They get so little training I’m surprised we don’t hear more about them having accidents.

“Another ICE agent dead after staring down the barrel of his own loaded gun to check if it’s properly clean.”

“Two non-white ICE agents injured when each of them tried to deport the other.”

“A confused ICE agent was spotted selling ice cream from a van after being hired but never reading the onboarding pamphlet”

For and who aren’t familiar with the law:

Under international law, foreign consulates and embassies are considered inviolable. Law enforcement authorities are generally prohibited from entering without explicit permission, except in life-threatening emergencies such as fires. Ecuador’s Foreign Ministry invoked these protections in condemning the attempted ICE entry, warning that such actions violate the diplomatic safety of its nationals.

Experts note that attempts by US agents to enter foreign missions, even under immigration enforcement operations, risk creating serious diplomatic incidents. ‘Consulates are meant to be safe havens for citizens abroad,’ said one legal analyst. ‘Breaching that trust can have consequences far beyond the local context.’
