      They just don’t care.

      ICE called for backup once because of protestors, cops if ored them, so they shot someone in a car because there was traffic, rammed another car in traffic, and then detained at least one US citizen.

      Cops want no part of it, it doesn’t mean they’re out their protecting citizens from ICE, they’re likely laughing about it.

      They can 100% still be shitty

    I liked the side article on how sad it is ice agents are being turned away at restaurants and they are not even allowed to use the restroom.

      After a hard days’ work they just want to kick back at their local taquiera and enjoy a few frosty cervezas. What’s the problem?

        I would not be surprised to learn that ICE hires undocumented immigrants and that that’s one of the reasons they go around masked. It would not exactly be unprecedented – many of the overseers on Southern cotton plantations were themselves slaves.

          Very plausible. Many unfortunate souls find themselves in inescapable situations like that. If the option is Alligator Auschwitz or don a swastika and neck gaiter, most will choose the latter.

    Need an immediate response lefty team. Show up for these things and record and document everything with the intention that if government ever course corrects, there is now some record that might be able to identify these ICE agents and have justice served. They 100% are covering their face so that there’s no way to charge them if courts ever try for any violations

    Finally cops standing there doing nothing works in our favor. I never thought I’d see the day.

    Time for the racist thug losers to drag their own portable shitters with them. The Blues Brothers and Chicago. The scene when Joliet Jake and Elwood drive through the fucking Nazis on the bridge. Stay Tough Chicago!
