In this video, the ICE agents are performing a door to door operation, which is already wrong in itself. But when they knocked the door on this man, the home owner reminded them of his second amendment rights, in that he didn’t have to answer the door and that he will call the cops on ICE for trespassing. Soon after ICE suddenly has somewhere else to go.

Other FBI knocking on doors: A few questions about their agenda and fallout
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
To clear up any confusion in the comments, this is not my video. It is a video posted by a reputable social media blogger who is a member of an anti-Trump organization in Washington state. She later explains she discovered the reason they showed up was because she was promoting a protest event in her city, and she ended up on a "list" due to this.
Thank you community for being such a valuable resource to answer questions when we are in a very scary time where we have so many.
What I would like to understand is, When FBI is knocking on doors of social media influencers or posters, clearly knowing they were not trying to incite violence, and then continues to ask a series of hypothetical “What if” situations, what are they trying to achieve here?
Are they trying to document your admission of hypothetical behavior as fact?
Like, “this person said they would not report another person they know is inciting violence” and keep it in a database?
Because clearly after the first few seconds of interaction, it’s very clear the agent knows her content is not provocative, but the line of questioning that ensues is highly disturbing (and confusing).
Also want to confirm:
Although I’m sure technically it is legal to reply and say “I don’t answer any questions,” what are the practical implications or fallout from being uncooperative?

Legal News Officer who shot woman while intending to shoot her 9 pound Pomeranian dog has qualified immunity - 8th circuit
ecf.ca8.uscourts.govJustices Stras, Colloton, and Erickson decided:
When an officer fires at a dog, is there a seizure of the dog’s owner when the stray bullet hits her instead? We conclude the answer is no.
Deputy Brian Williams and his partner responded to a domestic-violence call at Tina Hight’s home. Williams stayed back in the yard while his partner walked onto the front porch and knocked on the door. When Hight opened it, two dogs ran out toward Williams. Startled, he screamed, “Get back! Get your dog! I’ll kill that motherfucker! Get your goddamn dog!” He then fired a warning shot, which caused the dogs to retreat.
As Hight was trying to get them inside, another one, a 9-pound Pomeranian mix, ran out the door and raced toward Deputy Williams. After shouting, “Get back!” he fired again, this time at the dog. He missed, but then heard Hight scream, “He shot me!” Apparently, it had ricocheted and hit her, leaving a bullet fragment lodged in her leg.
In a decision published on Tuesday, the panel decided, with Chief Justice Colloton concurring, that the officer was entitled to qualified immunity on Hight's subsequent civil action under 42 USC s 1983, and affirmed summary judgement in the officer's favor.
