There have been many questions as of late about the militarization of ICE and I decided I needed to do some research and get some answers. Here is what I found and admittedly much of it is contradictory and confusing especially in light of recent events.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is a federal law enforcement agency under the Department of Homeland Security. Established in 2003 by President George W. Bush after the September 11 attacks. ICE's mission is to protect the United States from illegal immigration and cross-border crime that threaten public safety and national security. ICE enforces federal laws related to customs, trade, immigration, and border control

Triggered mainly by circumstances resulting from Bacon’s Rebellion of 1676, in 1705, Virginia Colony’s House of Burgesses enacted “Slave Codes” that established a mind-set which, 70 years in the future would allow the founders of a republic blatantly to ignore the high-minded sentiments that they had expressed in a document intended to free themselves from what they quite cynically considered to be stifling oppression! That same mind-set, which soon after its birth developed into the psychological norm, almost a century later required close to a million mortal sacrifices to sustain the murky, ill-conceived compact agreed upon by the colonists. That skewed, psychological inset dragged us along for another hundred years. Today, although progressively dealing with the fallout, the remnants of that artificially created, psychological disorder are difficult to dislodge.

The sudden, Shakespearian expiration of Associate Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, the dominant beast among those powerful, legal lions who prowl the protective den where the precepts of this nation’s laws are stored, is a mark of a true drama queen.

California is the only state in America that Lane Splitting remains legal. Amazing.
Lane splitting has been analyzed and found that it is not the accident prone method of a two wheeled vehicle driving between lanes in moving, although mostly slow traffic, as I thought. Even though there is usually at least one motorcycle death a week in San Diego County.

Under American law—specifically, under the due process clauses of the Fifth Amendment (applicable under federal jurisdiction) and the Fourteenth Amendment (applicable under the jurisdiction of any of the several states of the Union)—the accused have a right to have their criminal cases proved against them beyond a reasonable doubt. In re Winship, 397 U.S. 358, 364 (1970). This is the highest standard of proof available, and it is only used in criminal cases. Moreover, the defendant is presumed innocent at the beginning of trial, and the prosecution alone has the burden of overcoming that presumption. Miles v. United States, 103 U.S. 304, 309 (1880).
