They always do. Literally every time.
The pigs always start shit.
They want this to escalate. They're just looking for an excuse to go to war.
“Federal” “cops”?
- ICE is "Immigration and Customs Enforcement" which, yes, is a Federal-level law enforcement agency. They are absolutely considered "police" or "cops."
  FBI definitely isn't the only Federal law enforcement agency. Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) is also law enforcement, for example.
  
  Even the IRS has an enforcement (cops) unit.
