Chaos erupted in a Chicago neighbourhood after ICE agents fired tear gas on a residential street during an immigration raid, moments before the start of a children’s Halloween parade. Footage shows residents in Old Irving Park confronting federal agents who had several suspects pinned to the ground on Saturday (October 25), as tear gas enveloped the area. Tensions have been high in Chicago as the Trump administration ramps up his anti-immigration agenda. Last week two high school students were detained after clashes between protestors and ICE officials.

        And ironically at this point, the second amendment - we are getting dangerously close to people starting to shoot at Nazis, which is also what they want so they can declare martial law… we are damned if we do, damned if we don’t at this point

    People! Calm down. All is going according to plan. That’s what most Americans either supported or weren’t opposed to strongly enough to prevent.

    How can we be sure they weren’t just having some light-hearted spooky fun?

    It’s really starting to look like “stopping terrorism” actually means “terrorizing the populous before anyone else steals their opportunity”
