You're right that immigration enforcement in the past did not have to deal with mobs trying to interfere with that enforcement.

DHS's own data proves that current enforcement priorities have changed.

So what's more probable in your mind?

( Hypothesis A ) -- Mobs trying to interfere with law enforcement has caused DHS to focus on arresting and deporting immigrants without criminal background

( Hypothesis B ) -- DHS's focus on arresting and deporting immigrants without criminal background has required significant scale-up of personnel with minimal training (validated by DHS's own data) and required tactics that a large number of Americans believe to strike an unacceptable cost-benefit balance

( Hypothesis C ) -- The two facts (enforcement approach and public response) are not causally related to each other at all
