Honestly all these people in ICE that have reservations about what ICE is doing need to quit now or face future prison time. After last week there’s no justifying working for ICE (there were many many reasons before mind you) and having ICE on your resume is going to be a massive red flag. People might forgive you if you leave now and say “this is too much”.

You give them too much credit. Our actual police don't have a great track record, and they aren't exactly well trained or educated.

Ice are the bottom of the barrel schoolyard bullies who couldn't cope with actual jobs and are using the little power they have to beat the living s*** out of their friends and neighbors and when they pull down the mask they hope to have a nice brunch with the same people on the weekend.

Nobody is going to jail either now or in the future. The only justice that they will face is what people bring upon them.
