    This was not an incident involving ICE if anyone here would bother to read beyond the headline

    CHICAGO (WLS) – The U.S. Secret Service told the I-Team they approached a South Side school Friday. Chicago Public Schools officials had initially said the agent or agents were from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

    Secret Service said they were investigating a threat, and responded to a house. They said they were then told the person they wanted to talk to was at Hamline Elementary School, but they did not enter the school, the Secret Service told the I-Team.

    The threat the Secret Service was investigating was not immediately clear.

    CPS officials had claimed an ICE agent or agents were denied entry to the South Side elementary school Friday morning.

    ICE said this was not a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement encounter.

        Ok go that route I guess.

        We can either choose to make up crazy shit to get upset about and believe a headline that has already been corrected or be logical people looking for the real problems to direct our energy towards.

            You ever think that, with the current climate, they overreacted before having all of the information? Why are you choosing to not apply basic reasoning to the situation?

              If they overreacted, why haven’t they said so? Why are they maintaining what you claim is a lie? Because my “basic reasoning” is that there is zero advantage to them lying about this. Please explain why.
