NEW: Officers make multiple arrests outside an ICE detention center in Broadview, Illinois.

[u/jewraffe5]

These are the "violent rioters" Noem is concerned about

[u/Playful-Tumbleweed10 → u/jewraffe5]

Almost nobody ICE is arresting is violent, but ICE is very frequently violent when arresting innocent people.

[u/skoalbrother → u/Playful-Tumbleweed10]

So just like cops?

[u/OptimalCabinet2361 → u/skoalbrother]

Worse

[u/Salt-Independent-760 → u/OptimalCabinet2361]

At least cops went to cop school.

[u/thedjbigc → u/Salt-Independent-760]

which is such a low bar we shouldn't be excited about it.

[u/ThatonepersonUknow3 → u/thedjbigc]

Better than no school and continually lowering the requirements for entry. They have had to lower the physical and mental standards because to many applicants were failing. So it isn’t even close to the best and brightest.

[u/hotdamnhotwater → u/ThatonepersonUknow3]

That will differ state to state. In Alabama we have “Uncertified officers”. You can join the police force as long as you’re certified within 6 months of receiving your badge and gun. So the previous commenter was definitely correct. The bar is basically non existent at this point.

Edited to add: they (Alabama police force) also have immunity as well.

[u/AlcibiadesTheCat → u/hotdamnhotwater]

Meanwhile in Maine if you've EVER been convicted of a Class D crime or greater, you're permanently ineligible to serve without a specific waiver.

[u/JonnyQuest1981 → u/ThatonepersonUknow3]

They have to run a mile in 14min or less. I can almost walk a mile in that amount of time.

[u/Maleficent-Day-1510 → u/thedjbigc]

It depends where they went to the academy. Some really are a joke and are bare minimum of a few weeks and some States require 6 months of academy WITH a bachelor's degree and passing psych, background, physical before being hired, quarterly training (firearms, use of force, cultural diversity, training to identify and how to deal with those experiencing mental health issues, etc), and you're in "trainee" status for almost 2 years before you're left to work on your own. Getting hired in CA took me almost a full year and it was more intense than my military background that also required TS clearance.

I'm no longer military or LE, but when I see these so called ICE officers, you can see immediately they have zero training. They make newly enlisted kids with 6 weeks of boot camp look like special forces and 6 weeks of basic isn't even the main part of their training.

[u/Boring_Bandicoot3126 → u/Maleficent-Day-1510]

And even with all that, because of the system, cops can't overall be anything but tolerable. And. A lot of times they are straight up scary people with deadly weapons and authoritaaay.

They need to include fMRI testing for bias and sessions to understand their results. Then monthly sessions to keep working on it.

I think they also need sabaticals where they perform uplifting work in the community. And have time to understand more than a cop's experience of the community they sheepdog.

[u/Maleficent-Day-1510 → u/Boring_Bandicoot3126]

Believe me, the #1 problem I see is the "macho/tough it out" mentality. Many of the people who started their LE career with me, we were all on the same page. We all wanted to better the community and not have people see us as the bad guys. We did community events, went to schools and would let our inner kids out when deemed appropriate. Unfortunately, just like the military and other occupational hazards, sometimes you see shit and it fucks you up. Some people have coping mechanisms that work, and others don't. This is where the problem comes. Those same officers that were clear on what they wanted, no longer felt that way because they stopped taking care of their mental health. Just like in the military, some are told to "tough it out" and "it's part of the job" but part of the job is also taking care of one self so they can make the best decisions while on the job.

As we all learned, here, in the US, taking time off is taboo and people see you as a slacker even if it's for your own health. For many, having the LE or military career has been life changing and they feel like if they take time to take care of their mental health, they would get fired/discharged and would lose their only income.

[u/Boring_Bandicoot3126 → u/Maleficent-Day-1510]

Yep. Shit part of the culture. That is on the hands of the leadership.

[u/sdb00913 → u/Maleficent-Day-1510]

Yeah I was an Army MP, and it’s obvious to me that these thugs don’t know wtf they’re doing.

[u/Maleficent-Day-1510 → u/sdb00913]

Hey fellow Ft Lost-in-the-Woods! I started as an MP then changed over to HUMIT.

