There was no problem before ICE arrived

To: Sen. Ernst, Rep. Feenstra, Sen. Grassley

From: A verified voter in Ames, IA

January 16

How come I never saw armed goons walking down American residential streets seeing off flash bangs, spraying pepper spray and antagonizing people until ICE went into Minnesota? Isn't your #1 job to make sure Americans feels a base level of safety living here? Nothing like this was ever a problem before ICE came in. Not a single person detained in Midway Blitz was a murderer or a rapist. They were not the worst of the worst. How do you justify terrorizing American streets and children to grab up random people? Over 70% of the immigrants detained haven't even had a parking ticket! I heard there's even a US Citizens wing in the Minneapolis detainment center. Are you proud of this? As a republican I'm appalled that you don't care at all. I will never vote for a republican for the rest of my life. This government is not the small government I thought you believed in. You have the power to restore safety. There is no law and order without order. This country was built in don't tread on me and Give me Freedom or give me death. No one is accepting your new motto "comply or die"
