Maybe a true police officer? Someday, they can hopefully be able to press charges and be compensated for the damages.
No, livestream it on Facebook/YouTube.
Document, document, document. It's the only thing informing the world.

Your child should comply as instructed, just as he would with any law enforcement officer if they happen to stop him and request identification. It's straightforward and basic when encountering ICE or a police officer.

They are disappearing people with no criminal record. They are detaining US citizens.
You do not have to speak to ICE or answer their questions. You can assert your right to remain silent and request a lawyer. You can decline their request to search you or your vehicle. ICE is not allowed into private spaces without a judicial warrant.
OP, here are resources from the Minnesota ACLU:

https://www.aclu-mn.org/know-your-rights/know-your-rights-college-students/
While technically correct, this generally terrible advice from a practical perspective.
If OP’s child is a citizen, s/he should politely answer ICE’s questions and carry/provide proof of citizenship if requested.
99% chance that will end the interaction safely and with no further action.
Correction: If OP's child is a white citizen...

Most people don't carry proof of citizenship in the US though. It's not customary and we usually consider those important documents that we store away.
If you’re genuinely concerned, easy enough to take keep photos of docs on your phone. That, combined with polite and cooperative approach, is very likely to suffice.
yet, the evidence from the recent events tells us a completely different story.

From a practical perspective, compromising our rights by collaborating with law enforcement beyond what’s required is what created the unaccountable secret police we are dealing with today.
We change this by understanding and demanding our rights.
1. You want to take a stand? Go for it. But if OP wants to keep their kid safe and out of detention? Follow my advice.
2. Separately, I think your argument is flimsy. I’d argue that failing to support the enforcement of laws is what created today’s situation—by excusing the Jan 6 rioters and Trump on the one hand, and by not enforcing our immigration laws on the other.
You do you. But I think your approach is neither safe at an individual level nor productive at the societal level.
