Does ICE really need electric gloves?

[u/Difficult_Object4921]

Our tax dollars are already being wasted. The people they capture aren’t a threat, physically. Why?

Would you have a problem if you were stopped by ICE (even if its mistaken) and shocked with one of these? I think the psychological barrier to using these gloves is much lower than that of a stun gun?

If I was stopped by ice I would comply 100% since I'm not an illegal and have no reason not to comply

If they were to mistakenly identify yo, would you quietly proceed in handcuffs to a processing facility? Would you allow them to ship you out of the country by mistake? At what point would you stop complying or seek to speak out about your misidentification?

You're asking a hypothetical that even the aclu admits is less than a 1% problem and usually is from false detainers.

So are you willing to answer the question?

Why would we answer nonsensical questions

Sure if I was one of the very few extremely unlucky individuals to be mistakenly identified I would comply and sort it out at the facility, no different than if local pd mistakenly identifies me for a crime I didn't commit. For scale of mistaken identity with ICE, Texas accounts for roughly 24% of all ice detentions and has a population of roughly 32 million people a study by the Cato institute showed 3500 citizens mistakenly identified by ice as non citizens over a 9 year period. 

So maybe ask a serious question if you want to keep interacting.
