ICE agents have a very strict admission test

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

If they pass it they aren't qualified

Trump said that he passed an " hard Intelligence test" which was really an Dementia screening (MoCA)

It was also a joke on they don't want people too smart joining like in the police, and some other fields :(

What's blowing my mind still is how these masked pigs driving unregistered vehicles are allowed to be above the law.. That's sinking lower than all 3rd world authoritarian countries. My country suck but at least I can see who's kinapping me, plus shooting rate is 0% in the last 26 years

Can you next time please put ICE in the title? I don't want to see ICE.

They aren't, and it's important that every American citizen knows that. They don't have police authority, and citizens have every right in an encounter with ICE that they would otherwise have. Now, I'm aware that asserting those rights will carry consequences, but we do still have them.

But they are. If the government and the citizenry doesn't strip them of that authority under threat of violence, then they have that authority, de facto.

The Brownshiirts weren’t cops, either, but that didn’t stop them from murdering people.

McSweeney’s: ICE Is Nothing Like the Brownshirts, Because the Brownshirts Actually Identified Themselves

Let’s say it again: ICE is nothing like the Brownshirts. One was an open paramilitary wing of an openly fascist political party, the other is an unaccountable government force operating without clear uniforms, identification, or transparency… for an openly fascist political party. There are SOME similarities between them, that’s true, but ICE is more like… well, we don’t really have a word for it in English. They are like… a government-sanctioned organization that operates without uniforms, masks its identity, infiltrates civilian spaces, and detains people without oversight, like some sort of… secretive… police-like thing.

But just because there isn’t a name for something like that does not give you the right to call ICE agents Brownshirts. That’d be like calling asbestos a “toxin.” Yeah, both will kill you, but THEY ARE NOT THE SAME THING.
