Greg Bovino, Kristi Noem, and DHS need to answer for their unchecked attacks on Chicago residents.

ICE is an out-of-control danger to our peaceful communities.

The images from the Sun-Times today speak for themselves.

Last night in the campground where I am camp host, I had to put out two unattended campfires 🔥. Winds were gusting to 30 mph. The rangers are getting furloughed on October 18th. Don’t be stupid. Protect our National Parks by staying out of them until the shutdown is over. Or volunteer to help.

That does horrible things to a community, to people's ability to function. There are families who haven't left their homes in weeks, relying on networks of trust to bring them essentials. Kids staying home from school, fear about every unknown car on the block. And those fears are not unfounded.

To a somewhat lesser extent, the same is true of several other areas. Cicero has seen heavy ICE activity similar to Sunday in Rogers Park about twice a week lately. Same for the southeast side, same for southwest suburbs like Burbank and Bridgeview, same for Hammond and Whiting across the border.

I'm in BotY, Brighton Park, Gage Park, or Englewood a couple times a week. ICE and CBP have been so ever-present there that I have run into multi-vehicle phalanxes of masked agents completely at random on two different occasions in the last three weeks. 47th is a ghost town compared to spring.

It's horrible no matter where it happens, and organizers + informal community safety networks have worked very hard to interrupt it despite deep disadvantage against state violence and fragmentary info.

Consider how scared and burnt out folks are in Back of the Yards after wave upon wave of it.

Rogers Park and surrounding neighborhoods were hit hard by immigration enforcement activity over the weekend.

There's no competition here, but I want to name that the same heavy, violent, fast-moving abduction pattern has invaded the southwest side about three times a week for over a month now.
