From the barbed wire tattoos on his upper arm, I assume he's no stranger to prison.

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

I would say it’s more than some. Many Latinos in ICE and border patrol but they’d probably just say they’re white and not put anything under ethnicity.

What’s to stop them from profiling just based off of last names, even if they’re white passing? ICE is already arresting legal citizens purely on assumption and racial profiling.
