    An ICE spokesperson confirmed to Documented that HSI’s Citizens Academies are still ongoing across the country. Similar initiatives are implemented by other law enforcement agencies, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), the spokesperson said.

    somehow the already very alarming headline was burying the lede… yes-honey-left

    God damn, a screenwriter would be scolded by their editor for being too heavy handed if they went half as far as this article says.

      Unfortunately in this case the story was made into two video games, one that is almost a parody in how much it polishes the boot of American civil religion (The Division 1 and 2)

    When in street clothes, due to liability issues anytime you engage a target, especially in a deadly force situation, you need to identify who you are, Police, drop the gun!, while drawing and firing on the target. Video, cameras, phones and witnesses.

    We know this is how cops operate, try to make it sound like there’s a deadly threat even if there isn’t, but this is what they’re training civilians to do?
