Was it an official with ICE or the Border Patrol? I forget.
That wasn't civil. On the other hand, that one presumably pro-immigrant act of extreme non-civility doesn't say a whole lot about the millions of other people who are pro-immigrant or at the very least anti-child-abuse. I'm sure that at least some of them don't carry around dead, burned dogs, seeking out doorsteps to leave them on. That would be a health hazard, if nothing else.
They're as monolithic as we are, no matter how you switch up "they" and "we".
I'm sure there was somebody on the other side who said, "Guy brings a dead dog and drops it on a family's doorstep, and you think civility is the correct answer?" and who was, to my thinking, an idiot.
