If all 2.7 million residents of Chicago came out onto the street, ICE and the National Guard would run. Do it!

This is ICE's official number: 50%!! collateral damage, just like Israel. ICE is nothing more than a state terrorist organization designed to attack and divide the working class, just like cops. We must unite all of our forces against them and all the repressive apparatuses of the state.

Love to see it!
