It is not a good idea to lie to an employee of the USA.

Who said it's a lie? It's also not a good idea to operate a police state.

Sadly, I'm sure that will go over "not well" with ICE agents who will happily assault you for carrying a phone...

I disagree with the shooting too, but this is such a massive oversimplification of the event.

Alright, I'll rephrase - "ICE agents have shown a bias towards escalation than de-escalation in conflict situations, be it pepper spray, assault, detention, or worse. I think that trying to get into a shouting match with them about HIPAA violations on removing your face mask are not likely to result in "okay, carry on, as you were"."
