The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I've said a time or two 'I wonder when illegals will start revolting'.
A minor incident probably but word will spread and who knows what will happen next.

'Chicago police call for backup when migrants 'revolt' upon seeing one of their own arrested outside 12th District station'
Snip
'Vielma reportedly fled from officers but was arrested when he appeared in front of the station shortly before 11 a.m.

At that point, multiple sources said, migrants who live in a nearby lot intervened and tried to defeat the arrest.

'The whole camp tried to physically intervene and pull [the] offender from police,' an officer texted on Tuesday afternoon. 'One migrant took a swing at a sergeant.

A CPD supervisor radioed for more units to come to the station: 'Line in front of the station, cameras on! Line in front of the station, cameras on!'

Another officer soon reported that the migrants were 'a little bit belligerent, but we got it under control.'

'We have about 200 migrants,' another sergeant estimated.

A source confirmed that district supervisors pulled two of the district's patrol cars off the streets for the rest of the shift to maintain security at the station.'
