  1. Yeah, I wouldn’t release a kid to people who weren’t their legal parent or guardian without written legal documentation, either. Sorry, Rokita. “Frustrating” or being annoying isn’t illegal.

    I also find it very rich that the “protect the kids” party is also the party of, “Let us take your kid out of school without a warrant.”

  2. Glad to learn that IPS is protecting its students from often-unidentified armed thugs who have a reputation of abducting people and hauling them off without due process. It’s very telling that ICE and Rokita find safeguarding the well-being of kids to be “frustrating.”

  3. Very Christian of him. The zealots on the right cheer this behavior – kidnapping kids and sending them abroad because a parent risked their lives to immigrate here seeking a better life for their children. Most of our ancestors did the same thing but it happened to be 100-200 years ago when the citizenship requirements were less onerous.

    1. Yes, and it was legal to own slaves 100-200 years ago. Times change, laws change. I don’t think you could own slaves now and say you were doing it because 100-200 years ago, laws against slavery were “less onerous”… And most (European – the vast bulk of immigrants 100-200 years ago) came into the country through official documented channels (see Ellis Island).

  4. I believe that the schools are responsible for the children who are in their custudy, i.e. attending school. Without a warrent ICE has no authority to remove a child from the custody of the school. But since Rokita is the head of law enforcement for the State, he would know that. He just continues to be an a** who needs to be removed from office. He is a total embarassment to the State and the Office.

  5. “We’re fighting to make sure our schools are places of learning, not lawlessness.”
    Really? Because a kid in school who is learning is “lawless”?

    1. It’s literally the same recycled language used by those opposed to school integration in the 50s.

    1. Republicans surveys require a donation to summit the survey answers which skews the results toward supporters as opponents are not going to pay to summit their answers .

  6. Imagine if you will a time when ICE is allowed to take whomever they want off the streets, whenever they want, without a warrant or other legal authority. How long do you think it will be before those who are involved in human trafficking will simply dress up as ICE agents and start grabbing people off the streets or from their homes? Wait, the time is here and now.
