The responsibility for law and order is on local municipalities and police departments. When the local officials do not enforce the law it’s on the people of that community to make changes not the federal government acting in place of a dysfunctional police department or mayor. If changes can’t be made to the local government people have to choice to leave and relocate. But the last precedent that should be set is federal agents can come in and enforce local laws at Will. There’s an argument for them defending federal buildings but this seems bigger than that.

If reports are true they are moving in unmarked vehicles and detaining people outside the local judicial system that’s just beyond the scope of their power.

I get it something has to be done, but that doesn’t excuse anything being done. The constitution must be followed at all cost, otherwise our entire system is eroded from within.

Just think of Obama would have used this type of action after the unite the right violence. Perspective it matters
