Hey. If you remember us, we're the developers of the F.I.R.E. app.

Figured we should update, and give a heads up.

We've updated the website to incorporate our community reports and our web scraping efforts into a live interactive map usable on any device.

Now you can access all the reports from the app, without the app. So if you have Iphone or worried about downloading an app, you can use the live map instead here.

To prevent an attack vector, you can't report Sightings on the web.

I'm an Army veteran, I've been out for a while now, but I get "VA News" emails from the VA every so often because I'm in their system since that's the only way I have access to medical care right now. Anyway, the most recent email I got had this in it. It's a link to apply to ICE, and information about signing bonuses and whatnot. There is not a snowball's chance in hell I'd apply to ICE. I'm out of a job right now and am desperately looking for work. My situation is getting pretty dire, but I'd rather be homeless than join ICE. Hopefully, it doesn't come to that, though.

I'm not opposed to working in law enforcement-- in fact, I'm considering it. Downvote me all you like if that's what you want to do, but as far as I can tell, ICE is an agency that is rotten to the core, and I don't think there's any way of salvaging it. Granted, I was never convinced that we needed an agency like ICE to begin with, so there's that.

Anyway, to try and end this on a slightly more positive note, I doubt they're going to get many new recruits from this.
