ICE tried to kidnap 2 kids from a preschool in Seattle today

This is per my sister.

Her boyfriend works at the preschool.

The officers that showed up had no warrant, so the school officials told them to fuck off.

I hate my country right now.

Were the kids siblings? Parents in a divorce situation? Pissed off father working for ICE trying to get around court order regarding child custody? Just wanted some brown kids?

My biggest concern is that some of these ICE 'detentions' and/or removal from the country might be about trafficking.

Will check Seattle news for any details

I think it can officially be categorized as "hearsay" as she's repeating her boyfriend's account.

I did a quick google and didn't find anything.
However, it could be that the school has not reported the incident to the media.

than this binning of conversations into silos (forums) and the difficulty of moving and linking.

I'll bet 80%+ of posts without reputable external links are just anecdotal.

There are so many raids etc that even if the news investigated, there's no way they'd keep up.

They don’t seem to have normal emotions about these kidnappings and family separation and abuse of children, but they did seem captivated by fake stories like Pizzagate.

Wouldn't that mean a child who sexually assaults another child?

So maybe ICE thought that was who they were trying to abduct?

They infiltrate groups of other children, blend right in, and then attack. Downright insidious, I tell you!

One of their tactics is to nab kids and use them as hostages to force the immigrant parents to turn themselves in.

They probably easily joined ICE and are using what they think is power to gather up some victims. I'm sure pedo Trump and puppy killer Kristi won't mind.
