This is now what's happening in California. May be too late there, but it's not too late in other blue states.

Side streets, alleys, and buildings from which to ambush patrols. Plenty of escape routes to get away after those ambushes. LA natives/long term residents would know the area, just like the insurgents in Fallujah.
LA also has more, taller buildings. Great for ambushes.
Insurgency nightmare.

Though civilians are only watching and sometimes yelling, ICE shoots tear gas at them and a passing car. They fire right at a woman. She had not done anything to threaten them.

What part of "insurgency nightmare" did you miss there? The constant dread knowing that you could be hit any time, any place wears on a soldier's psyche quickly.
Look at Fallujah. Look at Ramadi. Look at Sadr City.

Plus, Iraq would be a better comparison. Iraq was an insurgency nightmare, just like LA or any major city would be.
A few months of constant attacks and soldiers would start deserting or turning their rifles on the officers that keep sending them out there to face more.

I know you said this wouldn't affect the job reports and things like that, but would this affect people/organizations being able to fact check the government reports?
