An ICE employee could be heard saying, "This is crazy!" while a San Francisco police officer at the head of the march could be heard saying, "We have no idea where they're going," referring to the protesters.
One man standing outside the ICE offices carried a sign in both Arabic and English that read, "No! Stop Trump/Pence fascist regime before it starts."
Meanwhile, other groups of anti-Trump protesters gathered on the Golden Gate Bridge and outside Uber headquarters.
