One Felon at a Time
- A 53-year-old man was wounded after being shot by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Chicago's Belmont Cragin neighborhood on the Northwest Side Monday morning, according to police.
The shooting happened just before 6:20 a.m. in the 6100 block of West Grand, Chicago police said. Family identified the wounded man as Felix Torres. ICE said they were not initially at the residence to arrest Torres.
ICE Homeland Security Investigations special agents were attempting to make an arrest when someone pointed a weapon at them, officials with the department said in a statement.
Pointing a gun at any law enforcement officer will usually get you shot. Everyone claims he was unarmed - but someone had a gun:
- Family members of Torres claim he did not have a gun and is in the United States legally. His daughter, Carmen Torres, told NBC 5 the family was not told why agents were at the home Monday.
Well, they had a warrant, signed by a judge. That's pretty much all the excuse they need. Of course, the suspects chime in:
- Ald. Carlos Ramirez-Rosa said the raid "is exactly why the City of Chicago should refuse to collaborate with ICE."
"This guns blazing ICE raid deepens my resolve to organize my community so we can keep each other safe from the threat posed by ICE," Ramirez-Rosa said in a statement. "The City and State should not wait until another Chicagoan is shot by ICE to act on strengthening the Welcoming City Ordinance and passing the TRUST Act (HB 3099)."
We have yet to see a city ordinance that would supersede Federal Law, and we doubt HB 3099 is going anywhere under this president.
Rahm meanwhile, pretends he has a pair tucked away in his tutu:
Rahm meanwhile, pretends he has a pair tucked away in his tutu:
- After Attorney General Jeff Sessions reiterated the federal government’s threat to block funding for so-called "sanctuary cities,” Mayor Rahm Emanuel doubled down on his own promise that Chicago will “continue to welcome” immigrants.
"I've always seen Chicago as a welcoming city,” Emanuel said in an interview from the Nasdaq stock exchange in New York on Monday.
“It welcomed my grandfather 100 years ago, we continue to welcome entrepreneurs, immigrants, and I would just say think of it this way: Half the new businesses in Chicago and the state of Illinois come from immigrants, nearly half,” he added. “Half the patents at the University of Illinois come from immigrants, and so we want to continue to welcome people, welcome their ideas, welcome their families to the city of Chicago, who want to build the American dream for their children and their grandchildren.”
You know what all those immigrants have in common Rahm? They were all LEGAL. They waited in line, completed the appropriate paperwork, passed a background check and did everything they were supposed to do. But now, the entire democratic party platform is based on supporting and abetting breaking Federal Law.

