There’s no reforming it.
There’s no compromise.
There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

So much wrong with the history in this amicus brief (as the OP here knows).
Birthright citizenship *was* medieval law in that children of aliens born in England were English. And being married to an English person exempted you from taxation.

1/ End roving patrols; tighten the rules on warrants and require ICE to coordinate with local authorities.
2/ Enforce accountability; a uniform code of conduct.
3/ Require masks off, body cameras on, agents carry ID.

Sal always got the job done. He not only did Job 1 of comics - let the reader know what is happening - but showed the impact. His work may not have been what you wanted to blow up and put on your wall, but that's not the job. A guy like Sienkiewicz could polish it, but didn't need to fix anything.
Sal Buscema, a comic artist best known for legendary runs on Marvel's Incredible Hulk and Spectacular Spider-Man, reportedly passed away last Friday, just short of his 90th birthday.
