    ICE officers are paid a bonus every time they detain someone.

    There you have it.

      Yup. This is by no means the first allegation they get paid bounties. It was being said everywhere just prior to the shootings of Mrs. Good and Mr. Pretti last month.

      Perverse incentives breed perverse behaviour.

    Ask yourself would you go to Nazi Germany back in the forties? If no, then don’t come to Shitler 2.0’s version.

          Well, if the analogy continues, by 2045 there is going to be a Chinese dude with too many wristwatches putting a Chinese flag on the Capitol building while other Chinese dudes drive German and French made military trucks rolling about in the ruined DC streets.

    I am sorry for your incident but; sorry to ask: with all this mad circus in the USA why would people still insists in travel there?

      I’m guessing many people still think having valid documentation will keep you out of trouble.

      It doesn’t. They have ridiculously high quotas to meet, and seemingly no consequences for laws broken by them.

      There really shouldn’t be any more travel to the USA for now. Even North Korea has a warmer welcome for travelers (but don’t travel there either)

        Honestly a bunch of people are just totally removed from the news cycle and just have no fucking clue, or even if they do, they just think of it like it’s fiction, it would only happen to “other people™”.
