As a European I don't understand what ICE is. Is it the police ? Or can I run away and not submit to their authority? Are their just some sort of Hitler's SA squads or more like Gestapo?

It's Immigration and Customs Enforcement. They're a law enforcement branch focusing on people and arterial entering the country. They should be focusing on human traffic and smuggling, but they've been turned into a gestapo.

So the whole situation in the US happens because those hogs don't have any uniform or legal ground to do what they do right ?

Once they can start disappearing people while wearing uniforms they will.
