53. No doubt there are *some* ICE agents who are "good folks",

and hate what they have been ordered to do, and how they have been ordered to do it---
I feel most sorry for those particular agents.


BUT, like any police force, they have their quota of SCUM in the ranks who
undoubtedly would have become criminals, if they hadn't been given a badge---

and a good number who have become criminals WHILE wearing the badge,
and a MASK...


Probably those same bastards complained about having to wear a mask during COVID
