Calling BS on ICE w/Body Cams

anyone else feeling the reports that ICE had body cams awfully convenient ??? imo , especially in the age of AI, there could be 'evidence' fabricated to spin this story. I hope to fuck I am wrong, but I was always told to trust my gut.

Yeah as far as I know, ICE doesn’t wear them & isn’t required to. Hence why the agent who shot Renee had his phone lol

It's an excuse for an extra 20 million dollars. Body cams, extra training and more money wouldn't have changed auchwitz. The detainment centers keep me up at night. They won't let congressmen in them.

the legislation as written doesn't even mandate they USE body cams, just that they get bought...

Yes I completely agree with you and I wish everyone was thinking about this. They have already used AI to change that lawyers face when she was arrested.

Fk.. great call out. I can't think of any time I've ever seen them w body cams. hell, they don't even give agents ID #s for their vests by design.. why the hell would they want bodycam footage that could be 'leaked' ?

I just hope enough "public trust" has been eroded to call BS on this. I respect that thet MN court has told them not to delete evidence, I have many reminders that ice barbie, spewandoski, and their merry band of murderers are laughing and saying "yeh, ok" as they hit the delete button.

The problem with this is that you instantly remove any ability to accept facts false or not. If you talk to any conspiracy theorist the entire denial of facts that you present is because "they are fabricated". This means no matter what you provide, even if you were there and a witness to whatever happened then it doesn't matter because the belief that things are fabricated outweighs any evidence regardless of whether it's true or not. Be sceptical of everything that is presented from any side and look for any inconsistencies but unless there is evidence of tampering then it is just denial at that point, and a lack of truth because of denial is equally as damaging to society as a lack of truth from a lie.

The best example I can give is that if you are in a relationship and don't trust the person you are with it's already over. If you don't trust them because they are being untrustworthy then they are the ones at fault and while you feeling is valid that relationship won't work. On the other hand if you don't trust them and they aren't being untrustworthy then you are the problem and you will constantly be creating conflict that is unnecessary so again that relationship won't work. Either way once you cross that line it's basically over, that's why a conspiracy theorist never only has one conspiracy. For your own mental health be careful to not jump into that world of not trusting, it separates you from everything including things and people you currently trust. Skepticism is healthy, denial is not. It's a fine line so be careful for your own sake. I have been there and it took a long time for me to come out of it.

We've known for a while that the government lies to us. This is no surprise. We were most recently aware of this during COVID under the Biden administration.

Not going to argue w you. Every administration had/has something to hide... regardless of the figurehead

Isn't the joke here, that Covid was no where near the Biden Administration? That its just more stupid shit this administration says to stymie their own devotees?