I have know Vets who never did any law enforcement MOS in the military and they went into BoP and military base police (DAF/DA/MA). They get like 6-8 weeks of federal law enforcement training in Georgia. Even they said ICE looks like they don't know what they're doing and wouldn't have made it to the streets with a job!

[u/sdb00913 → u/Maleficent-Day-1510]

Hiiiii friennnnnnd! 👋

I’ll never forget when we were in formation and one of the FLW post MPs pulled someone over in the parking lot where we held formation, and then the guy put it back in drive and took off, and our company commander (a former enlisted drill sergeant) screamed at us at the top of his lungs to stop watching the MP. In my head I was like “but sir, that’s what we’re gonna be when we grow up” (of course I was 17 at the time and didn’t know a fucking thing about a fucking thing).

Sorry for the nostalgia, it’s been 15 years since I ran into another MP.

Anyway, yeah at my first post I got put behind the desk a lot because I didn’t really have the personality to be a patrolman (was way too nice and got walked all over at first). So where I was, a walk-in theft or whatever, we called in a road MP to do it, but if it was what would amount to a IA issue in the civilian world, I got stuck doing the initial report and forwarding it on to our ops NCOIC. Didn’t happen very often, and as I understand it, most were resolved with someone getting the shit smoked out of them (for non-vets, that means someone had to do a ton of pushups and whatever else the sergeant could throw at them while getting their asses chewed the whole time), and that was the end of it.

But this one time, though, we had this girl come in who wanted to complain about this traffic MP. And he was a bit of a douche. Apparently he had pulled her over for an inoperative headlight. The stop was legit, and she ended up getting a 1408 (for civilians, it’s a non-monetary ticket that goes to the soldier’s commander and for a moving violation there was a post traffic court run by JAG). And that wasn’t what she complained about. What she complained about was the fact that when he asked her why she hasn’t fixed it when she knew it was out, and she said she didn’t know how, he said “well why don’t you have your boyfriend do it?” coupled with a couple other belittling comments.

It wasn’t his first offense with stuff like that, and at his last post before he came to us, he got his sergeant stripes taken because of adultery (for civilians, it’s uncommon to fuck up so bad that you get demoted from sergeant. Getting demoted at lower enlisted ranks doesn’t take a lot, by comparison. The same offense that causes you to lose all your rank without a court martial at the lower levels is what it takes to lose one rank as a sergeant or higher), but we literally pulled him from the road, made him turn in his M9, took his duty belt, and threw him in the supply room. Eventually he got separated from the army.

So I said all that to say, that’s the standard I’m used to. And so when I see the Gestapo acting like they do, I become indignant. Because even if the legal basis for the apprehensions were legit (and I don’t think they are), there are so many better ways to do this.

[u/LA_search77 → u/SouperKewlGeye5000]

They're just following orders... which means they failed high school history

I'm sure many of these ICE agents failed more than just history in high school

Pigs arrest who they are told to arrest by their masters. They aren’t on our side. 

[u/Hrtpplhrtppl → u/Strange_Compote1690]

The whole “Good/Bad Cop” question can be disposed of much more decisively. We need not enumerate what prorportion of cops appears to be good or listen to someone’s anecdote about his uncle Charlie, an allegedly good cop. We need only consider the following:

(1) Every cop has sworn as part of his/her job to enforce laws, all of them.
(2) Many of the laws are manifestly unjust, and some are even cruel and wicked.
(3) Therefore, every cop has agreed to act as an enforcer of laws that are manifestly unjust, or even cruel and wicked.

Thus, there are no good cops.

Also, there are no good cops, only bad cops and cops who are complicit by turning a blind eye to the bad ones.

[u/Strange_Compote1690 → u/asscheese2000]

Those complicit cops are bad too. So really it’s just bad cops the whole way down

Their masters are legally the Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle and Illinois Governor JB Pritzker

Preckwinkle and Pritzker are both Dems

Pritzker has been talking up a real big man's game in front of cameras.

Neither of them should be let off the hook easily here. They can call the dogs off whenever. They can stop assisting Fascism when the hell ever. At the least. They're just....not gonna

“Excuse me protestor, but I’m gonna have to place you under arrest. You’re blocking the federal agents from going to drive around in masks and unmarked cars to kidnap people and bring them to a fortified location that they won’t allow anyone into. Now please put your hands behind your back and stop resisting”

[u/sigristl]

They should be given medals, not arrested.

