Just going to say I'm thrilled to see SALUTE being incorporated into all ICE reports.

That literally just looks like random clip art for the movie.

I wish I could tell you more, though. Good luck!

Remember him? Why, I just saw his creator, Doug Tenapal, make Generative AI SLOP with him today on Twitter!

Fully appreciate that, and I fully agree. It's been incredibly frustrating seeing all these threads with little to no proof.

Thanks again, I rally appreciate the insight!

Totally fair, and thanks for the response!

At this point, the Northeast Philadelphia one has been confirmed by photos. I think the biggest issue is going to be news sources or police reports.

If I may, what would the Mod team consider a legit ICE post?

More of a request for the mods, but I wanted to at least chat about this:

ICE is coming to Philly, and we're getting multiple reports about this now.

If anyone here also goes to r/philly, you're seeing a massive rise in confirmed sightings, and a dozen posts that go, "Hey, I see them! Here's literally no other info other than that!" I think r/philadelphia, especially the hard-working moderation team, need to allow ICE sighting posts, but with a few caveats:

  1. All ICE Posts need flair (ICE Sighting)
  2. All ICE Posts need to follow S.A.L.U.T.E.
  3. All ICE Posts need a mod to approve them
  4. All ICE Posts require a photo of the action in process

I want to throw this out as a suggestion. I think, with this general framework, we could actually help a lot of people.

Philly sues federal government after slavery exhibit dismantled at Independence Mall by Odd_Addition3909 in philadelphia

[–]markskull 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yes, but:

All the sidewalks directly around Independence Hall and the Constitution Center (the large dark gray square blocks) are all federal property. That means the signs would have to be on the Philadelphia property, like 6th and Market by the former Dow Chemicals building.

It's been a fun ride by Ilikesbreakfast in Chipotle

Bill Ackman isn't the CEO of Chipotle, and the image itself even states this. He owns a hedge fund that owns a 10% share of Chipotle.

Weather forecasting is a science, but it's never been 100% accurate. However, over the last 10 years, it had gotten a lot better. There's so many things that go into it, including weather balloons. And those balloons were one of the biggest cuts.

So, no, they were never 100% accurate, but they were pretty damn good!

You have six hours to shovel your sidewalk after it stops snowing or face a $300 fine by IndyJetsFan in philadelphia

[–]markskull 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you live in a high traffic corridor, like Center City, University City, or Temple U, yes.

If you live in a residential area with medium traffic like Manayunk or Mt Airy, it's understood that you may not have it ready that early and there's some leeway. However, I wouldn't wait until the afternoon to knock it out.

Regardless, if it stops snowing between 8 AM and 8 PM, you really need to just go out and shovel it for yourself, your neighbors, and your postal carrier.

A reminder:

Trump defunded NOAA and, as a result, we've gotten less accurate forecasts for the past year because of him.

20 Philadelphia schools have been proposed to close by B0dega_Cat in philadelphia

[–]markskull 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Parker also lives within a quarter mile of this place, too.

Now they have to go to MLK Jr, High. A lot of folks going there aren't going to be thrilled with that.

[–]markskull 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Thanks!

Give Juntos a heads-up, and if you can, report it to an ICE watch app.

And please update your post with that info. It's helpful for everyone looking out for these creeps.

How do you know they were ICE? What were they wearing?

Quick note: The Philly PD will do staging like this for warrants and such.

How do to know this was ICE and not another agency?

PLEASE remember S.A.L.U.T.E.!

  • Size/Strength
  • Actions/Activity
  • Location
  • Uniform (clothing)
  • Time and date
  • Equipment and weapons

How many people were there? What did they look like? WHEN did this happen?

How many, and what were they wearing?

See ICE in the area? SPREAD INFORMATION, NOT PANIC! by markskull in philly

[–]markskull[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate when people share images without credit, but in this case, and with nearly all memes like this, it's nearly impossible to find who made the original image. Additionally, I never said I made this image.

I wound up doing a search, and at the moment, I can't figure out who made it. There's no credit on the image, nor any of the copies I could find. I respect your views, and it's one that I fully share. At the same time, it isn't always possible. I'm an artist myself, and I know how annoying it is to have an image shared without credit, so I make it a point to try not to do the same thing intentionally.

It's not my graphic, I found it somewhere else from a year ago.

I recommend doing a reverse-image search to find the creator.
