I think this may be one of those occasions (the Charlie Kirk shooting was another) where it might be beneficial to create (or use the existing [ICE Pit thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ice-is-racist-fascist-lawless-and-running-concentration-camps/1025019/224)) as a parallel thread. Not just because people might like to shout and scream, but because the hijacks aren’t subject to the stricter moderation. If after getting the strong emotions or side tracks out of the system and polished by other responses, ones that would work in the P&E thread can be re-addressed there as well.
