How about we just arrest them all instead?

1. ICE employees or ICE agents? It’s not very clear what they’re trying to ban.

2. Why add teachers in there. We all know no they can’t read and didn’t pass high school. You can’t teach if you couldn’t pass. That’s like saying a fry cook at McDonald’s can’t perform brain surgery.

Details will determine if this is fair or overreach.

Accountability is good,but broad bans raise questions.

[I just read an article about how ICE guards at Dilley are taking away children’s crayons and drawings.](https://www.propublica.org/article/dilley-detention-center-kids-art-removal)

I don’t just want them blackballed from civil service jobs.

I want them on a public list like sex offenders and prosecuted.

How is this structured to avoid overreach.

Deport ICE to CECOT.

Legal questions will come first.

Policies like this often lead to long legal battles. I’m curious how “barred from civil service” would hold up in court.
