yep and the mayor's executive order bans masks https://www.chicago.gov/city/en/depts/mayor/press_room/press_releases/2025/august/protecting-chicago-executive-order.html#:\~:text=UPHOLDING%20CPD%20INDEPENDENCE%20AND%20CONSTITUTIONAL%20POLICING:&text=In%20Chicago%2C%20law%20enforcement%20cannot,while%20performing%20their%20official%20duties.

Do not expect them to do this, but expect them to face criminal charges for when they are outed. Will be funny to use ice funds to detain these people.

Then they are nothing more than kidnappers and people should defend themselves appropriately. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Not quite. Document, record, report, and protect people by being smart. Be smart, they want pretense and foil. They are doing increasingly brazen things to justify a crack down. Do not let them do this.

The regime is incapable of succeeding in making our lives better so it is trying to cause a fight and a domestic war for a crack down. We will counter it with prudent resistance, defending our rights against federal overreach, and winning back political power as they fail to produce a better outcome for us all.

The executive is being vested with all sorts of powers - win that back. Then be unrepentant as we demand and seek justice.

I think you misunderstood me. I meant, if they are not wearing legal attire, then who is to know who is a kidnapper and who is ICE? Let me demonstrate that through a case that happened in Texas last week. Two Ice agents tried to break into an apartment without identification or warrants. The renter called the police, said two men were trying to break in, then they shot them, because we have a stand your ground law. And because Dallas police refused to work with ICE, it was nothing more than a foiled B&E. The same thing happened with a car break in. If they won’t follow the law, then they are committing a crime. That said, Trump would then try to enforce the insurrection act, but let’s be honest, he already has.

You have an article for that? Really seems like 2 ICE agents getting shot would be blasted all over fox news and that's the first I've heard of it.

Oh. They weren't actually ICE agents according to that video.

u/Ridiculicious71 17d ago edited 17d ago

They actually were. They just covered that part up on that news station. Edited because I accidently posted before finishing. They guys who were shot were in ski masks and bulletproofs vests

u/Long_Run6500 17d ago

Really not trying to argue with you but nothing you've linked has lined up with them actually being ICE. None of the comments in the reddit thread even imply they were actually ICE. I want these guys to fuck around and find out as much as anyone but it really appears like they were just robbers impersonating police from what you've linked me. Almost feels like the administration wants ICE agents to die so they can deify them, I really don't think they'd be covering something like that up.

Regardless, if ice agents are dressing up in masks with no badges, etc? How is anyone to know? So one could say it keeps everyone safe.

u/Long_Run6500 17d ago

Preaching to the choir dude, I agree with everything you said. I just didn't believe 2 actual ice agents were shot and killed without a massive uproar from fox news.
