PS58Q is in Maspeth so it checks out
I should note that I’m not blaming the teachers union. The teachers union actually asked/told the teachers not to wear the NYPD support shirts. The teachers did it anyways.
Because it’s about fear.
Bingo. This is a bastardization of what the ICE is supposed to stand for. It’s like when corrupt governments turn the police into their private goon squad. Hmmm, wait a minute!
All intimidation is good publicity. They wanted to scare everyone in that school.
People can talk shit about New York City, but you can always count on us to have your back.
100% positive that they got a tip from a racist informant. teacher.
Of course they’re not going to go after Trump’s “bad hombres” — it’s much easier to go after people who are just trying to live their lives. Like this guy, whose neighbors and WIFE all voted for Trump:
Since a lot of NYC teachers wore t-shirts to support the NYPD after the NYPD killed Eric Garner, I’ll be money that, if there was an inside informant, it was a teacher.
I suspect this may be worse than that. This sounds very much like a mob enforcer letting an opponent know “I know where your children are.”
Correct. If ICE just wanted to know if said child was enrolled at the school, pick up the phone and call the school. No way they sent an agent down to the school to check on enrollment in person. ICE calls for work and school checks (I know from my livings); they send out agents to pick people up.
Morally bankrupt enough to work for ICE. Fuck everyone who has anything to do with removing humans from there houses. Fucking Christians.
If they were just looking to verify certain facts, why couldn’t ICE just call the school and ask to speak to the appropriate school employee? Doesn’t seem very efficient to send two officials in person.
I gotta say, this is definitely a +1 for the de Blasio administration which.... has been middling, at best, thus far. The school handled the situation perfectly, and the way he backed the school sets an excellent precedent.
It is a super good thing our educational intelligentsia is starting to not just push back, but take a serious stand on the part of students.
+1,000,000 points to the school for saying “hell no” to those agents. How morally bankrupt do you have to be to harass a MINOR at school? It reminds me of collection companies that will call or email the CEO of the company you work for, or harass your extended family.
100% positive that they got a tip from a racist informant.
but it’s hard to feel sorry for the guy when he’s being this stupid in front of a massive audience
Well, this seems pretty cut and dry, folks. The whole situation kind of stinks, but it’s hard to feel sorry for the guy when he’s being this stupid in front of a massive audience. Otherwise, I think Toronto Esports did the right thing.
