      Parent commenter was musing on the effects of ICE arresting a municipal police officer in Illinois, wondering if that action would set police (not CBP) against ICE. I believe that is more likely in Illinois, especially in the Chicago metro area, because cops are likely to stand together in Illinois especially, and Hoffman Estates is also quite liberal.

      I’m not sure where CBP came into this.

        police (not CBP)

        A very clumsy typo. I mean Chicago Police Department (CPD). But I did it on a cell phone and didn’t check my work.

          Fair enough.

          While this isn’t Chicago, I agree with that, and my point still stands. It would stand even more proudly if it were Chicago; CPD would most definitely circle the wagons.

          I’m not saying this makes CPD (or any cops) friends, but it would make them the enemy of my enemy. I’ll take it.
