"Perhaps a contributing factor to the ICE shootings is what this reporter discovered when it appears she went through a 6 minute interview before sending her an acceptance letter. Apparently they didn't even check her out on the internet, much less a background check. If so, then we can expect more, and increase the odds Trump will resort to the Insurrection Act. Let's hope not nor that his declarations increase, as declaring martial law would prevent elections. I doubt that will happen, but I don't put it past his obvious narcissistic authoritarianism.

Maybe choose a more trustworthy source than Slate?
Oldbear I agree, which is why I worded my statement the way I did. Both the far left and far right media have their own agenda and biases. However, now that it's pretty common knowledge that those recently hired ICE dudes only get 47 days of training, this article caught my attention. If true it certainly matches some of the incidents on television, and I am not discounting the improper &/or unlawful conduct of the masses.
The lack of training is inexcusable, and if the article is true then it is almost criminal, and certainly not what we should accept from our government.
