I could see that as a reasonable argument for ICE, for customs enforcement. Seems like border patrol should be near a physical border, though. Otherwise, why make them two separate entities? They are largely serving the same function.

I guess it doesn't really matter though, we all know it's just an euphemism for brown people patrol at this point.
