Lightfoot: If Cases Rise, We’ll Look at Mask Mandate and ‘Other Tools That We’ve Been Compelled to Use’
Breitbart ^ | 07/26/2021 | Ian Hatchett

Posted on 07/27/2021 1:27:39 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

During an interview with The New York Times‘ “Sway” podcast released on Monday, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot (D) said that if the city’s daily case rate is consistently over 200 cases per day, “we’re not only going to look at a mask mandate, but we’re going to look back at other tools that we’ve been compelled to use.”

Lightfoot said, [relevant remarks begin around 9:40] “Well, look, if we get back into an area where we feel like we’re in a red zone, which we are working very hard to make sure that our daily case rate is below 200, if we start to see consistently going over that, we’re not only going to look at a mask mandate, but we’re going to look back at other tools that we’ve been compelled to use. I hope we don’t get there. What we’re going to keep focusing on is pushing vaccine. But my number one priority is to keep people safe.”

Meanwhile, in Chicago, for the year to date per HeyJackass.com

Year to Date
Shot & Killed: 425
Shot & Wounded: 2053
Total Shot: 2478
Total Homicides: 450

Looks to me like high speed lead poisoning is a far more dire problem than CoupFlu.

Once again we see political office holders making totalitarian threats against citizens.

Yep, the talk of keeping people safe, considering how many people get shot in Chicago, sounds awkward.

Can we ask the mayor about keeping people safe from other threats too?

Lightfoot (along with all the democrats including then VP candidate Kamala Harris) are hoping the Trump vaccine is seen as a failure so they are able to bring back lockdowns.

Let’s NOT help them

“Once again we see political office holders making totalitarian threats against citizens.”

They make such threats because the public is indoctrinated and compliant.

Of course you will, you stinking communist.

Thoughts of things like mandates make you all tingly, don’t they?

Less than 25% killed indicates to me that they need more target practice. These are people hit and wounded as a result of gunfire being used as an indiscriminate attack on the public.

Simple solution would be to line the streets with trenches as to be able to get around under the lines of fire.

If masks and vaccines stop the virus, why isn’t the virus gone?