The family is actually pissed it wasn't
CPD that did the shooting...
>Gathered in a circle to shit in a hat<
Lol...
Go ahead and try to put a brutality beef
in against ICE.
Remember...
The Feds get a 72 hour window in which
nobody can say shit to them if they're
involved in a shooting.
The aclu demands CPD Officers give
a compelled post shooting statement
within hours.
Actually, CPD should have been
NOWHERE NEAR A FED INVOLVED SHOOTING!
First CPD supervisor on the scene
should've called it:
"Squad, dupe this and anything subsequent
to ICE, this event did NOT involve any
CPD Officers whatsoever. Every CPD unit
is up and clear."
Watched a couple of news broadcasts and
for some strange reason they seemed to
zero in on the CPD Officers milling around.
Yeah, all the prior (legal) immigrants had another thing in common...none of them would have voted for a creep like Rahm. The illegals on the other hand, have to vote for Rahm or else.
Watched the "interview" on TV and something just did not jive.
Family members seemed to be covering up something.
If everyone was so "innocent" why did they jump on the "poor little us" routine? If the guy had a gun that they didn't know of, that sounds fishy.
AND, they are "ALL" legal? Does not make sense.
Total story not being told. Many of us are tired of watching this half-ass news in Chicago.
What is the REAL story? Gang-banger? Affiliated ties to "??"?
Oh it was some "gun charge"? or gun possession or? All that sounded pretty gray.
2+2 doesn't equal cinco.
And what about all these people in Chicago who don't have money to pay for their property taxes? I'm sure many of them spent it on "other things". Drugs? Tattoos? Weaves? Rims? Important stuff.
They want more of a grace period? What about everyone else who PAYS their taxes on time?
The Sinaloa Cartel destroys neighborhoods in this city with their poison, but they also have a ton of money so.....
The daughter also said that ICE had no business making the arrest. She said the Belmont-Cragin police should have made the arrest.
One thing Rahm has shown, he should NOT be elected to ANY higher office.
In fact, the six people wanting to run for Governor, should look at replacing Rahm. So many Democrats think they "have what it takes".
Well, run for Mayor then. Rahm has already proven he is in above his head.
As a child of Mexican immigrants now citizens I welcome all legal immigrants who want to come here to work hard and be law abiding. Illegals can go back and get in line and do it the correct way! This is our country and we have the God given right to protect it!
I'm ashamed and disgusted that Ramirez-Rosa is currently my alderman.
So, he's going to organize 'his community' to break Federal law?
Cool. He should find himself in Federal court any minute now.
Maybe we'll vote a sane person with some common sense into the office, then.
Maybe someone who complies with the law.
The democrat party only believes in breaking the federal laws they don't like. They pick and chose laws they will obey, you know.
If Rahm's grandfather was her legally, then boy wow did the family tree take a 180-degree turn somewhere down the line.
What, you mean Rahm Emmanuel's fore-fathers were not WASP's who came over on the Mayflower?
This assholes grandfather if still alive would tell his grandson to STFU. I clawed my way in this country filling out forms on Ellis Island, I was checked for diseases, interviewed by officials as to who I'd be staying with. I did all this and yet you backstabbing MFer want to invoke me as an example.
It's always someone else. Normally CPD gets the blame when people are wrong. This time it's ICE. What's sad is if we can't support federal law are CPD officers going to punished for backing up federal enforcement agencies? Aldermans are blaming enforcement for doing their job! WTF is going on here???
It just doesn't seem right for police officers to not co-operate with federal law enforcement. That being said, I am sure most coppers are not looking to get jammed up. Perhaps the current administration could get some kind of law passed to protect police officers who co-operate with the feds, similar to "whistleblower" protection. Or maybe an anonymous tip line to ICE when we come across someone they are looking for.
hey dumb-ass rham... you have no chance in hell of winning the next election so quit pandering to the illegals you jag-a-loon.
Time for whenever an illegal commits a crime against a you it's an easy lawsuit and hopefully these asshole politicians are forced to pay out punitive damages.
He left out that they get a HUGE tax break for something like the first 7-10 years. That is why so many immigrants own 7-11, Subway and Dunkin doughnuts. If they had to pay taxes, they couldn't make money with those franchises. When their break comes to the end they will sell it to a family member and start the cycle over. Who has to pay to make up the difference in the tax break? You do. These franchises walk the immigrants through the paperwork.
Let's get it right here: It would be untruthful to say that ALL of the immigrants of the past (from Europe and elsewhere) were 'legal.' Illegal immigrants still come here in healthy numbers from Europe and even Ireland as well. They just manage to camouflage themselves better in our great American tapestry.
An ICE officer has a gun pointed at him and the alderman blames ICE? Just when you think that our aldermen couldn't sink any lower, this happens. Sticking up for a criminal and defending him? You couldn't make this up if you tried.
Quotes from the attorney, 2 paragraphs apart in the Trib article...
"He opened the door and, without cause, they shot him,"
“I don’t know that they had a warrant, but they certainly made forced entry into the house,”
Wait, so did he open the door and they shot him or did they force entry?
Feds need to start charging these conspiratorial politicians who are violating federal law
My favorite line was Rahms spokesman saying that not giving federal funds "for cities that are standing up for their values is unconstitutional." So his spokesman is saying that one's personal values supercedes the law. Well I have good values and receive minimal police service while neighborhoods with low values get massive police service. So I no longer will pay my taxes cause I don't believe I'm getting anything for my upstanding values. I also will no longer pay my water bill. Water is a natural resource and my religious values say God put water here for me to drink for free. I'm sure my values will be taken to heart and laws will no longer apply to me. They're MY values so I'm above the law, right Rahm?
Bravo second city cop The simple word easily understand is legal immigration not illegal immigration and a criminal immigration legal immigration then you have that alderman saying he is going to organize this community that alderman is another asshole number one how stupid are these people pandering every last one of the alderman do you like the idiots know what legal means they are pandering to get the votes because they know Chicago cook county in the state of Illinois is so full of corruption that the illegal invaders can vote without any identification because it is not needed due to the high levels of corruption. Wondering if this girl or her Family are illegals the alderman of that ward was just complaining crying about all of the college now we have this goofy being mad and ice it's even legal? The Attorney General the ice agents are now proud to be working for a law and order president of the United States of America President Trump will keep his promises the forgotten man and women of the United States of America of this city as a matter of fact will be happy and proud The alderman you can I resign you're a disgrace how can you stand up and viciously violate federal law laws are made for everyone since you decided to violate federal law why should anyone else obey any law?
When you violate the law alderman the mayor everyone else elected you set an example to everyone that lawlessness is OK that lawlessness is acceptable in the city of Chicago the county of cook the state of Illinois simple as that don't you think the illegals the felons listen to your idiotic retoric? Also you have to know that the lawful trustworthy honest people know the law and see are you clearly trample on the law this reflects in how Chicago police officers Are treated by the public thanks to you alderman you're an example of all that is wrong with this city! Then you wonder standing up for criminal behavior why the blood flows why the carnage is so bad it is because of you because of the elected you make the laws but yet you then choose just to break the laws no wonder people are fleeing the city state county they're leaving because of incompetent people like you the violence the high Texas people are fleeing quickly the number one state where people are leaving his Illinois idiots like you and the rest have caused this pat yourself on the back call have some more wine and cheese go tell some silly jokes collect more money for your campaign fine tell the businesses you have to pass in order to stay in business or in order to open a business is that the Chicago way? Of course it is when the Attorney General Jeff sessions sends the rest of his team here the forensic audit of the aldermanic accounts and the city budget will commence the county budget will commence all the joy we will have when the criminals are exposed God bless Chicago Police Department God bless the innocent people of the city of Chicago! God bless our voice this insignificant blog The spirits of the air second city cop.
Withholding federal funds is a good start. Then proceed to arrest and prosecute those civic leaders advocating for law breaking and ordering municipal employees to break the law. You can't pick and choose which laws you obey. The libs need to understand that civil disobedience has consequences and no matter how noble your actions make you "feel", you are a lawbreakers and will wind up in jail for breaking a federal law.
I would love to see Foxx try to charge the ICE agent!
I hope the 9 digit midget and the alderthieves get it stuck up their ass by Trump.
can the feds put rahm in jail for not upholding the law??
please arrest this crazy man............
nobody in my neighborhood would care
I welcome the "Fissure" in the Democrat Party that all of this is going to cause. If the Feds follow through and cut funds to Sanctuary Cities, then it will impact most upon Blacks. Jose from Mexico,Stanley from Poland and Sean from Ireland, all here illegally are not sucking up the Federal Funds at the rate of the West and Southside of the City. At some point, Black politicians are going to have to decide between their constituents and Rahm's Shitcaga Values. "Illegal" means a law was broken. How can a government support one form of violation of law, and not others? Rahm needs to maintain support in the Black Community for reelection, not the Illegal Community. But, then again after the VanDyke trial, Rahm may realize that he is finished politically in the Black Community, so now he'll really need that Lil Louie Gutierrez endorsement! Shitty of Shicaga Values. Baby "G"
Anyone care on how the ICE agents are doing.
Good shooting move on thanks ICE good job
More raids is the answer.
We have yet to see a city ordinance that would supersede Federal Law............
They will by default if no one is willing to enforce federal law
Not gonna be enforced in Illinois. Rahm and his cohorts are already planning to go to court to keep Sessions/Trump from stopping the federal funds
This battle is lost folks. It will get worse in Illinois after our new governor Kennedy takes office. The entire state will be declared "sanctuary"
I hope Trump cuts off every last penny.
So alderman now you teach "your community" to disobey the law and you wonder why the carnage is so high! You alderman and the rest that support criminal behavior and violate federal laws lead by example letting the criminals roam freely. Alderman this is another reason that I personally refuse to write traffic citations why should people that obey the laws be subjected to tickets and forced to pay money in the corrupt 1 sided crook county court system?
Alderman and other elected idiots here is a 1 minute video of AG sessions explaining the sanctuary city policy and what will happen how dumb are you elected?:
http://www.cnn.com/videos/us/2017/03/27/sessions-actions-against-sanctuary-cities-wh-briefing-sot.cnn
So alderman what part of this do you not understand? who will make up the lost billions? Not us! Hope the people that harbor the criminals no matter how important they think they are are arrested and prosecuted soon! god bless the police!
Wait until an unlicensed un insured illegal drives into your car. One of the reasons auto insurance is so expensive!

