ICE isn't the border force. All border security operations, stopping people from crossing and customs inspections and such, are done by a different agency called CBP.

OK. Why not change the law, if you want to make undocumented migration legal?

Most people trying to boycott ICE don't think undocumented migration should be legal. They just don't think ICE is a good agency. (Again, ICE is not the only agency responsible for undocumented migration, so undocumented migration isn't automatically legal if they can't do their job.)

OK but we're getting close to circular logic here. If ICE is not bad because it enforces border laws, why is ICE bad?
