Can you imagine being an assassin and being asked to off ICE? That has to be the cheapest job going. Despite the fact they wear body armour, that's a pretty easy target to hit because bulletproof vests don't come in XXXL.
What are they doing, offering two for one offers. Or is it more of a pride thing and they're trying to work out how many they can take out with a single bullet.
Can you imagine being a citizen that carries a firearm, and seeing these people on the street trying to kidnap someone and not shooting them? I am shocked that this hasn't happened yet.
