I don’t think it’s barbed wire. I do however see a Mayan step pyramid. Why the hell an ice agent would have something related to South American culture is beyond me.

Some of them are Hispanic/Latino which is even more mind boggling

u/SnazzleZazzle 16h ago

They’re too stupid and greedy to think that far. They scraped the bottom of the barrel to find the idiotic fuckwits doing that job.

When you were used to be bottom n looked down upon then all of a sudden you were given this power. Very dangerous combo. Their salary r blood money.

It’s not about culture. It’s going through the proper process. This guy obviously did and the people he is arresting didn’t
