greencards.
It seems that the officials over-reacted, using more force than necessary to accomplish their task. People witnessed it and sent out videos from their cellphones.
That incited public protests at the injustices. The protest started peacfully, but some police were heavyhanded and some demonstrators pushed back.
From there it escalated into a riot, but it was much smaller than a previos riot in LA which was easily quelled with less force by local authorities. In that former episode, the National Guard were not called or needed.
So I conclude that Trump's action was overly heavy handed.

This is no longer about illegal immigration. I believe much of the trouble has been instigated by paid anarchists. I have no issue with someone demonstrating in support of illegals. I don't like it....but I have no problem with peaceful assembly and speech. And maybe there are, or were, a group of people who had those intentions early on.
ICE officers are doing their job. A job that is lawful and exactly what I voted for. I am thankful the president is standing up to these thugs. Democrats are incredibly stupid for supporting the rioters and lying to the public.
This has turned into an insurrection. Pallets of bricks are dropped so rioters can assault officers trying to do their job. Who dropped them? These actions are organized and paid for but by whom? The Feds need to find out and go after them with a vengeance never seen before.