hey, tell us more about how that works!
sounds like a great scam, worthy of us aldermen!
And once again, the Scum Times writes an article depicting the Demcratic liberal view.......as if the working taxpayers
should just shut up and pay, pay, pay to allow anyone to roam free here.....
And still no one can explain WHY the U.S. must educate, feed, house, take care of 12 MILLION MEXICAN citizens...
Meanwhile, go to any grocery store, Walmart, currency exchange etc, etc on a Friday and watch all those money transfers to
Mexico from the under-the-table paid illegal workers.......I hear U.S. money is actually paying almost 15% of Mexico's GNP......
What a mess Little 9 1/2 and others like him have made of this country in the last 10 years.
Chicago Mayor Rahmicde will tax Chicago citizens even more ,to pay for illegals hiding from the law ..LOl
No wonder Crook County and Chicago lead rest of all of America in population loss.
Crap head alderman wonders Back of Yards shootings rise
Don't shop in Crook County anymore
Mr. Mayor Rahm, I would bet your ancestors would be ashamed of you. They immigrated here legally and here you are a fine upstanding advocate for criminals. You are, on the other hand, a fine example of a liberal democrat.
You are creating a problem which will blow up in your face and then you will blame it on your political rivals. All the while turning the United States into a country your ancestors would not have wanted to immigrate to!
I hope your nights are haunted.

