How are you supposed to get a warrant for a person you can't even prove is who they say they are?

The usual way. It's not hard.

Further, if someone is actively avoiding law enforcement, wouldn't you think it would make sense to not look like law enforcement?

Yes, much better to just look like anonymous armed kidnappers. The downside is that actual anonymous armed kidnappers can pretend to be undercover ICE agents, which has already happened multiple times.

Also, where are you supposed to send a criminal that is awaiting deportation?

A regular jail, where they have access to a lawyer and the other protections of due process enshrined in our most fundamental laws.

I understand it doesn't feel good, but I know plenty of people that followed the process, and obtained citizenship legally, and you are all saying "fuck that, let's have criminals do whatever they want" because it doesn't feel good.

That might have a shred of validity if they weren't also kidnapping people who were following the legal process and attending their immigration hearings. Not to mention kidnapping actual citizens. And you all are saying "Fuck that, if your skin is brown you're going down."

No one is saying for criminals to do whatever they want. We just want you lot to acknowledge that the law of the land ensures due process to everyone, not just citizens.

By your logic, you would speed down the road in your car, and when you got caught, it's not fair because the cop was in an unmarked car, and wasn't specifically looking for you.

These people aren't being arrested mid-crime, they're kidnapping them from their homes, off the street, at their jobs, and again, at their legal immigration hearings. And there are multiple accounts of mistaken identity, or no specific target at all. Your analogy isn't applicable.

It's much more like a man in street clothes and an unmarked car who refuses to identify themselves, kidnapping me at gunpoint as I get into my car because it's a yellow sports car and yellow sports cars are statistically more likely to speed. Yeah, that's not fair.

Or just maybe you made the choice to speed, so you have to pay the consequences if you get caught?

And when you make the choice of wiping your ass with the 14th amendment, you have to pay the consequence of real patriots calling you a fascist bootlicker.
