Ironically the original intent of the second amendment was closer to "the states should have a lot of people used to using guns so they can raise militias if necessary".

ICE has recruited a lot of those people - you don't see as many weird paramilitary militia groups as you did back in 2020. So I guess it technically worked as intended here. Unfortunately that means more jackboots with "don't tread on me" flags on their unmarked vans.

Yep. The Proud Boys are effectively 100% incorporated into ICE at this point. Less sure about the 3%ers, haven't seen enough reporting on that.
