Gov. Pritzker calls on state agencies to investigate feds’ treatment of children at South Shore raid – Chicago Sun-Times

“Imagine being a child awakened in the middle of the night by a Black Hawk helicopter landing in your neighborhood. Imagine an armed stranger forcibly removing you from your bed, zip-tying your hands, separating you from your family, and detaining you in a dark van for hours,” Pritzker said in the statement. “This didn’t happen in a country with an authoritarian regime — it happened here in Chicago.”

One wonders whether CWBChicago, Chicago Contrarian and Wirepoints are in Pritzker’s news feed. The better question is why that building is in such horrible condition from safety and sanitation perspectives and why those kids are living in those conditions with city knowledge not to mention being surrounded by the Venezuelan gangs.

I imagine all these things, not for a child in South Shore, but for a neo-Confederate billionaire promoting insurrection against the Federal Government.
Let’s hope the Feds have zip ties in XXXL size.
