    I feel like they’re stupid for exaggerating it that much because its hard not to balk at fucking 1000%. Like more people would probably believe it if they had said, even like, 319% or something.

    And it just ruins their credibility further.

      That also means they have data for a base rate. How many brave and patriotic ICE agents are killed on the job every day?

      I’ve seen them on TV and I’m pretty sure the leading cause of death must be cardiac arrest.

      I wish it would, but you know the blue lines people are clutching their pearls at 1000%
