US Secret Service approached South Side school, not ICE agents, CPS officials say

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

“CPS will continue to protect our students and their families in alignment with the Illinois TRUST Act and Chicago’s Welcoming City Ordinance,” one school official said.

Chicago Teachers Union President Stacy Davis Gates called the situation “unprecedented” at a news conference Friday afternoon.

    That’s a fair point, but you could also consider his factory still contributed to the war effort.

      It absolutely did. Schindler contributed to the deaths of a vague many while saving some specific few.

      If he had shuttered (and potentially sabotaged) his factory would more people have been saved or would he simply be replaced by a more cruel person who killed all those vague many and the some specific few.

      It’s hard to know - and it’s why I take umbridge with viewing things through such a stark black and white lens. I legitimately don’t know the answer - either in that case or with ICE. But I know, simply due to the scale of people, that some people are genuinely trying to reduce the harm of ICE from within.

      One thing to bear in mind is that Schindler is generally hailed for his actions - I don’t know if they were correct and optimal… but a lot of people do think they were praiseworthy.
