I personally think optimism is better than doomerism, and that there is hope. Seriously!

    ICE was established in 2003 (Futurama is older than ICE) and since it’s creation has been a shit show.

    What purpose do you think they serve?

    Personally I think borders should be abolished, but even if you disagree border security is already handled by CBP and anything else can be handled by existing police structures (this is litterally how the rest of the world does it).

    ICE ONLY exist as a tool of white supremacy, they exist to terrorize non-white residents far from the border (a border that has existed for less time than indigenous people have lived here), because as previously noted border security is handled by CBP.

      Fair enough. I thought they handled regular customs and immigration stuff. I wasn’t aware that CBP was a separate department. Why indeed do they need both?
