Too Dangerous for School

Minneapolis schools were closed today because ICE and DHS invaded Roosevelt High School yesterday afternoon at close of school. Adjudicated liar Greg Bovino of CBP (outside of the 100-mile border boundary) was on site with tear gas strapped to his chest. 

Staff were assaulted and kids were gassed. As quoted on Minnesota Public Radio:

“The guy, I’m telling him like, ‘Please step off the school grounds,’ and this dude comes up and bumps into me and then tells me that I pushed him, and he’s trying to push me, and he knocked me down,” a school official, who spoke to MPR News on condition of anonymity said. 

“They don’t care. They’re just animals,” the official added. “I’ve never seen people behave like this.” 

Today, parents were snatched at multiple child care centers in and near Minneapolis. Children were left in cars. 

More school districts and child care centers in the Twin Cities are closing on Friday because of fear of ICE intimidation.

Friday is a day of national unity against ICE. Find a solidarity protest or march or other action where you are and turn out. 

I think I will go to a mosque in Saint Paul, where one of our neighborhood groups is organizing a solidarity support wall outside their afternoon prayers.
