Black Lives Matter Chicago and other social justice groups filed suit Thursday against several federal law enforcement agencies seeking to prevent agents deployed in Chicago by President Donald Trump from harassing and detaining protesters.
The civil rights lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court comes a day after Trump said the federal officers would assist local police in reducing violent crime - and not form a camouflaged paramilitary strike force like the one that detained protesters in unmarked vans in Portland, Ore. recently. Trump, however, did not rule out a heavier-handed response in the future.
“We know the authoritarian tactics they have planned because of what they’ve been doing in Portland,” attorney Tess Kleinhaus, who filed the suit, said Thursday during a news conference downtown in Federal Plaza.
“The lawsuit is seeking injunctive relief to restrain federal law enforcement officers from violating the First and Fourth amendments of protesters, legal observers and journalists,” Kleinhaus added.
The First Amendment assures freedom of speech, while the Fourth Amendment protects from unreasonable search and seizure.
“They are trying to suppress our righteous anger, and we will not be suppressed, we will continue fighting back,” Aislinn Pulley, a founder of Black Lives Matter Chicago, told a crowd of about 150 demonstrators Thursday.

Funded by over a billion dollars in corporate money!
They can afford to hire lots of high-priced lawyers.
This is the American ruling elite trying to put down the revolt by American populists.
BLM is just a tool, but a tool that may get away from them.

They are not being sent to harass and detain protesters but to protect against violent and destructive actions.
I KNOW that I've forgotten something and I KNOW that I'll be corrected.
--That means that MARRIAGE of one man and one women produces children whom THEY educate at home the first years of the children's lives.
--It means educating those children about God.
--It means no children out of wedlock even if the gubmin promises more money for more children.
--It means WORKING for a living and supporting those who love you and those whom you love.
--It means supporting worthy charities.
--It means doing one's duty as a citizen, voting, supporting our leaders we elected.
--It means having the backbone to obey the rules of both church and state.
When the BLM movement wants to BLAME someone each and everyone of those screeching, pathetic morons should look in their MIRROR.
Depends on the judge they get.
“BLM is just a tool, but a tool that may get away from them. “
Like the Red Guard got out of Mao’s control.
Too busy chasing dangerous "right wing extremists". They are the real enemy, those bitter clingers with their bibles and guns! BLM and ANTIFA are just a bunch of peaceful protesters. Don't you watch the news?
The administration is being told/advised, to go by the constitution or go by the nov election polls.
I hear the right side also scared to do anything that would drive up bidens numbers or bypass the constitution.
While the riots.. the destruction.. the power given to the rioters.. go dangerously on every night.
This is really dumb to let this go on..
Put armed helicopters over the anti American crowd.. use loud speakers and tell them they have 30 min to leave.. keep the lights on them.
Fire warning rubber bullets.. then the real thing.
We wouldn’t allow a foreign gov to do this to us.. why are we allowing these who are trying to overthrow our country to take over cities and destroy our land
It’s real. The child is two.
I heard the BLM has 1.6 billion in funding.
The Feds know who they are.
Don’t make trouble, won’t be trouble.
I have barely a doubt that some leftist judge will grant bLM what the want.
Communists suing for the right to overthrow a Constitutional Republic. That’s rich.
If black lives truly matter than it should be a crime to murder/abort a black baby. It should be a federal hate crime for a black person to murder another black person just as it’s a hate crime for another race to murder a black person
Let’s make ALL black lives matter!
1,001 communist front groups vs. Judicial Watch. Pathetic, isn’t it?
They are no longer “protestors” as far as I’m concerned, these are domestic enemies of the USA who have declared war against this country. Now they are PERMANENTLY blinding cops with lasers besides bashing their heads in? Screw this crap, bring in the military and take them out the second they start in with the attacks
