> ICE separate[s] families" is such a ridiculous mischaracterization
It's accurate. They do separate families. How or why doesn't matter, the fact stands in its own. It's not a "mischaracterization", it's a fact.
So do the police/courts if your dad goes to jail. It's incidental to their purpose.
If context is irrelevant then every country in Europe already separates families, and thus how can this be a complaint?
