Ted Bundy pretended to be a detective to try to lure at least one girl, but thankfully she escaped. How many others weren’t that lucky?
We might see a brief resurgence in serial killers if they start to realize this is a valid tactic, and this shit will get ICE agents shot because many people carry guns specifically for over the top scenarios like these.
I sure as hell would start shooting. In Canada, if someone was actually trying to kidnap someone like that and the victim fired back, their shooting would be justified. They would still go to jail for years for illegally carrying a gun but the actual shooting would be justified. There is precedent for this in Canadian law.
Exactly. Many criminals who do terrible crimes get caught because they panic and make dumb mistakes in fits of anxiety (criminals are humans, too, and like many humans in very high pressure situations, especially ones where your entire life is at stake if you fuck up, they crack).
But… a calm psycho or someone who really prepared well for it? That is scary as all hell.
Can’t help wondering how many stone cold rapists and paedophiles are out there pretending to be ICE and kidnapping people.

I rather suspect ICE agents are also carrying guns for that scenario.
Everyone in the US has a gun…
I think the serial killers just got smart and took official positions where they can do horrible shit with the government’s blessing
Perfect opportunity for them. Even worse are organized hate groups like KKK and friends
So, the ICE and Police?
Some of those that work forces…
A lot more than any republican would every be willing to admit.
Here are some example of different impersonations:

What is most disturbing is that most of those are chaotic, disorganized impersonators who therefore got caught.
There are probably calm, professional-looking adults doing this and flying under the radar.

Could pretending to be ICE be a useful guerilla tactic?
Seems to be working for ICE
It’s safest to assume it’s all of them without exception.
