In the small town of Alexandria, Minnesota lies the best Law Enforcement training agency in the upper Midwest and considered by some the best in the United States. To get into this program you must complete rigorous athletic testing and pass a psychological exam. If accepted into the program, congratulations you will be a super athlete. The students in the program are well known throughout the town, often being seen in sheriff brown uniforms which they are required to wear each day.

Most cops seem to believe they will get more respect if they grow a "Law Enforcement Mustache." It's a great accessory to wrap-around and/or Top Gun style sunglasses.

When you see the Law Enforcement Mustache, you know to stop playing around.

The Law Enforcement Mustache is not to be confused with the "Football Coach Mustache."

The ICE employs 19,000 people worldwide and has a budget of about $5.7 billion (comparable to the military budget of Algeria or Norway). It is responsible for Detention and Removal Operations (DRO) of removable aliens.

The ICE also violates international laws on human rights by deporting immigrants (legal or not) accused of a crime (this is known as exile and violates international norms of criminal justice). This program is called "Secure Communities" and of course only makes communities a lot LESS secure; it has exiled over 14,000 immigrants for petty offices such as traffic violations.
