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.
ICE = Nazis.
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.
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.
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

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

Pepper spray is cheap and effective folks. I’d advise protecting yourself out there.
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.
Trump is going to get his armed resistance one way or another 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 .
File a massive lawsuit.

All the Italian plumbers out there know exactly where Greg Bovino is going to be at 5:45pm.
Just sayin’.
