(197,179 posts)I saw the story too.
Certain industries realize where to focus their recruitment - the CIA is Ivy League, pharmaceutical reps were college cheerleaders, ICE is going after the Yellowstone crowd.
I have a coworker who goes to the black rodeo tour stop in Maryland. Its a big deal. Makes sense, about 1/2 of the cowboys post Civil War were black. The actual Lone Ranger was black.

If I were them, I suppose I would apply....
but I have never been them, nor put my conscience up for sale

Police officers are sworn. Heck, I had to swear an oath to uphold the Constitution when I began teaching. I can't see the ICE thugs doing that.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
