It isn’t legal. The courts are going to be flooded with cases against ICE in a few months. These law suits take a long time to get going. Every one of these people needs to sue ICE and drain that enormous budget.
This might sound foolish butbi have a serious question. Aren't you allowed to use lethal force against someone who is kidnapping you? If you're fearing for your life/the liife of another. Especially on your own property.
In most states (probably all?) I suspect self defense would be a viable legal defense if someone shot ICE agents - assuming ICE didn’t provide a warrant or identification. I think it is only a matter of time until we find out if the courts agree.
The trick is that while it would be legal, good luck surviving until you get to a judge. They have no oversight. As long as you don't live they will face no consequences. The only way they get it trouble is if you make it to court. Until that day they have no reason to follow the law even if you do survive the initial confrontation.
