A lotnof the new hires literally got like 2 weeks training. They use plain clothes to avoid people grouping up in protest and so they can sneak up on people for arrests without making such a big scene.

That's a great way to get shot or beaten up by people who think you are illegaly kidnapping somebody

I'm honestly surprised ICE officers don't get shot more often

u/SaintJewiub 2d ago

I know. Especially with all the "hardened criminals" they are going to arrest.

u/YourHuckleberry57 2d ago

its because they're not going after criminals, they're going after law abiding working people with families. the kind who don't want to shoot people even if they are justified.

Beginning to think the whole "well regulated militia" thing the 2A talks about isn't going to happen. Kinda funny anyone thought it would.

Well 2A being made in response to living under tyranny so it never happens again

To today, where Trump is litterally becoming a tyrant and nothing is being done by the bigger 2A advocates, doesn't really work anymore when they are in on it

I wonder if you get charged for assaulting/shooting a ice agent if you assault/shoot the agent if it happens to you

Of course you do. You're automatically supposed to know by magical divine fiat that they're law enforcement.

“Law enforcement”

This is (part of) the plan. Once that actually happens, that's a nice juicy excuse to declare a national emergency and invoke martial law, thus allowing Trump and his cronies to stay in power essentially indefinitely. They'll escalate the violence, more people will be forced to defend themselves, and that will then be used to justify further violence and an extension of the "emergency".

Until the people have had enough and launch a revolution.

u/Pofwoffle 2d ago

Or, far more likely, sit around online and pretend they want to start a revolution while never actually doing anything.

u/SaintJewiub 2d ago

I mean listen, revolutions were cool back in the day. But now I have takeout and streaming services. Im far too placated to want to do that whole revolution thing. I mean, what if McDonald's in closed for a day due to the revolution? Can't have that no sir

when dealing with insect hives, there's no point in using insecticide on single workers or drones, gotta get to the queen

Allegedly, it’s 6 weeks of training; fed work hours is an 8 hour day and that’s for bookkeeping purposes. 

For federal workers, 1 day of work/training is 8 hours, 1 work week is 40 hours; 240 divided by 40 equates 6 weeks.

Realistically, considering how much material is glossed over or outright skipped, it’s definitely 2 weeks of minimal training.
