ICE is the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency. It is a fairly new acronym, but I've seen it frequently of late. Best I can tell, it is under the umbrella of the Department of Homeland Security, another recent invention.
The US has a huge number of recent immigrants at this time, many of whom are not officially citizens. ICE is charged with the peculiar form of law enforcement for that portion of the population.
Thanks, Randy! Fine action, this.
It's not so much that many of the recent immigrants aren't citizens that makes the situation interesting, it's the fact that many of the immigrants have failed to ask permission of The State to move. Which I think rather cool of them myself.
Coyote: I don't understand what you mean.
Coyote - It's less a question of failing to ask permission in an open act of defiance, so much as a recognition of the futility of going through the legal channels of gaining citizenship. it is a prohibitively long and expensive process, which necessarily biases the immigration system in favor of people from rich (white) countries and against those who are less fortunate.