Pass on shopping at these stores ,, workers look at you like your are an asshole.
Waiting in line at the Chase, over heard one of these assholes store owners complaining about his customers to the bank teller
>>>> [1] Legal Immigrant Shot <<<<
ICE Agents just don't randomly show up at your door at 6:20 in the morning, they're there because they had a WARRANT for someone using that address. ICE Agents also don't go around randomly shooting people, they only shoot if a GUN is pulled and pointed at them (or are otherwise in danger).
As to Torres 'not even owning a gun' -- please people, we've heard that one before from every relative of some dead gangbanger. So drop it, that line doesn't work, it never did. Plus, ICE Agents recovered a gun at the scene, or was that a Breakfast Burrito?
And to the Trolls, NO the gun wasn't 'planted', this ain't the 1960's any more. No Cop today would try that boneheaded move today. It only happens on TV now and TV ain't real life.
>>>> [2} Rahm Welcomes everyone to his Neighborhood <<<<
"I've always seen Chicago as a welcoming city,” Emanuel said...

Wow! That sure is a heck of a lot of 'Welcoming' there by 'Chicago'. Too bad 'Chicago' couldn't have been as 'welcoming' to Chick-fil-A a few years ago as it is with the Criminal Illegal Aliens that Rahm's protecting!
ps: Contrary to what Tiny Dancer led off with, I'm pretty sure that 'Chicago' did NOT 'welcome' his JEWISH grandfather 100 years ago. The fact is that Chicago was downright Unwelcoming to certain groups of immigrants.
But at least Rahm's Grandfather could find a job; 'Irish Need Not Apply'.
5.3 billion of federal funds to Chicago in jeopardy. That's a lot of money.
the daughter prefers local police make the arrest because cook county doesn't hold illegal immigrants behind bars....Sanctuary Paradise.....

New Executive order.
In order to protect the sanctity of the "family unit", uncontrolled immigration and Sanctuary Cities, be it so ordered:
Effective immediately every pro-illegal immigration Federal, State or local politician, guilt-ridden social justice warrior, Hollywood liberal, snowflake, liberal member of academia, MSM media reporter, TV news anchor/commentator, rev'rund, and other members of the clergy shall take into their own private residence a minimum of one poor downtrodden immigrant family. Country of origin to be determined at random.
Additionally, the "family" will be allowed to stay, free of any charge or any other encumbrance (other than voting democratic) for as long as the "family", or any part thereof, deems necessary.
For purposes of this Order a family shall be described as parents, children, half brothers and sisters, aunts, uncles, grandparents and first and second cousins.
Signed: Donald J. Trump

Hey Rahm, the immigrant Welcome Wagon bullshit is getting old.
Once a very nice area all around Grand Avenue, Halsted to Harlem...where did it go under the Democrats?
For instance:
Riis Park $600,000 renovation.
I remember the bocce ball courts at Riis Park, a favorite for the older European working and thriving "immigrants".
All these "immigrants" assimulated and are long gone, as probably are the bocce courts.
Before I left 025 there hardly was a street vendor peddling a tamale or paleta. In fact they had a goof riding a atv chasing these kind out of the park (he went on to be a merit boss). Now, I hardly recognize 025 with the colorful Southern North America vibe.
All the industry and factories are gone as are residents of the working class. Very few people out there know of all the shops and restaurants that were along GrandAve from Austin to Fullerton.
Rahm's Sanctuary has allowed the new immigrant to run unchecked to peddle drugs, commit robberies, shootings and murder thru-out the Northwestside of 025 Cragin-Montclare and that blight is spreading further into 016.
Unfortunate Chicago has many rebels like Alderthief RamieresRosa celebrating non-working armed adult assailants like Felix Torres.
They certainly enjoy setting examples for the rest of Sanctuary Chicago and Cragin-Montclare pachuco community.
It wouldn't be so bad if they at the very least kept the neighborhood in decent, clean condition.
I'm surprised the Alderfool hasn't changed the name to Rios-Rosa Grande Park by now.
He's a real pillar of the community, like his mentor Louie Gutierrez.
Emmanuel diverting tax dollars to help ILLEGAL aliens instead of Chicago students at CPS
President The Donald is a supporter of law enforcement. That ICE team will be decorated for their dedication.
When is ICE going show up at Oriole Park& Edison Park and lock up the Illegal Polish Parents dropping their kids off?
There's thousands of them that have infiltrated Chicago.
Mr. Rahm is all about perception, looking for those votes. He doesn't care about the financial loss, that's what taxpayers are for dummy.

It might surprise you that we are fine with that. Illegal is illegal and that means white, yellow, black or brown. They are all a drain. It's not a race thing, no matter how much the people that tell you how to think want to make it one.
