The 'scandal' of Perla Morales-Luna's arrest is fake news

The arrest of Perla Morales-Luna on March 3 in San Diego is an absolute nonscandal.

Yes, at first glance the video looks a little concerning. It shows a mother being separated from her screaming family as Customs and Border Patrol officers struggle to put her in the back of a vehicle.

But only at first glance. Because if you watch again you'll see that the CBP officers use proportionate force and good efficiency in getting Morales-Luna off the street and into custody. That's the best way to ensure no one is harmed and the situation isn't escalated unnecessarily. Moreover, the CBP wasn't simply detaining Morales-Luna because she was just a random illegal immigrant.

I don't think they had a "public safety" reason not to arrest her at home.  I think they should be open that they clearly wanted to send a very public message.
Micah 6:8  "...what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?"
