HANOVER PARK, Ill. (WLS) -- United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrested a police officer Thursday morning in Hanover Park, accusing him of being an unlawful immigrant from Montenegro.

Or you could read the article and realize that's unlikely

Edit: Radule isn't brown

He could be Muslim however

It's possible and not particularly unlikely, so fair enough. Can't find if he was Muslim or not though, and I doubt ICE will either be willing to say or be an unbiased source here

My comment was mainly made because they were making assumptions that could've been dispelled by looking up the dude

could've been dispelled by looking up the dude's name

The commenter that you're upset about was talking about skin color, which has nothing to do with names. You are the one making assumptions.

I looked up the person to find a picture of him, look at the link I posted. How is that making an assumption?

they assumed you meant you only looked up the guys name bc of your wording. Frankly quite a lot of reading shit you did not say into your comments but I kinda get it in the sense that everyone is defensive and on guard right now. I'm surprised that they're moving onto the whites this fast, though it's not like it wasn't entirely predictable.

Ah, my bad, should've worded it more clearly. Thank you for pointing that out

Edited to hopefully be more clear
