Not enough racist scum to go around?
The hiring pool of spouse-beaters is looking kinda dry these days...
@jeffw just imagine the individuals they’re hiring.
Then realize they’re 100 times worse than whatever you’re imagining.
Oh noes, what are local lar enforcement going to do when they run out of fascist thugs to recruit? Oh the humanity!
They hire... wait, I know this. Mexicans? Geez, this is hard.
And just for the price of your humanity, soul, morality, dignity, honor, and any principles, you too can be a pos for some money.
Let's be real here, nobody signing up for ice had any oth those things to begin with.
Some of my family members survived the Holocaust and concentration camps solely on care from specific guards or captains. My only hope is that a lot of people get $50K to infiltrate and fuck over ICE

I feel like you would be weeded out pretty quickly. You can't get to a position where you could do actual internal damage without committing some pretty heinous shit. LE is basically blood in blood out.
With how fucked things are just trying to make ends meet, its getting harder to villify everyone signing up. Are they doing the wrong thing? Absolutely. Has it occurred to me that joining would financially secure me and my family? Yes.
No, it's still very easy to vilify anyone willing to do that. You could resort to back alley prostitution, selling body parts, or crime before you were economically "forced" to join the gestapo.
Oh, oh! And let me guess, your defense would be "But I was just following orders!"
I see people mentioning “just following orders” a lot recently in terms of an invalid defense, but the sad truth is this excuse worked for an overwhelming majority of Nazis. Only those issuing the orders at the top were prosecuted, at least outside of vigilante justice.
Quick question. Are there any moral lines you would never cross for money? Seriously, what are they?
This one, hence why I haven't done it.
I think it very much depends on the situation. If I’m already securely housed and have reliable income for food? No fucking way. If I have a kid who might end up living on the street (or honestly, taken from me by the state) if I don’t find money? I’d at least give this a fleeting thought.
Donkey.
There are only 13,000 or so right now? Jeez, it wouldn't be that hard for a large group of us to just take them out then.
