i finally ran across ICE today.
Today, to keep us all safe, about 50 uniformed DC Police officers and I don't know how many agents with other agencies (the kind where it is ok to wear masks) set up a traffic checkpoint, during rush hour, on North Capitol Street northbound. You know, so any dangerous illegals coming down into DC to work, get checked out fully before going home to Silver Spring I guess.. Anyway, they cut traffic down from three lanes to one and as I was walking my dog around there was media, protestors, and people alerting the backed up traffic that there was an ICE stop ahead.
It was, by far, the most officers I've ever seen in that area. It was also a huge waste of taxpayer dollars, taxpayer time in the form of sitting in traffic, and pretty much general stupidity on the part of everyone planning an ineffective spectacle. Lucky for me, I didn't drive to the office today and didn't have to sit in that mess in order to get home.
