I won’t comment on the minneapolis incident - I’ve done enough of that.
The reality is that there are people whom the court has ordered out but are still here. There needs to be a federal agency authorized to deal with that. Otherwise, why have courts and laws?
Right now that authority is ICE or Border Patrol. Whether you agree or disagree with their tactics, they exist for the purpose i mentioned above.
Abolish ICE? Fine. Then you either need to delegate the authority to deal with the above issue to someone else, or ignore the issue.
Personally, I don’t want to ignore the issue, and I think I am in the majority on this. Personally, I think vilifying ICE as a whole is an un winnable strategy at the moment, and the best way to protect the rights of citizens and non citizens alike would be for local jurisdictions to work with them to ensure they operate in lawful ways (such as sharing of information, coordination strategies, etc). Otherwise, they do what the F they want violently and right now there is not much people can do stop it without making things worse.
