Anyone who lives in an area where snow might be on the ground by Halloween knows a thing or two about ice. Ideally, those things will keep them from falling down every time they leave their house between November and March.
Apparently, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents weren't briefed on ice before MAGA Republican President Donald Trump dispatched an estimated 2,000 of them to Minnesota in the winter.
Multiple videos of what happens when ICE disrespects the power of ice in Minnesota quickly went viral across social media. A masked ICE agent found out the very hard way what happens when a person runs on ice without the proper gear.
You can see the video from one angle here:
And here it is from another angle:
People were not exactly oozing sympathy for the ICE agent who jumped from their vehicle to run across ice like he had something important to do.
And the best part? He immediately ran back to his vehicle after getting back on his feet.

This wasn't the only time ice took out ICE. A prior viral video showed two agents mistaking black ice for wet pavement, which is obviously a rookie mistake.
While the country is learning about the dangers of ICE, maybe it's time ICE learned the dangers of ice. A little additional training couldn't hurt, and would be a much better choice than waiting for warmer weather to melt the ground.
