Contributing sentiments towards policy:
56% : ICE agents routinely approach when their targets are on their way to work.56% : ICE has re-established its presence in places like Maine because they have more money than they know what to do with.
53% : So do ICE agents.
53% : No guarantee that ICE agents will be better trained.
50% : But the ICE tactical mistakes are always the same, too: they stand in front or behind vehicles that might accelerate at any moment.
49% : A bevy of Democrats are scrambling to fill Platner's place, and while the identity of that person is yet to be established, whomever emerges from that pack will have a built-in metaphorical stick to beat the incumbent with: ICE.
48% : ICE, the gangsters of law enforcement, have adopted a similar philosophy when it comes to bodies and body cams: no video, no case.
44% : Which raises another point: If ICE and other immigration agents must be held accountable for their reckless actions, so, too,
41% : The latest fatal shooting by ICE agents was in Biddeford, Maine, on Monday.
41% : Just like the administration, which has unleashed an undertrained, unaccountable paramilitary force, every accusation by ICE is a confession about themselves.
38% : But for ICE, and the administration in Washington that sends them out like dogs on a hunt, there is no wrong guy.
38% : They said he was on his way to work around 7 a.m. when ICE stopped him, mistaking him for some other guy they had orders to arrest.
37% : As was the case with a Mexican man ICE agents gunned down in Houston last week, there was no body cam video of the fatal encounter.
36% : No case meaning no case against them, the ICE agents who, after a pause to let national outrage die down after they shot and killed two protesters in Minneapolis, have resumed shooting people with reckless abandon.
33% : As is their wont, the trigger-happy ICE agents apparently got the wrong guy in Biddeford.
16% : Of course, that they do this gives away the store; it exposes the lie that the Trump administration is prioritizing the worst of the worst, the gang members who terrorize immigrant communities, the murderers and the rapists, etc. That's not what ICE is doing, and it's not what ICE was doing when they shot Joan Sebastian Guerrero in Biddeford on Monday or Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Houston last week or the next guy they shoot somewhere else.
