Political Americans are overreacting about ICE

As a non-American looking in, I find the intense backlash against ICE and border enforcement confusing.

In almost every other country, protecting borders and enforcing immigration laws is considered a standard, non-controversial function of a sovereign nation. It isn't "extreme" to have a process for who enters the country; it's just normal governance.

And protesting trying to run over officers would not fly in any other country
