In reply to the discussion: ICE deployed tear gas on crowded public street--because they were upset being stuck in Chicago traffic. [View all]paleotn
(21,750 posts)20. One or more ICE thugs are going to get their ass shot.

This is getting insane, it shows what happens when a governmental organization goes nuts because there's no consequences

ICE smashes a window in on top of a newborn baby. The Trump regime are lawless criminals terrorizing the population.

I keep wondering how much lower ICE can get, and they will always have their shovels out
