I can't imagine how they can justify that to themselves.
The domestic terrorist organization known as "ICE" is stalking people at food pantries. And following people who deliver food to those too scared to leave their residences to go to those pantries. Despicable, lawless ghouls.

They were eventually allowed one phone call as a thanks for saving the agent’s life.
They used it to call their lawyer, who called their state representative, who ultimately got them released on the condition they tell people they were “treated kindly.”

My cousin’s kids called my uncle “Pop.” Then, my dad’s grandchildren called HIM “Pop.” They wondered what would happen when the families got together. Both of them were “Pop” and “Uncle Pop” depending on which kid said it.

They refused to open the door because ICE Nazis were using the Child as bait. Jesus Fucking Christ!
ICE spokesperson Marcos Charles: "My officers stayed with the child. They cared for him. Took him to get something to eat from a drive-thru restaurant and spent hours ensuring he was taken care of. Again, my officers did that, not his father ... his family refused to open the door and take him back"

If that doesn't warm your heart, I think it's time to see a cardiologist.
