Kun Iranin tilannetta odotellaan, niin tästä vähän tutummasta aiheesta. ICE ei puheista huolimatta keskity kaikista pahimpiin ja jengirikollisiin, kun pitää saada pidätyslukemat ylös.
Tässä oleellisimmat palat raportista:
"As of June 14, ICE had booked into detention 204,297 individuals (since October 1, 2024, the start of fiscal year 2025). Of those book-ins, 65 percent, or 133,687 individuals, had no criminal convictions. Moreover, more than 93 percent of ICE book-ins were never convicted of any violent offenses."
"During the first two weeks of June, ICE brought into its custody nearly 927 non-criminals. That represents a roughly threefold increase compared to the rate of non-criminals booked in during the first week of this administration."
"This shift in policy resulted from White House Deputy Chief of Staff
Stephen Miller’s meeting at the end of May, when he ordered ICE to start arresting more non-criminals. “What do you mean you’re going after criminals?” he said. “Why aren’t you at Home Depot? Why aren’t you at 7‑Eleven?” Since then, ICE and Border Patrol have shifted to roaming US streets and workplaces to round up immigrants, regardless of the public threat they may pose."
"The White House has ordered ICE to meet an unreasonable quota of
3,000 arrests per day, a target they were nowhere near achieving as of June 14. Agents are complaining about how the quota is undermining public safety in interviews with conservative outlets like the
New York Post and
Washington Examiner. The White House is focused on “quantity over quality,” one agent
told the
New York Post.
The agents told the Post that ICE’s quota was forcing them to leave “some dangerous criminal illegal migrants on the streets.” ICE shifted away from fugitive operations to focus on asylum seekers at courthouses, immigrants who regularly check in with ICE, and other non-threats."
Boldaus on oma. Tylysti tiivistettynä Stalinin tyyliin on annettu pidätyskiintiöt ja ne saa helpoiten täyteen esim. työpaikoilta, joten rikolliset jää kadulle, kun niden jahtaaminen on paljon hankalampaa. Määrä korvaa laadun.
