A shooting at an ICE facility in Dallas, Texas, resulted in the death of one detainee and critical injuries to two others. The gunman, identified as Joshua Jahn, died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound after opening fire indiscriminately. Authorities discovered ammunition at the scene with “ANTI-ICE” messages, indicating an ideological motive behind the attack. Law enforcement officials have stated this is the most recent in a string of attacks on ICE facilities.

Anti-ICE message on ammunition at Dallas shooting that killed two immigration detainees, a strange occurrence, indeed. This whole situation feels off from the get-go. The fact that the bullets recovered from the scene bore the message “ANTI-ICE” – specifically – immediately raises eyebrows. It’s almost too clean, too convenient. We’re led to believe that a shooter, driven by anti-ICE sentiment, specifically targeted immigration detainees.
This begs the question: why only detainees? If the motivation was truly anti-ICE, wouldn’t the actual ICE agents and facility staff have been the primary targets? The selective targeting, coupled with the message on the ammunition, suggests a narrative that feels… manufactured. It’s like someone sat down and thought, “How can we make this look like it was politically motivated?” and then decided to use a sharpie to write a slogan on a bullet, that’s going to be examined as evidence in a crime scene.
The way this “ANTI-ICE” message was presented, almost immediately after the shooting, before a proper investigation could unfold, is concerning. It seems like the narrative was being shaped from the get-go. Pictures of the ammunition were released before any established chain of custody or thorough forensic analysis. It feels like the authorities were trying to control the narrative, pushing a specific political angle, rather than letting the investigation follow the facts.
Adding to the strangeness is the phrasing itself. The use of “ANTI-ICE” feels unnatural. It’s the kind of slogan you’d expect to see on a protest sign, not etched onto ammunition intended for a shooting. How many people do you know who regularly express their disdain for something by simply using the prefix “anti-“? It feels a little too formal, a little too… sanitized. It’s a lot easier to believe it if the text written on the rounds were something along the lines of “F*** ICE”. It’s so unconvincing that it almost has a comedic effect.
The shooter’s own brother claimed he wasn’t particularly interested in politics. This adds another layer of doubt. This creates doubt around the authenticity of the anti-ICE motivation. The claim of a politically driven attack seems less likely when you consider the shooter’s personal background and the potential motives behind the crime.
It feels like someone tasked with crafting this narrative simply wasn’t very creative. Why not, “Abolish ICE”? Or something more forceful, more visceral? The fact that they chose “ANTI-ICE” just highlights the artificiality of the situation. It’s almost as if they used the least creative FBI agent in all of Texas to write the message.
Given that this is happening in this day of social media, you’d think the shooter would have been more likely to broadcast their thoughts on Twitter or a personal blog. But to resort to a few words on a bullet? It seems archaic, as if the shooter was deliberately trying to create the illusion of a specific motivation.
The whole situation has a strong scent of a “false flag” operation. The very act of writing a political message on ammunition, especially when it doesn’t fit the more natural inclinations of someone expressing their opinions, seems contrived. It’s as if someone wanted to make it look like a politically motivated act.
This whole scenario, from the phrasing of the message, to the selective targeting of victims, to the swift release of photographs, smells fishy. It’s difficult to shake the feeling that something doesn’t add up. There is a lot of reasonable doubt surrounding this case.
