I almost never see political stuff on Instagram but I just scrolled for 15-20m and saw three different frame by frame breakdowns of the ICE shooting showing how it couldn’t be self defense.

It’s literally the plot of Miracle on 34th Street why are people mad about this.
Fyi - yes we need more reporters talking about this. Bobo Design Studio on IG is doing an excellent job gathering data and talking with media about the issue.
Here is one article:

i think it is ok to reiterate that the victim as a us citizen. yes, noncitizens are equally entitled to human rights. but also, it's important to illustrate how ice isn't about immigration at all

I guess I missed the part where the punishment for being "disorderly" was being shot in the face by police.

Here's the ICE agent "defending himself" by shooting into the driver's side window of a car that's pulling *away* from him.
Put this photo on the front page of every newspaper in America.

What I observed today is ICE agents wildly driving through the streets, doubling the speed limit, passing cars on narrow roads. Stopping randomly in the middle of the street. ICE's goal is making mayhem.

I would like to see the use of force policy that allows them to fatally shoot at someone driving away.
Someone who claims to have witnessed the incident says
- car was blocking ice
- they told them to move
- "something happened'
- ICE shot into the car as it was driving away
- passenger got out of the car covered away and said friend was dead
There is video and I have seen it

In the 1900 census, there were 334 people in Cook County whose country of birth was recorded as "at sea".
Another fun thing about that census was that there were six different ways to record Poland as your birth country.

One Chicago ward had achieved Vision Zero.
It shows we know how to do it. Just need to decide we want to.

Kicking off 2026 with some fantastic news: there were zero traffic fatalities in the 1st Ward last year. When we invest in traffic calming infrastructure, we save lives.

Let’s peruse the linked report to see if 2021 was an anomalously high year we are comparing against.

Wild to see brand-new grade separation projects (this one in Fairfield, CA) widening a road from 2->6 lanes and only finding room for a 5', gutter bike lane.
This is what I mean when I say that traffic engineering exemplifies an anti-biking ideology.
