Helicopter Raids and Chemical Agents: Immigration Agents’ Aggressive Tactics Escalate Tensions in Chicago
Recent federal immigration operations in Chicago have drawn heavy criticism due to increasingly aggressive tactics. Agents have been reported to use helicopters, deploy chemical agents near schools, and detain individuals, including U.S. citizens and children. Such actions have led to a surge in neighborhood tensions and calls for investigations from state and local leaders. Furthermore, the tactics used by agents have sparked protests and legal challenges, with one suburb filing a lawsuit against the federal government’s actions.
