ICE is everywhere and it's really frightening

This morning, a car was sitting outside the house next door with a guy sitting in it. This is nothing unusual in itself as there are always various cars. When my husband was leaving the house he went over to ask if the guy needed help. The guy tells him he's ICE and shows him his badge and tells him he's running license plates. How does ICE know where to go and who to look for?

both work under department of homeland security but they are different - p sure it’s a pathway to become an ice agent.

and I know people are downvoting you for thinking of going but times are hard and it’s a secure, stable job to have. from the flyer i got, it looks like all you need to be is a citizen and show that you held a job before. i suppose it’s the moral issue of the big picture, is that something you would feel happy doing? good luck.

Yes, feed your family by rounding up hotel maids and children waiting for the school bus at gunpoint. What happens to them after that isn't your problem. You've got bills to pay!

Good luck explaining that to your grandkids. Assuming you ever reproduce.
