Two comments about this bunch of BS:
1. I would guess that ICE agent isn't even in the top 20 most dangerous occupations in the US.
2. If knowing the location of law enforcement endangers their lives, why do the great majority of law enforcement officers wear distinctive uniforms and drive around in clearly marked vehicles?

- defrost 1y agoThe "massive (percentage) increase" in assaults on ICE officers is a good example of How to Lie with Statistics * (1954, still a good book, worth a read). For comment, see: We now know that an “830% increase” is an increase from 10 assaults in 6 months to 93 assaults in 6 months, at a time when DHS has *massively* increased at-large arrests and officers deployed in the community. For comparison, NYPD is averaging 194 assaults on officers per MONTH. from: DHS Still Pretending 15 Assaults A Month Is Evidence Of Widespread Violence Against ICE Officers https://www.techdirt.com/2025/07/23/dhs-still-pretending-15-assaults-a-month-is-evidence-of-widespread-violence-against-ice-officers/ https://www.techdirt.com/2025/07/23/dhs-still-pretending-15-... * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_to_Lie_with_Statistics https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_to_Lie_with_Statistics
