That sounds like some shit straight out of Snowcrash. And then we got ICE buying a couple of robot dogs...

“As part of Mr. Lee's good neighbor policy, all Rat Things are programmed never to break the sound barrier in a populated area. But Fido's in too much of a hurry to worry about the good neighbor policy. Jack the sound barrier. Bring the noise.”

Don't forget the electric shock torture gloves that ICE recently ordered.

Now those can be widely deployed. They won't get a chance to lay hands on me without a firefight though.

It means anyone approached by a member of ICE who's wearing gloves should fight like hell before they can be touched.
