The incident unfolded Saturday in Chicago’s Old Irving Park neighborhood, where residents say federal agents disrupted a children’s Halloween parade
Shocking video shows a chaotic scene on a quiet Chicago street as Border Patrol agents in tactical gear drag a 67-year-old man from his car while children in Halloween costumes look on in horror.
According to his running club, the man, who is a U.S. citizen, was returning from a team run when agents pulled him out of his vehicle, tackled him to the ground and kneeled on top of him, allegedly breaking six ribs and causing internal bleeding.
The incident unfolded Saturday in the city’s Old Irving Park neighborhood, where residents say the agents disrupted a children’s Halloween parade amid an immigration enforcement operation.
If America saw what America was doing to America, then America would invade America to liberate America.
They know. They don’t care. They believe the “our country has been flooded with violent criminal illegal aliens” bullshit so when they see people being brutalized, they immediately think, “oh well they must deserve it. I have nothing to worry about because I don’t deserve it.”
First they came for the illegal immigrants and I did not speak out because I was not an illegal immigrant… welcome to the poem, you’re living in it and just like the poem, eventually there will be no one to speak out for you.
Yeah. Try explaining that to MAGA boomers
I do try. Unfortunately, trying is the best I’ve got. I’m not pretending I have a magic wand. But I’ll keep trying. It’s better than not trying.
Too much Faux Nooz.
If those kids could read they would be very upset about this
We do have lots of natural resources…
Has anyone checked Fort Knox lately?
ICE = Nazis.
These guys are just the SS at this point.
And they should be dealt with as such.
So what sort of low risk tactics can we start advising for people in areas where ICE is active? As much as we all want them shot on sight, I think a lot more people are willing to engage them in ways that they are less likely to be arrested and have their lives ruined for.
Things like snipping tire stems, or paint splashing windshields, are still probably going to get you in trouble, but you have a larger chance of getting away than directly assaulting an ICE agent. But that risk will still deter lots of people.
I want the Internet tacticians to brainstorm something that my 60’s white mom might be willing to do if she got the chance. Phoney reports maybe? Bad driving and eating a ticket? What can we come up with besides holding signs and recording for social media?
Rape whistles.
People have already been using them. As soon as ICE shows up, you start blowing the rape whistle and you don’t stop until they’re gone. This alerts anyone with brown skin to get out of the area and it also draws a crowd. And we’ve seen the videos where these fascist cowards run as soon as the crowd gets too big.

I want everyone reading this to understand how surreal it is to have to type this sentence. It’s a condemnation of how far we’ve fallen as a nation.
Pebble/lentil in tire stem if vehicle unattended.
it’s what these guys were doing to protest large vehicles : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyre_Extinguishers
for the braver people, follow the French for inspiration. They were cementing cinder blocks in the road
I’m gonna get a slingshot, so i can dent door panels and shatter windows/windshields from a good distance away without the possibility of it being considered lethal force
I also want to dent cybertrucks
They will still charge you with attempted murder and terrorism if you’re caught doing that, they’ve charged people worse for less. They have been detaining people and making up charges against even the most passive peaceful activists.
Yeah I know, but with the standoff out provides, it could either be used from concealment or just give enough time to outrun them, which is not particularly difficult
It’s also got no report so there is no indication of where it was fired from
Bingo. What bush did that rock come from? Not a clue, but that’s $2000 in glass and/or body work to repair

I have one of these that I like very much. Takes practice to be able to hit the broad side of a barn, or I may just be inept… Maybe with a wrist brace it’s easier but those are $100+.
Edit: I misspoke, here is one for $50

What can be done with that foul smelling fart spray?
ICES
Things banned in #LandoftheFree:
- Drones (because you must be a CCP Spy or Mexican Cartel member)
- Radios (because only drug cartels use them)
- Building electronics gadgets with complex wiring (because Mrs. Karen says she saw an “illegal” with a “bomb”)
- Perfume (because its definitely drugs)
- 1st amendment (because bald JD Vance = terrorism)
- Excercising (because running = crime)
Did I miss anything?
[Edit:
- Doing Algebra on a plane (remember that?)
- Speaking a non-English language (must be a spy talking to their handler)
- Hand gestures and sign language (must be gang signs)
- Tattoos (must be MS-13)

Fyi, I would not have dared to make this Lemmy account if I weren’t a US Citizen, but even so, I still wonder when gestapo comes to my door, given how things are going.
If my account ever becomes inactive, either I forgot the password, or I’m in Gitmo.
For those who only know about Chicago from the news:
Old Irving Park is a nice, mostly residential historic neighborhood on the northwest side. It’s not the nicest or fanciest (those are more toward the lake) but it’s definitely on the upper end. It’s a neighborhood someone in a high rise might move to when you have a family.
Bonus fact: Chicagoans mostly stick to normal pizza. Deep dish is for tourists.
ICEIS
So. Where are the Bikers? Seriously. What the fuck happened to bikers looking after their community?
They went maga i guess ?
that’s a lot of taxpayer money going to this guy’s medical expenses and compensation for suffering
Oh you sweet summer child.
As if that claim for damages won’t be denied .
Pepper spray is cheap and effective folks. I’d advise protecting yourself out there.

All the Italian plumbers out there know exactly where Greg Bovino is going to be at 5:45pm.
Just sayin’.
Evil
I hate the “allegedly” part.
Trump is going to get his armed resistance one way or another I guess.
File a massive lawsuit.
