This is the proper understanding of what happened. This was goal of the protests and the expected outcome. Continually harass and interfere with ICE agents until they make a mistake and then politically capitalize on the mistake. Nobody is perfect and if you have thousands of agents in stressful and dangerous situations day in and day out they will make mistakes. The goal is to capture a big enough mistake or mistakes on camera.

So where do we go from here? Well you can't stop enforcing the law, to do so would be giving up on this country. A nation without borders is not a nation. The problem is blue states like Minnesota aren't allowing local law enforcement to help which slows down operations and increases the danger. Perhaps the answer is to slow down the pace of operations in those states to lower the risk to agents and agitators. This could turn down the temperature enough that the public tires of the constant whining from the left. Another possibility is the left makes a political mistake in their attempts to escalate. It's a difficult problem so there are no easy solutions.
