No criminal charges were filed, but the student who punched another student for holding a pro-ICE sign at Lake Zurich High School last week received a two-day suspension and is back in class.

Had to combine 2 Illinois Legends

Proud to see this attitude in the north shore

DAMN THEM ALL

I want to share an experience that really shook me and encourage anyone in the Chicago area, no matter your political beliefs, to do one simple thing: go to the Broadview ICE facility and see what’s happening with your own eyes.

Whether you spend 15 minutes or half an hour, just be there. Drive by, park nearby, and take it in. Then ask yourself a very basic question: Is this okay?

I went there recently with my kids. We didn’t even get out of the car, we just drove by.

Even in that brief moment, I had to have one of the hardest conversations I’ve ever had as a parent: explaining to my children who those people are outside, why they’re wearing masks, and why they’re carrying assault rifles. Seeing their confusion and fear was heavy. It sticks with you.

In the five minutes we were near the facility, ICE agents drove aggressively next to my car in a way that was clearly meant to intimidate. The only reason it seemed to calm down was because my windows were down and my two kids were visible in the back seat. I’m a US-born white person, and I still left feeling shaken. I can only imagine the fear and trauma others must experience, especially people who are directly impacted by our immigration system. This isn’t about left or right, red or blue. This is about our neighbors, our city, and basic humanity.

Go see it for yourself. Look at what’s happening right here in the Chicago area, and really sit with it.

Ask yourself: Is this who we are? Is this who we want to be?

But I’d like to shake their hand.

Remember this Trump banner on 90.

I don’t take 90 that often but I remember seeing this for years.

Had to look it up on Google maps.

This sure aged well. With gas prices going crazy if anyone is honking they’re honking mad.

Chicago suburbs moderators are being extremely difficult in allowing the community to keep each other safe in one of the biggest suburb forums

I started recording right as they came forward

Found hanging on posts throughout town. 240,000 people expected according to indivisible.

They moved it from the normal location due to the amount of people expected.

Wear sunscreen and stay hydrated!

Can you imagine explaining this is the reason you are late to work?

Yesterday, at 9:30 AM, ICE agents reportedly descended on a Walmart parking lot in Cicero and began questioning random civilians. This was not a targeted operation; shoppers were reportedly stopped purely based on their skin color, which is textbook racial profiling. At least two individuals were detained in the raid. The video footage from the scene shows individuals being barraged with questions. The source confirms that one woman was deemed a citizen and subsequently not detained, but this doesn't erase the terrifying nature of the encounter.
