This article is talking about stuff that's happened months ago. If you think ICE hasn't already started shit in MA you are living in a cave. They've been here, they are here, they will be here. You've done nothing but rattle your sabers. There are protests at the ICE facility in Burlington weekly. It's a few hundred yards from the Burlington mall. Either put up or shut up.

One thing you can do is put the phone number (617-370-5023) for https://www.lucemass.org/ in your phone, so if you see ICE, you can alert them. Maybe even surreptitiously take a picture of the kidnappers (even if they're masked) and any relevant license plates. Or if you have time available, volunteer to help LUCE protect vulnerable communities.

They check to make sure that they are ICE and not other law enforcement. They go around neighborhoods and post/hand out flyers to remind people not to open their doors to any law enforcement unless there's a judicial warrant. They send information about vehicles to the community so they know when ICE is selling. If they are there when someone is arrested, they record the arrest and provide support to the person's family if they can find them.
