The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is facing backlash as it reveals plans to equip its agents with electric shock gloves, known as G.L.O.V.E. (Generator of Low Voltage Electric Discharges). The initiative, which is projected to cost around $20 million, aims to help agents manage confrontational immigrants.
Experts are raising alarms about the potential dangers associated with the use of these gloves. Concerns have been voiced that implementing such devices could endanger not only the immigrants being apprehended but also innocent bystanders.
