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

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 9 hours ago

they were pepper sprayed by ICE, im betting if they dint things wouldve been different.

[–] pfunk1978@lemmy.world 16 points 15 hours ago

Tbh, if there's one thing that CPD won't ever do is help a person in trouble.

[–] lowleekun@ani.social 18 points 17 hours ago

They earned this round of donuts.

Always remember: A cop that's eating, can't give a beating

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.

Have you no sympathy for those pathetic flag pissing traitors?

I also strongly dislike Nazis.

[–] modus@lemmy.world 13 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

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?

[–] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

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.

[–] modus@lemmy.world 2 points 16 hours ago

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.

Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin reported that Chicago officers were instructed not to respond to the U.S. Border Patrol's calls for help in another incident where a vehicle was rammed and a person was shot.

"Multiple law enforcement sources confirm to @FoxNews that Chicago police officers were instructed by their Chief of Patrol to NOT respond to Border Patrol agents call for help yesterday after they were reportedly surrounded by a large crowd of protesters following a ramming incident & shooting of an armed woman," Melugin reported on X.

That last paragraph, from a FOX News correspondent, makes it sound like it was some ad hoc decision. It was not. Illinois does not permit any state, county, or local law enforcement to assist federal agents with their federal enforcement objectives.

ICE agents were in the middle of doing federal enforcement work. Crowd control is on them.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 14 points 22 hours ago

Never happened. The source is Fox News, the tentpole of the Conservative Propaganda Machine, and they lie 100% of the time. We are under no obligation to believe a single word that comes out of Fox News, in fact, I am inclined to believe the exact opposite.

Kat Abughazaleh is asking people to attend a protest this Friday 10/10 at 9:30 a.m. at the ICE headquarters at 1930 Beach Street, Broadview, IL

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!

[–] pepperjacques@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 hours ago

I can't stand ~~Illinois~~ Nazis.

[–] Melvin_Ferd@lemmy.world 29 points 1 day ago

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

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 37 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Not saying I'm a fan of the police, but I think they made a good call this time.

..... this time.

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 25 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

It's Illinois state law that they're prohibited from assisting federal agents in doing federal agent stuff.

So for once the cops were actually following the law.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 11 points 22 hours ago

"Gee guys, we'd love to help you abuse the rights of citizens, it's kind of our favorite thing, but our hands are tied here. I'm sure you understand."

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 6 points 22 hours ago

That's shocking.

[–] FrostyTheDoo@lemmy.world 8 points 23 hours ago

They are simply reading the room and making a calculated choice. The public needs to continue putting the pressure on, they are cracking at the local level first.

On Sunday, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem told Fox News that Chicago was a "war zone" where her agents were not welcome to use restrooms.

Good. They should not feel welcome ANYWHERE they go; no comfort, no peace, to the enemy.

[–] Typhoon@lemmy.ca 54 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Noem: It's a war zone out there! It's crazy!

Them: What do you mean? People are shooting at each other? Bodies in the streets?

Noem: They won't let us pee in their restrooms!

[–] IphtashuFitz@lemmy.world 31 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well did the ICE agents submit to gender checks first, to make sure they’re using the correct restroom? A copy of their birth certificate should suffice.

[–] Hozerkiller@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Not good enough we also have to do a manual inspection. Michael testicletickler is going to be doing the inspections. Dont let the name worry you though, he doesn't tickle testicles only fingers buttholes.

[–] AlecSadler@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'd add that they should be identified and not welcome anywhere ever.

Something, something - Third Amendment?

I’m not an American - but I’m pretty sure the 3rd basically means that they can (and should) be refused service freely by anyone and everyone who wants to?

[–] Ithral@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 1 day ago (2 children)

No, the 3rd amendment means your house/apt can't be turned into a barracks.

Refusing service is just how things are, no specific amendment

Do not capitulate, make them make you.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 5 points 22 hours ago

Never surrender in advance, never respond to their threats and/or intimidation, force them to go to court, force them to justify their behavior to a judge.

Make them pay dearly for every step they take.

"Invading paramilitary force not being suitably supported by the the locals of the place being invaded" says leader of paramilitary force in an interview on her Party's Propaganda Channel.

[–] WindyRebel@lemmy.world 119 points 1 day ago

She’s not wrong. It’s just that her agents are causing the war part.
