I still wonder how it is that hotels where ICE is staying manage to make it through night after night without a 3am fire drill.

I assume there’s some logistical reason for this? Like…they must have security that prevents the general public from wandering in and pulling the fire alarm? Genuinely curious.

@inthehands Most hotels have basic security on entry ways and exits. Like someone would have to sneak in and do that or someone has to put their job on the line. That is assuming that there are pull alarms at all.

I’d be surprised if a public building is allowed •not• to have pull alarms, but I suppose I haven’t checked in a while. -

@inthehands a lot of hotels require a key card to even get to the front desk, or you need to ring a bell when you are a late arrival.

There are probably also members of the public who happen to be staying in those hotels, and who might genuinely think they smell smoke in the middle of the night... -

@inthehands
speculating based on limited knowledge not from personal experience but from what i learned in school as an electrician: in some buildings the pull station doesn't necessarily immediately set of an alarm, it sets off a five minute timer for maintenance to investigate if there's a fire or not and to disable the pull station, and if they don't then the alarm goes off after the five minutes. could be enough to deal with false alarms -
