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.
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!
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.
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.
🏳️⚧️: First time?
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?
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
I'd add that they should be identified and not welcome anywhere ever.
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.
"Shit your pants, Nazi!"
Have you no sympathy for those pathetic flag pissing traitors?
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?
Finally cops standing there doing nothing works in our favor. I never thought I'd see the day.
they were pepper sprayed by ICE, im betting if they dint things wouldve been different.
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.
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.
Kristi Noem told Fox News that Chicago was a "war zone" where her agents were not welcome to use restrooms.
:|
She’s not wrong. It’s just that her agents are causing the war part.
Now ice can feel the full Trans Experience ™️
"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.
Oh no! Those antifa monsters, disallowing an entire class of people from using the bathroom!
Noem can dig a pit and use it as a latrine like she did for her goats,horses, and Dog, if you catch my drift.
Do you think these people ever have an occasional moment when they think to themselves "I sound literally insane"?
Tbh, if there's one thing that CPD won't ever do is help a person in trouble.
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
They earned this round of donuts.
Always remember: A cop that's eating, can't give a beating
Not saying I'm a fan of the police, but I think they made a good call this time.
..... this time.
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.
"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."
Huh, I guess cops arnt always shitty.
Almost every time like the one we are currently living in involves police/military people having to decide where their loyalties lie. Sometimes it's with the people, sometimes it's with the regime. Very often it is different between different agencies (with the lowest-level ones tending to side with the people).
The US is such a patchwork (both organizationally and on in individual level for each cop) that I think there will be a big and chaotic variety. It could range from sheriff's departments headed by Trump-loyal sheriffs who are willing to go to war with city agencies who are trying to protect their people, all the way over to city cops who eventually start actively defending their cities against the feds who are trying to do obviously illegal things there. That last one hasn't happened yet but I think it may be right around the corner. Things are changing. Those city workers telling Kristi Noem to get fucked from being allowed to pee in Broadview City Hall, that stuff doesn't happen in a vacuum.
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
ICE pepper sprayed cops and protestors alike
Til cpd are less shitty than LAPD.
Cops don't want anyone above them interfering with their ~~city~~ racket.
Cops are weird, it's a mix of 'this our turf, you wanted to come in here so FAFO', laziness, a vague sense of duty directed at ???, and some eclectic variety of incoherent personal politics that separates the feds into the camp of 'other' at least temporarily.
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
“If anyone is gonna torment the people here, it’s gonna be us!”
That's the Chicago way.
