Cartwright described for Rolling Stone a years-long struggle to keep kids safe at school. “Munitions and tear gas — we aren’t new to this,” she says. “We’d been next to the ICE building the whole time.” She emphasized that the school has coexisted “harmoniously with the protesters,” but adds: “Our issue is the chemical weapons being used against them that were impacting our space.”

But as the intensity of the conflict rose, it soon became clear that the school would have to make a dramatic change. “We were getting nightly reports that green gas was enveloping our garden — our edible garden — and all of the different chemicals were impacting our soil.” Cottonwood faced the costly prospect of constant testing and remediation, or being unable to use its outdoor spaces. When the bottom dropped out of enrollment, the school chose to relocate to a recently vacant middle-school campus where Cottonwood could take over the lease.

To be clear, ICE isn't TARGETING the school, the school just happens to be across the street (red marker here) from the ICE office that is being protested.

So as ICE uses munitions against the protest, the school is facing the side effects.

Headline makes it sound as though ICE is targeting the school due to migrant students or something and that is not the case (yet).

Also note: There are no kids in that school currently, first day of school for them is 9/2.

Suppressing protesters in a democracy with free speech is just as bad. So happy we finally Made America great again!

Why is ICE involved in handling this protest? I had no idea they were trained or authorized to do that.

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Same deal with the protests at the federal building back in 2020... attacking a federal agency is a federal crime, not a local one. Local police don't have jurisdiction.

So... I am not trying to be clever here.... That makes ICE qualified to manage protesters?