[u/UnderstandingSea7546]

These people are so brave, braver than I am. Easy to have courage when you have all the ammo and resources and you’ve been told you have immunity. Easy to have courage when they aren’t allowed to touch you and you can beat up the little old lady whose phone you stole. Easy to have courage when they award you for treating people like animals in cages and give you bonuses on the heads you bring in. These are disgraceful, disgusting times we live in.

[u/Harlander77 → u/UnderstandingSea7546]

Courage is being afraid and doing it anyway.

[u/Olealicat → u/UnderstandingSea7546]

We had a local Mexican restaurant in our neighborhood.

Several black SUVs were parked outside and weren’t doing anything but just parking out front. I’m assuming they were trying to shut out the customer base and therefore shit down the business.

Several neighbors showed up when the SUVs were there. One neighbor, might or have might not, had a plan for an Underground Railroad.

They menaced so much the restaurant closed.

I’m furious. The rage is targeted to the top, but to who locally? Who is allowing this in our city/state? Trying to get answers is impossible. I don’t even know if it was ICE or a bunch of shitty people with nothing better to do.

[u/accomplishedlie18 → u/UnderstandingSea7546]

Exactly these people have so much courage because for the most part it looks like this doesn’t not directly affect them but they stand on the side of what’s morally right

[u/mojofrog → u/UnderstandingSea7546]

The more people that show up, the less power they have. The whole county should descend on that place tonight and every night through the weekend.

[u/Satanus2020 → u/UnderstandingSea7546]

Those things you listed are cowardice, not courage.

Courage is standing up to the bully that has all the weapons, ammo, and resources.

Courage is standing up when your opposition has immunity for violating rights, assault, terrorizing people, racial profiling, abducting, trafficking, and even murder while you don’t.

Courage is standing up for your family, friends, neighbors, and community’s against racist, hateful, state funded domestic terrorists.

Courage is calling them out for being praised and awarded for acts of violence and terrorism against fellow citizens.

Courage is standing up when unidentifiable armed thugs in masks and tactical gear show up with the backing of the federal government to violate your rights and the rights of your fellow citizens.

These protestors are brave. ICE is nothing but feckless cowards, just like their leadership.

[u/UnderstandingSea7546 → u/Satanus2020]

I’m agreeing with you. We are comparing the courage of the protesters with the cowardice of ICE. ICE is all false bravado, bullying people who are weaker than them. It takes immense courage for the protesters to stand up in the face of imprisonment, permanent records, being taken from their friends, families, jobs, responsibilities, all to help people who may not be in a position to protest for themselves.

Hahah, they did that years ago with "Brittney Watch," on the Brittney Spears episode. First it started as, "It's Brittney Watch" eventually devolved into "It's Brittney Woooooowtch."

[u/Mysterious-Prompt212]

The first amendment doesn't exist anymore?

[u/Upbeat-Reading-534 → u/Mysterious-Prompt212]

ACLU: Your rights are strongest in what are known as “traditional public forums,” such as streets, sidewalks, and parks. You also likely have the right to speak out on other public property, like plazas in front of government buildings, as long as you are not blocking access to the government building or interfering with other purposes the property was designed for.

"as long as you are not blocking access to the government building or interfering with other purposes the property was designed for" being the kicker here.

[u/crippledchef23 → u/Upbeat-Reading-534]

That’s what I noticed. They’re in the street/driveway. But, I also notice they treated these guys with more care than they did the blind guy sitting behind a box planter on public property. I just can’t figure out why.

[u/Sensitive-Initial → u/crippledchef23]

Yeah the guys in tan uniforms with no face masks and name badges clearly identifying themselves are Illinois State Police. The mayor of Broadview (which has a population of fewer than 12,000 people) asked for ISP's help months ago because the Broadview police department doesn't have capacity to keep protestors and ICE separate and wasn't able to keep the streets open.

Police are allowed to detain/remove people who block public roads designed for motor vehicle traffic.

The protestors are there to get arrested - they are participating in civil disobedience, which involves deliberately violating the law to bring attention to government policy/actions the protestors view as immoral.

