The Database.

When citizens observe law enforcement, DHS apparently takes notes of its own.

Editorial cartoon outside an ICE operation. A civilian legally records agents with a phone. An ICE agent points a camera at him and says, Smile. The observer asks, For what? and the agent replies, The database. Another agent photographs his car and says, Get his license plate too. We don’t want an incomplete family album. A large screen is labeled DHS Observer Scrapbook.
