        Sign up, get hired, break everything, blame everyone else for the problems, enjoy the fast track to upper management… End goal destroy ICE while collecting a golden parachute? THE AMERICAN WAY!

    Some of my family members survived the Holocaust and concentration camps solely on care from specific guards or captains. My only hope is that a lot of people get $50K to infiltrate and fuck over ICE

      I feel like you would be weeded out pretty quickly. You can’t get to a position where you could do actual internal damage without committing some pretty heinous shit. LE is basically blood in blood out.

    And just for the price of your humanity, soul, morality, dignity, honor, and any principles, you too can be a pos for some money.

    There are only 13,000 or so right now? Jeez, it wouldn’t be that hard for a large group of us to just take them out then.

    With how fucked things are just trying to make ends meet, its getting harder to villify everyone signing up. Are they doing the wrong thing? Absolutely. Has it occurred to me that joining would financially secure me and my family? Yes.

      No, it’s still very easy to vilify anyone willing to do that. You could resort to back alley prostitution, selling body parts, or crime before you were economically “forced” to join the gestapo.

        I see people mentioning “just following orders” a lot recently in terms of an invalid defense, but the sad truth is this excuse worked for an overwhelming majority of Nazis. Only those issuing the orders at the top were prosecuted, at least outside of vigilante justice.

      Quick question. Are there any moral lines you would never cross for money? Seriously, what are they?

        I think it very much depends on the situation. If I’m already securely housed and have reliable income for food? No fucking way. If I have a kid who might end up living on the street (or honestly, taken from me by the state) if I don’t find money? I’d at least give this a fleeting thought.
