Border Patrol Agent Recorded Raid with Meta’s Ray-Ban Smart Glasses (www.404media.co)

On a recent immigration raid, a Border Patrol agent wore a pair of Meta’s Ray-Ban smart glasses, with the privacy light clearly on signaling he was recording the encounter, which agents are not permitted to do, according to photos and videos of the incident shared with 404 Media.

Previously when 404 Media covered Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) officials’ use of Meta’s Ray-Bans, it wasn’t clear if the officials were using them to record raids because the recording lights were not on in any of the photos seen by 404 Media. In the new material from Charlotte, North Carolina, during the recent wave of immigration enforcement, the recording light is visibly illuminated.

They're inhumane terrorists, and I think it's important to point out they're fucking idiots. DHS dramatically lowered its standards to recruit so many so quickly, and we're dealing with some of America's meanest idiots being given a badge and a gun and told to run wild.

They're stupid even by American law enforcement standards, and that's saying something. People are pointing out that this is against the rules, but I'm not even sure these guys can read the rules.

The South Park episode with ICE recruits is hilarious and probably non-fiction.
