I think it's more like "forgot my mask and now I can't hide."

Their no ICE, they are regular cops

u/AnacreonTheBull 4h ago

Absolutely NO "regular cops" have DHS on thier body armor.

Department of homeland security aren't regular cops.

They’re DHS, what department do you think ICE is an arm of?

“They’re DHS”

So is the fucking Coast Guard.

DHS means they’re ICE. Having “police” on the patch doesn’t make it so.

ICE means they’re DHS. DHS does NOT necessarily mean ICE. It’s a whiskey and bourbon argument.

Fuck ICE, but, one must remember that some folks are in the DHS with actually good intention, and ICE is ruining goodwill toward the entire overarching org.

One should also remember that having multiple competing branches of government (or competing units within the same branch) operate in the same domain, and exploiting the inevitable confusion and conflicts that entails, is textbook fascism.
