One resident told me his parents were in his backyard and got gassed as the wind blew it their direction.

I saw terrified small children out, asking why ICE was there and why Donald Trump is doing this.

Angry neighbors wondered aloud how the “Nazis, the literal Gestapo” were outside their homes.

Saturday morning in Chicago.

People are fucking pissed. You can intellectually know what’s happening, see the videos, and still be traumatized and shocked when it comes to your block, no matter what community you live in.
Everything about this is so performative and unnecessary. I cannot believe these G.I. Joe motherfuckers get off on this shit.
(from the inbox) Less than an hour later this morning, just before 10:30 at Roscoe and Harding, feds again released gas as they were driving away, unobstructed, from a relatively small number of neighbors.

Had 2 ICE raids here, yesterday was right next door. They grabbed some guys that where hard workers, destroyed lives and haunting kids. Albany Park Chicago has been such a tightknit community of happy families for years, and now to see it terrorized by outsiders is galvanizing. Now we are cementing

If you can make it to Rush Hospital in Aurora, IL, an ICE patroller got pulled out of her car, assaulted and pepper sprayed by agents. She's in the hospital and nobody except ICE is allowed to see her.

There's a call to assemble and demand ICE leave the hospital, and let her husband in to see her.

This is a safe Chicago neighborhood. WTH is ICE doing there disturbing the peace with their military cosplay thuggery in a quiet neighborhood on a weekend?
Border patrol agents deployed tear gas on the 3700 block of North Kildare where residents say a landscape worker, a resident, and a woman on a bike were detained. Video from a resident.

Portland resists with whimsical improv theater, Chicago resists by screaming at weird jagoffs that don’t belong in the neighborhood. Every city brings its own strengths to the fight
The energy we need is this suburban dad standing out in the street -- barefoot with Blackhawks pajama pants on -- screaming at the masked goons to get the fuck out of their neighborhood.

Tear gassing random residential streets is just absolutely psychotic behavior.

"Community organizer Teresa Magaña said the whistles are “making a huge difference.”

If ICE is nearby, it instructs people to blow three short bursts. If they’re actively detaining someone, users should sound the alarm by blowing one long, continuous whistle."

ICE is beating U.S. citizens and using tear gas in my otherwise quiet Chicago neighborhood without cause

It's been a horrible day in Chicago today with ICE ramping up activities seemingly everywhere. They even abducted a US citizen night manager of a comedy club. Lots of "enforcement" around elementary schools. It's bad.
