A driver fired shots at Customs and Border Patrol agents in Chicago’s Little Village neighborhood on Saturday, according to the Department of Homeland Security.
DHS said the border patrol agents were “conducting immigration enforcement operations” near 26th Street and Kedzie Avenue when a man driving a black Jeep fired shots.
DHS also said people nearby threw a paint can and bricks at the agents’ vehicles.
If not Nazis, then why Nazi shaped?
“Customs and Border Patrol”.
You mean ICE? Someone took shots at ICE while they were in the middle of a randomized deportation?
CBP is actually even worse than ICE. They’re a lot more militarized. That Chicago apartment building that was raided with an Apache helicopter, with little kids being put into handcuffs, that was actually CBP.
CBP’s operation zone is ridiculous too. They’re “border patrol” but they can work deep into the country.
They are limited to 100 miles from the border, but “the border” counts the shoreline, so in reality 2/3 of the population is in that zone.
I’ve heard that courts have ruled that airports count as “the border” too. So anywhere within 100 miles of an airport. So basically anywhere in the country.
You heard incorrectly. Every source I’ve seen did not include airports.
Don’t they also count international airports as “the border?” Which changes that number to something like 99.9% of the population.
Yes yes it does
That doesn’t include airports which add any major city not in that red line.
Except the Great Lakes are mostly part of America. Lake Michigan is completely inside The United States, so Illinois is nowhere near the Canadian border.
Chicago isn’t a border city, it’s a coastal city.
O’Hare is a national hub. Meaning it’s an entry point to the US, so technically a “border”.
now do all of the major rivers connected to the ocean
You misspelled “abduction”
Surprisingly, actually two different agencies. You have CBP (Customs and Border Patrol) which do - customs and border patrol, and ICE (Migration and customs enforcement) which do - mostly immigration stuff.
I also believe that customs and border patrol are one of the few agencies that can legally ID any citizen without pretext.
I could be mistaken though.
I doubt it’s legal, but SCOTUS would say it is.
DHS also said people nearby threw a paint can and bricks at the agents’ vehicles
Sounds like they might not be wanted or something
Could the mythological good guy with a gun be real?
Big if true
Is there proof of this outside of their words it happened? I don’t believe just their claim alone. They have every reason to lie and not much in the way of morals to refrain.
Someone must have mistaken them for criminals.
Is it a mistake if you accidentally wind up at the truth?
If someone says this happened, just say “fake news”.
and “crisis actors”
A black Jeep? I saw them, they were driving in a blue BMW down to the harbor. Yes, a green Toyota, why do you ask?
They and ice lie a lot. Every word a lot.
crisis actors making up fake stories
whiny little terrorists begging for attention
Was it a group of well identified law officers with a warrant and identification or a gang of heavily armed, masked, and aggressive people trying abduct someone?
These days we only see the second group and they should be treated as the criminals they’re acting like.
nothing stops things from happening quite as well as posting the “it’s happening” meme….
Oh no. Anyway.
If you know anything about who did this, no you fucking don’t.
Fake news from fake agents. Was anyone else surprised?
Good.
