      @gruber I imagine the ICE goons played Grand Theft Auto so they approach it from the player's perspective: celebrate and reward gratuitous violence.

        @gruber it’s almost like GTA was meant to be satire or something… 🤔

          @gruber oral history of GTA: the police are programmed as just another gang. They just have distinct uniforms, and a widened zone of geographic awareness.
