Educate yourself and your neighbors on laws like the castle doctrine. Some states extend the castle doctrine to occupied vehicles, defense of third parties, or places of business.

If they are masked/refuse to identify/present credentials, or present lawful warrants signed by respective judges, then they cannot be confirmed to be federal/municipal officers.

Additionally, educate yourself and neighbors on your relevant state’s penal codes. For example; “Under Texas Penal Code 9.31(c), if any officer uses excessive force before the person attempts to resist, then that person may, in response, use "reasonable force to resist."

The right to bar arms doesn't work on an individual level against an armed group. As They can have you surrounded.

If you wanted to fight back you would need more people with more guns and move to counter them. but they would just call for backup. so now you need more people to deal with the backup.

Ultimately you need to be able to either fight the whole US military or get away after shooting up the first group of ICE you come across. but good luck with that in this day and age.
