This event scores low on constitutional damage (A=7.1) as it involves legitimate law enforcement action against criminal gang members through standard enforcement mechanisms. While civil_rights concerns exist around profiling (2.0) and rule_of_law questions around selective enforcement (2.0), the action uses existing legal frameworks. The narrow population scope and high reversibility limit constitutional impact. However, the distraction score is high (B=29.6) due to strong political messaging components. Layer 1 shows high media friendliness (8) and outrage potential (7) around gang violence narratives. Layer 2 reveals significant strategic value: reinforcing immigration threat narratives (8), timing in early administration (6), and mismatch between enforcement scale and publicity (7). Intentionality is elevated (11/15) given explicit dual purpose of 'legitimate law enforcement AND political messaging' per summary, Venezuelan focus aligning with broader geopolitical stance, and symbolic gang targeting. The D-score of -22.5 clearly places this as List B: legitimate action amplified for maximum political benefit.
