"No doubt you've been reading various stories recently about the brutal tactics and wanton cruelty of United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as it attempts to appease Glorious Leader's inflated quotas for the rounding up of undocumented immigrants in American (primarily blue) cities. There was the 19-year-old college freshman, for instance, detained and deported to Honduras over Thanksgiving break, a country she hadn't been to since she was seven years old."
"The Roshel Senator Emergency Response Vehicle (ERV) features CEN B7 ballistic armor that is "designed to stop a .50 caliber round," and also sports an especially armored underside that according to the company can defend it against the equivalent of "an 8 kilogram TNT blast" from below. Everything about this vehicle's description and capabilities points toward an obvious use case: In full-on combat, not against paltry threat of stone"
ICE used an expanded budget to purchase 20 Roshel Senator Emergency Response Vehicles for a reported $7.3 million from an Ontario company. The vehicles feature CEN B7 ballistic armor rated to stop a .50 caliber round and an armored underside claimed to withstand the equivalent of an eight-kilogram TNT blast. The acquisition occurred amid reports of harsh ICE enforcement actions, including a 19-year-old student deported to Honduras and the disappearance of a detained L.A. man after a medical emergency. The purchase bypassed domestic manufacturers and raised concerns about militarized tactics, urgency justification, and the optics of heavily armored units operating in civilian urban areas.
