ICE agent kills man who tried to run him over in Houston's East

cbear : nope

cbear : I suppose we should be suing Mexico over every person who has illegally crossed our borders and killed one of our citizens.

@Jx5673 :
Conveniently these ICE agents had NO body cameras.

mgmdad : Who's WONG? Is ICE now going after folks with that name or similar?

He may have not been able to assimilate with a criminal background in another country. I am not saying that is the reason, but often if they are here this long and still illegal, there may be a record which would prevent a working visa.

ExCTGuyInTX : I found that interesting. How do you feel about flock cameras now?

ExCTGuyInTX : I read somewhere a passenger from Columbia? was the "target".

ExCTGuyInTX: not ' convenient' law passed April '25, that ICE and CBP do not have to wear them. Look it up.

@Jx5673 : I don't understand the question. Have I ever mentioned how I feel about flock cameras? Your question, "How do you feel about flock cameras now?", implies that I shared an opinion on the subject, which I don't believe I have.

LittleTexas :
All ICE agents should have them, and they should be on during any interaction.
There would be zero questions as to what really happened.

LittleTexas : I looked it up...You are incorrect. Focus on the "Policy vs. Reality:" section.
No. ICE and Border Patrol agents do not currently have to wear body cameras at all times. While the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has policies requiring body cameras, the rollout is incomplete. As a result, many agents have not yet been issued the devices. The lack of widespread cameras has sparked scrutiny and debate:Policy vs. Reality: ICE established a directive making body-worn cameras mandatory during enforcement activities. However, severe funding limits and government shutdowns have delayed the purchase and rollout of the cameras.Partial Rollout: As of recent congressional updates, only a fraction of ICE and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents have received cameras. Nationwide deployment is ongoing.High-Profile Gaps: Incidents without video have caused public concern. For example, DHS confirmed that agents involved in a fatal shooting in Houston did not have body cameras because they had not yet been issued them.

ExCTGuyInTX : sorry, I wasn't inferring you had, simply that a situation like this may influence one's opinion of said cameras. Thank you for engaging in the conversation in a civilized manor.
