minus-squareCeeBee_Eh@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·1 day agoAre we talking about “people who do things that ICE is criticized for”? No. I literally said: It just occurred to me that I don’t think I’ve seen a photo of a single brown, black, or Asian ICE agent. They’re all white, aren’t they? I didn’t say “no US agency has non-white individuals”. My comment was specifically referring to ICE agents, and the context was specifically about the ones out and about creating chaos in the streets.
