    This isn’t normal, was never normal, and never should have been normal. How did this happen in our country?

  2. Teacher, be sure to let the kids know that this is all being done to protect them—And to discard contaminated clothing, don’t rub their eyes, flush their eyes for 15 minutes, and try to keep breathing at an even pace. Also, discard any classroom art that includes rainbows—that shit is dangerous.

  3. That’s all just a little bit of history repeating. How many remember when the police bombed Philadelphia from a helicopter? And then denied access to firefighters until four blocks burned down.

  4. > Chicago … underfunded schools.

    What a joke. Chicago spends almost $30,000 per student per year. In no universe, Chicago schools are “underfunded”.

  5. This occurred blocks from my home and the school is also the drop off location for ballots for the wards in the area. All that to say that is a very busy and regularly had a variety of Chicagoans of all types in and near the area.

    The fact that this situation wasn’t met with an immediate investigation by whoever the hell “controls” ICE is a testament to how far the US has plummeted in terms of law, order and decency.

    GOP supporters should be ashamed of themselves but one would need dignity, empathy and intelligence in the first place.

    What the actual fuck. I didn’t think anything could surprise me at this point but this is actually mind bogglingly cruel.

  7. ICE can’t enter the schools without explicit permission. Add a little tear gas and everyone has the leave the school, and the kidnappings can begin.

  8. Fun Fact: Tear gas is a chemical agent banned in use for war by the Geneva Convention.

    So it’s !!GREAT!! that it’s a weapon of first resort for the Trumpwaffen ICEICE and that they are so vile they’ve got no problem firing it in spitting distance of an elementary school.

    I remember When Alan Ginsburg was testifying at the trial of the Chicago 7, well 8, initially…

    And he spoke about his experience in the demonstration and was talking about how a large group of Christians was carrying a cross and protesting when the tear gas started flying.

    He was some distance from this, and he turned to the people around him and said “Oh look! They have gassed the Cross of Christ.”

    I’m not sure that’s verbatim, it’s been a long time.

    But either way, shit sure hasn’t changed much in Chi town.

  10. Wow, must’ve had dozens of armed, dangerous children in that school. /s

    Fuck fascism and fuck anyone that enables this domestic terrorism to continue.

  11. All the psycho incels who had just enough impulse control to not shoot up their schools joined ICE apparently.
