Thanks for your service OP. When did you retire?

That would be a legitimate concern. HOWEVER... currently, the overwhelming majority of people being targeted by ICE are harmless farm workers, busboys, cooks and dishwashers, hospitality industry housekeeping staff, construction and maintenance workers, and so on, with absolutely no connection to narcoterrorists or other crooks.

The OP said he retired 10 years ago.

If 4 men rode up in an unmarked SUV, hopped out with masks on, Ann counted they were ICE but presented zero proof and grabbed your wife or daughter, what would you do? Would you stand back respectfully, like Republicans tell us you must? Ot would you “obstruct” by doing something minor to try to make sure they were being kidnapped and raped, and risk jail?

How do you feel about the current situation where so many ICE agents wear masks, balaclavas, and the like when they are detaining migrants?

In 2025, are you embarrassed to tell people that you were once ICE?

How do you deal with the fact that people would really hesitant leave you alone with their loved ones based on your profession?

If you were asked to take part in arrests of the type we’ve seen publicized, would you have?

How to you feel about the arrests of Judges, Senators and other elected officials by ICE?

Do you believe all the “ICE officers” we are seeing in sneakers and jeans and sloppy street clothes for arrests not undercover but in places like Courthouses (where everyone has been well screened for weapons) is appropriate?

What are your thoughts on ICE going around wearing masks, refusing to identify themselves, refusing to present warrants, showing up in unmarked civilian vehicles looking like they could just be a bunch of Proud Boys wearing storebought tactical gear to kidnap random people off the street?

...thoughts *on the anti-ICE protests? (apologies for typo)

What are your thoughts son the anti-ice protests?

Was there any difference in mission focus and leadership style under a Democrat presidency vs. Republican?

By policy, we were not required to provide our identity (only badge number). At that time, it was more out of concern about potential targeting by narco-terrorists and other crooks.

Are there many people with integrity within the rank and file that would prioritize due process and the constitution as their main loyalty or are they more like “crack a few eggs to make an omelette” the ends justify the means type of people?

Did you hide your identity to avoid accountability?

I retired 10 years ago (thankfully) but willing to give insider perspective and answer any questions.
