When all else fails, blame the victim.

Seal & Peel?

If English can have both "peel" and "peal," why doesn't it have "seel" and "seal"?

[Drew68]

Sure, a chip in the back of the hand that can be scanned like a debit card would work great. Right?

And we'll have thugs hacking off people's hands instead of just stealing their wallets.

So can they use a Cartel issued credit card for evidence that someone is buying drugs? That would mean every street person would have to have a bank account and check book to make the payments.
New job opening will be available for the Cartel debt collection agency.

[Dilbert San Diego]

Yes I think that is the reasoning here.

Women will avoid being raped or assaulted if they don’t attract attention to themselves.

The street vendors will not be robbed if they don’t have cash on hand.

Drivers will not be carjacked if they don’t drive through the city.

But if you add it all up it sounds like people need to avoid being in Chicago in the first place.

Whomever is voting for this (expletive deleted) needs to have their voting rights taken away. Permanently. As long as such people can vote, we’ll never be able to fix America. If we can’t fix America, America’s collapse will be catastrophic.

Either that, or deport the teens to Martha’s Vinyard or something

[Secret Agent Man]

And heres another angle the elites are using to get rid of physical cash.

Create the problem to force their wanted, desired “solution”.

They adopt polices that make crime surge, then say stop using cash to reduce their own-created problem.

[I want the USA back]

No, woman of little mental capacity! It’s your job to keep the people safe, including street vendors. Your city is nothing but a deep latrine thanks to the crime that you will not stop, but encourage.

[depressed in 06]

The guilty vote Bolshekratic.

[Lurker]

Mmm. Portillos Italian Beef.

Besides, it's easier to track their sales and tax them this way.

[Deplorable American1776]

Will they accept Bitcoin? 🤓

[Deplorable American1776]

I got to watch the Chicago NASCAR street race this year. I’d love to see a carjacking of Ty Gibbs #54 Toyota. Or as drive by shooting or a car chase... 🤓

[Jacob Kell]

It’ll be just like Demolition Man!

[heavy metal]

ty gibbs and the #54 toyota is the replacement for the former kyle busch #18 toyota for joe gibbs racing in the nascar cup series starting this year...
