      They’re trained. And they probably don’t want to be there.

      ICE is untrained and very eager.

      Given a choice, which would you prefer?

      But yes, shit can always go sideways with this admin. They give zero fucks for We The People.

        I’d avoid both but if I had to choose, I’d choose the ones that swore an oath to the constitution. Expecting people to honor their oath is a losing bet though, especially American soldiers, given the training they go through that systemically destroys their ability to critically think.

        I like your optimism and wish I could share it, but that is very unit and personnel dependent and on a large gradient of quality.
