Insurrection in Chicago - Chicago police ordered to ignore Border Patrol agents’ plea for help while surrounded by angry mob of protesters

You should apply with the Chicago PD leadership.
That would be a perfect fit! 💩
Why? My department already feels the same way.

We can't stop ICE from coming here, but they are most definitely on their own.

Well guess we will see how that works out for your dept?
 
You can stop pretending you care about people. They only seem to have your concern when they advance some political agenda you favor.
You should climb down off that horse for a moment and consider reality.

Trump put these people in a very bad position, deployed them for his own political purposes in places they are unwanted and unneeded.

Someone is going to get killed, and it will be entirely Donald Trump’s fault.

They sat their fat asses inside their SUV and lobbed tear gas out the windows into a neighborhood.

It wasn’t about “protecting themselves”. No one was near their vehicle.
Fox doesn't tell them things.

That makes sense. Should ICE agents, in the process of doing their jobs enforcing immigration law, find themselves in a dangerous situation, any injuries -- or worse -- suffered as a result of the Chicago Police willfully ignoring their calls for help will be Donald Trump's fault.

On second thought, wait, no, that is just effing stupid.
 
It will work out fine. We are within both the law and our charter in not cooperating.
Certainly so. Which is why they want to bring in the National Guard. Someone who will actually do something to protect officers just trying to do their jobs.
 
Just because they’re human doesn’t mean they deserve or have earned hospitality, respect or access to private business amenities.
We are discussing a scenario where ICE agents are facing physical harm, and you characterize the CPD's ability to render aid to be a "private business amenity]?"

You continue to astound.

Not what I said at all, but you do you.
 
My take was an entirely reasonable interpretation of what you said. If you meant something else, you're welcome to explain what that was.
No thanks. You misinterpret often.
 
Chicago police ordered to ignore Border Patrol agents’ plea for help while surrounded by angry mob of protesters (link). Is this really happening? Do those giving the "orders" not believe that they are in the U.S.? Whether those under attack are ICE agents or "Joe Blow" is it legal for mobs to attack American citizens? Excerpt:
It's the way America has worked for the past 20+ years. If a right winger commits an act of violence it's "domestic terrorism" and the full force of the federal authorities MUST be used against them. If a left winger commits violence then it's a "mostly peaceful protest" and we need to ban police.
 
“No thanks. You misinterpret often.”
Translation: "That is what I meant, but I'm going to pretend otherwise as defending that position would be awkward."
It didn’t take you long to demonstrate.
