Is this the same school that's been getting caught in crossfire between protesters and the ICE offices literally next door?

It seems like ICE was determined to put their offices in all the worst possible locations. Like, they had to know there would be protests, right?

In Rhode Island they put it between a social services office and a taqueria.

This shit had to be intentional, to inflict the most fear.

You know what they call someone who uses fear to deliver a political message? A fucking terrorist.

    The republicans don’t just fuck children, they also fuck up children.

    I heard somewhere recently that tear gas can cause impotence. If that's true, it's even more fucked to do that near a school.

    Edit: Yup, there's a link between the two

    So it might even be a eugenics thing?

    No, that would obviously require these guys believe in science, let alone in the concept of impotence not being the woman's fault

    The only ones terrorizing Chicago is ICE.

    Maria Heavener had opened the windows of her first-grade classroom to let in the unusually warm October breeze when the sound of helicopters, sirens, and a flood of notifications compelled her to slam them shut. During a raid on a nearby grocery store, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents had hurled tear gas canisters into a parking lot across the street from Chicago’s Funston Elementary School, spreading a thick, choking smog toward the building while class was in session.

    Every time, from now until the end of time, that someone tells me the Democratic leadership is “just as bad” I’m going to remind them who tear gassed a bunch of elementary school students.

    Technically still a step up from where we were with republicans 60 years ago. Kent state is a high bar.

    Low bar. Kent State is a low bar. Not openly murdering students protesting them is a low bar that so far the trump admin is managing to jump.

    But I do wonder how many students have been kidnapped and died while ICE calls us terrorists for having the gall to be angry that they're terrorizing our country.

    I repeatedly ask how many Venezuelans that Kamala has murdered.

    The tankies-in-disguise really don't like being confronted with simple facts.

    You talking about that lady who spent half her campaign courting the approval of Dick Cheney and demanding that we send more munitions to slaughter innocent children in Gaza, and in doing so cleared a path to victory for Trump to have a second term?

    These people being monsters doesn't translate into Democrats being the "good guys" or entitled to power. They've both been at the helm this entire time as our country has fallen into a dystopian nightmare and they both share the blame.

    Wow ICE has made a place of peace and learning into a hostile work environment. I wouldn't go back to that school to work ever again. The trump administration is making peaceful places of work and education into hellish landscapes of gas and terror.

    ICE could learn something from the Troubles in Ireland, the police there learned the hard way that tear gas used indiscriminately has a tendency to create more ill will with the population you’re wanting to win over

    I can never tell if a headline is the Onion or not anymore.
