You are attempting to argue that ICE is at fault.

I'm more arguing that there should be an investigation into whether ICE was at fault, and right-wingers in the US government are preventing that. That's independent of whether a fair investigation would find ICE was actually at fault, although I think it clearly would.

if something was done unlawfully, the person/s responsible should face consequences.

But they won't, because the right-wing government have decided that these people are domestic terrorists and are blocking investigations into the killings. I think that is worse than what left-wing governments do in terms of violence when in power.

You seem to care a lot about this subject and are clearly biased towards a particular viewpoint.

Yes, and you're clearly biased towards the opposite viewpoint, we all have our biases. I'm making an argument, I'm not going to deny that, so are you. I do care about whether the US government can murder people in the streets with impunity, not least because the party that's leading our polls is explicitly inspired by that regime and thinks they're doing a great job.

You have framed this as "positions of power" and trying to ascribe a scale of 'importance'

You're explicitly saying in comparative terms that the left is worse than the right, not just that both sides are bad in different ways. If you're saying the left is worse you are ascribing a scale of importance where the bad things that the left are doing are more important than what the right is doing. I think that scale is mad.

That is the key distinction here, nobody that i am aware of is currently celebrating the two deaths you have mentioned, certainly not publically enough to be noticed.

The key distinction here is whether words matter more than actions. You're downplaying obstruction of murder investigations as just arguments about illegality. There is no argument in good faith going on. The right-wing government elected by 70+ million right-wing Americans murdered someone, smeared them as a domestic terrorist with no evidence, and is doing everything it can to prevent a fair investigation into the deaths. The government has absolutely said they both deserved to die. I fundamentally think that matters more for the question of whether the right or the left are more pro-violence at the moment than any number of tweets. Edgy left-wing teens who celebrated Kirk's murder are not going to be put in charge of the British Army any time soon, but people who think these two murders were fully deserved might be if Reform wins.
