Social media users are venting their rage over a recent ABC7 Chicago broadcast, where the news outlet interviewed locals who were telling illegal migrants how to avoid being captured by federal authorities.
The broadcast detailed how Chicagoans are patrolling neighborhoods, informing the community of recent mass deportation raids, and telling illegal aliens what to do if Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers end up on their doorstep.
News anchor Cheryl Burton spoke from the studio on Wednesday, before cutting to reporter Michelle Gallardo in the field.
Burton said: 'Chicago's immigrant community is on edge tonight as Michelle Gallardo reports, activists and elected officials are canvassing neighborhoods, letting people know their rights should ICE come knocking - don't open for ICE.'
Gallardo spoke to local business owners, who have been plastering 'don't open for ICE' posters on their windows and giving local illegal immigrants tips on how to survive during the new Trump administration.

Find out when their broadcast license comes up for renewal and file a complaint. When they lose their license, the complaining filers can get control of the station for a $600 million windfall. That happened in Bostontotheir channel7.
