She said that there’s been a 500 percent increase against ICE agents who are just “trying to do their jobs and remove public safety threats from… communities.”
Exactly what the Nazis who ran extermination camps claimed.

Stephen Miller is basically a Nazi
He’s a fucking JEWISH Nazi - which is the worst kind of self loathing Nazi.
He’d be the first in the showers when the real Nazis come to town.
He’s a pathetic loser.

someone on bsky did the match and found out that 700% increase is still only like 70 incidents (i forget who it was that posted it)

Well, when you kidnap people in the street assaults against you can happen.

I loathe and despise using percentages like this.
500% sounds super scary, but is meaningless without providing the baseline. If there was only one instance before and now there’s 5 it isn’t a significant increase but 500% sure sounds scary.

Worse still it’s not even clear what is being discussed. It implied “violence” but that is a wide range from just pushing to serious shooting.
% can also be misleading when a scale is arbitrary. A temperature increase measured in Fahrenheit will be a rather different % when converted to Kelvin.

ICE also keep getting caught on camera lying about being threatened before they start beating some innocent

Sadly I haven’t heard of any ICE officers getting shot in the line of duty.

We all know that cops will accuse you of assaulting them if you so much as shrug while being arrested. I’d say that makes their statistics meaningless without specific details and proof.
