    obligatory “he doesn’t own the franchise anymore so buying the ice cream will not support the cause”.

    I’m wondering about the disbanding thing . Say it was disbanded , or those “agents” with the 47 days of training are let go – are they going to take away all those fancy weapons from them? Are they going to let them hang on to the military grade gear “just in case” they are needed to be called back for “special actions”?

    Well look who suddenly found the courage to denounce state violence now that it’s not Russia who’s committing it!

  4. Once an agency gets so toxic, it’s leadership infiltrated by hardliners and loyalists that have now lost public trust, it’s hard to win it back with a PR campaign. I don’t think any American will see an ICE vehicle now and think of a law-abiding agency that has the public good and our laws in mind.

    That’s very sad for an agency that is very important for our national security. They’ve painted themselves into a space where defending them is anathema to many of us.

    Defund, disband and refound ICE as an agency that is built on respecting our laws and serving public interest.

  5. A new favor B&J named Pretti Good.

    (Have to go with the common mispronunciation of the Italian surname Pretti)

  6. Unpopular opinion: I don’t find their ice cream all that great but hey, good on you, founder!

    Good people. Thank you for not being little bitches like so many companies, musicians and actors.

    When Ice is disbanded there should be investigations so all officers who committed crimes are charged and sent to prison for them

    Also all agents should likewise be banned from any law enforcement role or any job that includes handling of fire arms. 

  9. FINALLY! I normally hold back from forming any solid political opinions until I know which way Ben & Jerry’s leans on the issue

  10. Future headline: ICE raids Ben and Jerry headquarters, burns down building with founder in it.
