Key Takeaways
Anyways, part of the documentary was how the police in Miami needed to expand quickly to deal with the rise in violence and crime and part of that was the necessity of lowering hiring standards that combined with hiring fast meant that corruption and bad actors permeated into the police force. At one point the entire graduating class in one year were eventually all arrested for varying levels of nasty stuff.
I think about that a lot when I see how fast and extensive they've expanded ICE, on top of the militarization of the force.
Frankly if anyone looks at their actions in Chicago and thinks that what they did is anywhere near acceptable then they're a lost cause. The only reasonable recourse is that when and if we get a new president every single person involved with ICE is persecuted, funding confiscated and recompense paid to all of the folks harmed by said organization. There's no other decision I'll accept.
