Its certainly the narrative being pushed. Every once in a while when something like this happens I like to go on Reddit or Twitter and see what the MAGA social media narrative pushers are trying to do and what people who casually browse their are seeing and saying. MAGA has obviously decided that the rhetoric is that that protester deserved it. A few conservatives and most liberals are angry. Corporate democrat liberals think ICE needs more money for better training.
I think I hate them the most.
