    Exact same way there wasn’t someone doing something when the Nazis perpetrated the Holocaust.

    Same way all the other genocides happen. People usually don’t like conflict and prefer to stay alive. Interfering with this stuff often ends with you losing your life and is a lot harder than shutting up and keeping your head down so long as you’re not getting clubbed too.

    Plus, these ICE goons are volunteering to be bastards - nobody is forcing them. That right there self selects for applicants who want to be a horrible human being. These are men and the occasional women who lack a conscience. They are straight up just morally reprehensible bad people whose disappearance would improve this planet.
