'It was heartbreaking': Naked zip-tied children dragged from homes in 'surreal' ICE raid

[Wild Bill Kelsoe]

‘Just hours after President Donald Trump said U.S. soldiers should use America's cities as “training grounds,” federal law enforcement officials on Tuesday night descended upon an apartment complex in Chicago where witnesses say they broke down residents’ doors, smashed furniture and belongings, and dragged dozens of them — including children — into U-Haul vans.

Local resident Rodrick Johnson, who lives in the building raided by Immigration and Customers Enforcement (ICE) agents, told the Chicago Sun-Times that federal officials broke down his door, put him in zip ties, and kept him detained outside the building for three hours before letting him go.

“I asked [agents] why they were holding me if I was an American citizen, and they said I had to wait until they looked me up,” he told the paper. “I asked if they had a warrant, and I asked for a lawyer. They never brought one.”’

Yes, this is what Trump voters voted for: fear, intimidation, lawless, thuggish authoritarianism, the rights of all persons – including US citizens – violated.

No photos?

are you going to step up or are you a coat holder?...

If I was I certainly wouldn't talk about it on the internet.

 

[Crepitus]

Unfortunately I think that's what they're counting on.

And you may be right. The whole point may be to provoke a confrotation that will give tRump and excuse to declare martial law.

This is the type of Leftist violent rhetoric that got Charlie Kirk assassinated.

Don't be stupider than you have to be, kid. I didn't encourage violence.

Don't be stupider than you have to be, kid. I didn't encourage violence.

Your rhetoric is about people attacking federal agents in the performance of their duties.
That kind of reckless hate leads to violence as we have seen with the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the attempts on Trump's life. Act your age.

People are going to have to start hiding in hidden rooms in their houses.

Whatever is happening you Progressives caused this. And if you think ICE is not good, think the next time you use the central government police apparatus on common citizens when you come to power again.

I'm against an authoritarian government violating the people's rights. Why do you support this is the question.

so you are the coat holder.....got it....

The right for illegal aliens to stay in the US?

 

[pknopp]

The right for illegal aliens to stay in the US?

The right of American citizens to not be detained.

 

[DonGlock26]

The right of American citizens to not be detained.

You mean I don't have to wait for the TSA to question me at the airport? I can just board the jet?

 

[pknopp]

I'm against the entire TSA thing also.

 

[DonGlock26]

I'm against the entire TSA thing also.

So, people can just board planes without being detained, questioned, and scanned for weapons and explosives?

People can be questioned. I'm under no obligation to answer. Why do you think our rights should be null and void simply because we are going to get on an airplane?

 

[justoffal]

This is the type of thing that makes the right all giddy...defenseless kids being abused. First it was Trump’s buddy Epstein...now it’s ICE doing it to strangers.

Hold your horses.... You have no idea whether or not the story you read is factual, or whether or not it has been lavishly embellished for political ends.
So far I don't see any videos.... Where are all these nosy people with their cell phones?

And the airline is under no obligation to let you on board if you decide not to cooperate.

Its not the airline.

FFS, Rawstory? WTF sources that shit? Rhetorical question.

I see your fellow Trumpsters were very quick to second your "rhetorical question" assumption.

In fact, the story is true.

It is widely reported. Yet another example of ICE thuggary. Which is to be expected from an Administration whose core value and message is racism. And who has vastly expanded the payroll of ICE, handed out no bid contracts to their friends in the private prison system, lowered the hiring standards for ICE and FBI agents, abandoned any pretence of due process, and goes around with face masks on to hide who is doing these things.

This is all straight out of the Nazi playbook.

You Trumpsters try and dance past it by saying the claims of Trumpian facism (as well as your collective embrace of it) is "tired" and "overused".

And when ICE, the FBI and the Trump henchmen stop using these tactics, and threatening others (like the press, education, science etc), then we will stop talking about their facist tactics.
