Kids take turns whacking a piñata shaped like an ICE AGENT at city-sponsored block party in Chicago

A city-sponsored community block party in Chicago sparked controversy when children were seen whacking a piñata shaped like an ICE officer.

The provocative image was seen at East Side Community Day on July 13, organized by the Chicago chapter of the Los Brown Berets, a nationwide pro-Chicano nonprofit.

A member of the group said they purchased a Batman piñata and transformed it to look like an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer to make a statement about the agency's actions at the southern border.

At least a dozen children were photographed and filmed lining up to take their turn beating the piñata, sometimes with the assistance of their parents.

It might be a harmless game, but I hope none of these children get it in their heads to actually assault an officer of ICE?

It worries me, because ICE are extremely dangerous, and we all know that law enforcement in this country won't hesitate to shoot a child.