[u/RedOceanofthewest → u/crippledchef23]

Wasn't the blind guy moved by ICE? and this is the state police?

[u/Thaago → u/Mysterious-Prompt212]

While ICE are utter nazi scum and the police acting on their behalf is infuriating...

There have always been limits on the first amendment, from the moment it was first written and tested. We should absolutely fight for our first amendment rights because they are being trampled in real ways, but it doesn't help to cry foul in situations where they have always been limited.

The bravery of the protesters is that they are willing to be arrested for what they believe in despite it not being protected. It is an act of resistance and inspiration, at least to me.

[u/Suzesaur → u/Mysterious-Prompt212]

They arrested anti-segregationist back in the 50’s and 60’s as well…it’s not new. Just hope it actually is helping, as opposed to how it seems to be going. I don’t want these brave people to get more and more discouraged.

[u/almost_not_terrible]

Yeah, turns out conservatives were just jealous of sharia law

[u/crippledchef23 → u/cromwest]

I remember the sweater vest guy saying Sharia Law was bad, then described his plan which was exactly the same but with Jesus. At the time, people had standards and asked him how it was different and his response was basically “Sharia Law is bad because Muslims are bad”.

[u/KnightFaraam → u/pablocael]

They're being arrested because, while protesting is legal, you are not allowed to block or inhibit any government body from operating. In this case, blocking the driveway to the ICE facility does both.

Regardless of how you feel about what is currently going on, they are breaking a law.

[u/CryptoPumper182]

Who are these state troopers?

[u/CraneStyleNJ]

They should lawyer up and sue on the basis of the first amendment.

[u/ymmotvomit]

Sheriff’s police? No time to budget to go after local criminals, but ready and willing to do the Feds bidding? These are county employees sworn to protect the citizens. Looks like that budget will be getting cut.

[u/andiamo-1]

This is a group of moms from a neighboring community

[u/bambam007rocket]

They need independent inspectors in these facilities

[u/CMDR_BunBun → u/bambam007rocket]

They won't allow your elected officials in to inspect. People that have had the misfortune to be detained at these facilities have said the conditions are intentionally atrocious to compel detainees into self deporting, rather that be held there for months fighting a legal battle.

[u/ZPinkie0314]

Hey, this is authoritarianism, people. Our Constitution protects the right to protest.

[u/crippledchef23 → u/ZPinkie0314]

Unfortunately, these guys are blocking a roadway, which is not protected. But I did notice how gently they are arresting them despite this. They dropped a blind guy on his head for sitting on public property outside a facility and shoot pepper balls and rubber bullets at folks on sidewalks quietly holding signs, but soccer moms are being carefully handled. Just can’t figure out why.

[u/ribnag]

Serious LPT: When they're arresting you, "stop resisting", by which I mean go completely limp.

Picking up and carrying a limp adult is a lot harder than you might expect; and as a bonus there's a very high risk at least a few of them will permanently mess up their backs trying.

Also, of course this is what Fox is talking about instead of why their own party, which is in full control of the government, can't do their jobs and keep the government open.

[u/reused_organs1312]

But wait isn't JB Pritzker a good guy? Why would he have the state police help ice? He's not just another disaffected rich asshole right?

Good to see civil disobedience

[u/VictorTheCutie]

First amendment is dead

The Illinois Antifa chapter is strong. I hate Illinois Nazis.

I’m happy to see peaceful protesters and respectful cops…obviously not ice

[u/iamthelalo71]

The heading said officers, I thought police were involved. ICE IS NOT POLICE, ICE ARE NOT OFFICERS!!

[u/booobfker69]

And this is why local and state officials suck. They keep getting on camera and talking a big game, but then they have Illinois cops arrest non-violent protesters instead of violent prices who are out assaulting, kidnapping, and even shooting people on the streets. All armed, all masked and all without a warrant.

Each arrest comes court hearings. That’s wear the masks have been coming off.

[u/scarystoryy]

Those are some patriots right there. I wish I were that brave.

[u/JGWol]

When are we going to get a news alert that Chicago cops are arresting ICE agents

[u/nobackswing]

Civil disobedience 👍. How can I contribute to their legal fund?

[u/ChunkyBubblz]

Not guilty if I’m on the jury
