Here’s what appears to be a little girl shackled at the wrists and ankles boarding an ICE flight on Avelo Airlines yesterday. Seattle (Boeing Field) to Mesa, AZ, an ICE detention hub.
Not one of those men helped her up the stairs.

The number of children injured or killed by cars while walking or riding a bike has fallen steadily since the 1970s, but CDC researcher note that this decline is not because streets are safer, but because fewer kids are out and about in the first place.
