“Monday’s march and rally were peaceful. But the massive turnout called for a major effort from Chicago police. In this Intelligence Report: the plan behind the police response.
This was not a cookie-cutter plan that Chicago police pulled from the book of standard protest responses. City police brass, with strong encouragement from the mayor’s office, began planning for the protest seven weeks ago, immediately after the last immigration march. On that day, Chicago police greatly underestimated how many people would turn out and the Loop fell into a Friday afternoon gridlock.”
