Part 3/11:
One particularly alarming incident involved an attacker targeting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facilities. The killer, allegedly inspired by media narratives and political figures, wrote anti-ICE messages on bullets and used an app that publicly shared the real-time locations of ICE agents—information linked to the attack. The shooter aimed to kill ICE officers but tragically also wounded or killed others, including an illegal immigrant in custody and multiple agents.
This pattern of political violence escalates with the circulation of apps that track law enforcement, making them vulnerable to targeted attacks. DHS officials report a staggering 1,000% increase in threats and assaults against ICE personnel, underscoring the dangerous environment law enforcement faces today.
