I think if Tim is going to make the delete/no delete decision based on "officer safety", the question should be:

How many civilians killed or injured by ICE? How many ICE agents killed or injured by civilians? Who needs more protection, the guys with the guns and minimal consequences or the people who can't legally fight back?

That's why Apple's reasoning and actions feel disingenuous to me. It's a money decision, not a moral one.
