Have you ever witnessed an ICE raid 1st hand?
I have, I was out for dinner at a Mexican Restaurant in 1993.
Noticed a bunch of law enforcement vehicles pulling into the parking lot ICE and various others poured out of the vehicles, some rushed thru the front doors and the rest headed to a rear entrance.
They ignored everyone in the restaurant including the people who looked Hispanic. Including my part Hispanic wife.
They took about 1/2 dozen people in handcuffs from the kitchen and were done.
We received our food after about 10 minutes and everything had returned to normal.
My wife and I were searched by CBP at the Canada/ Montana border back in the 1980s too but that's not in Puna so I'll just say it happened because of a misunderstanding. It wasn't pleasant but we survived.
