Chicago has exploded again as the Democrat-sponsored domestic terrorist groups Antifa and Black Lives Matter ramp up the chaos amid the feckless, demonic lack of leadership by communist Democrat Mayor Lori Lightfoot. Hundreds of rioters took to the streets of the Second City last night, looting stores all over town, including downtown Chicagos vaunted Miracle Mile, which this morning looked like the local garbage dump.
Here are some highlights:
There are many, many others all over the Internet today. Naturally, after President Trump once again offered federal assistance to put down the violent rioters, communist Mayor Lightfoot squealed that Under no circumstances will I allow Donald Trumps troops to come to Chicago and terrorize our residents, as if its the National Guard, and not the domestic terrorists burning the city down that is a threat to ordinary citizens.
Lightfoots mendacious response, of course, just shows that she is in fact a huge part of the problem, and has no intention of doing anything truly effective to protect the public.
Which brings me to a terrific Twitter thread put up by Breitbart writer John Hayward this afternoon. Hayward warns that, due to the complete takeover of the Democrat Party by its radical, Soros/Alinsky wing, Chicago like Portland, Seattle, Minneapolis and other Democrat-run cities is just an object lesson, and that any city can become just like it if voters stay asleep and keep voting for these seditious ghouls.
Its a great thread, and worth posting in its entirety. Here it is:
It continues:
Dont let Joe Bidens handlers convince you hes some kind of moderate who just wants reforms. The Democrat Party is 100% run by extremists now. They are VERY insistent that when they say Abolish the Police, they mean exactly that.
The core ideology of the radicalized Democrat party requires dissolving the rule of law. This is baked into everything they say, every policy they push. They think impartially enforced law is racist, sexist, transphobic, etc. Justice is the antonym of law to them.
Thats why Dems shriek like banshees against the presumption of innocence, a core concept in the traditional American understanding of law and justice. Their ideology is all about presumed GUILT. Every policy is based on politicized notions of identity and grievance.
Everything from Democrat speech codes to economic policy is based on variables of grievance and entitlement, not absolute principles that apply equally to everyone. What youre allowed to say and do, what youre allowed to own, depends on your class, race, and politics.
This radicalized concept of law as a political instrument is cooked into every single policy on the Left. Some people just have more rights than others. No rights are inalienable. Everything, right down to the words youre permitted to use, is calculated based on your identity.
These riot-prone blue cities are just the most vulgar example of what will happen everywhere in America if Democrats take power. Its ALREADY happening everywhere because they have so much power over media, and especially over education.
Once you throw out the rule of law, the presumption of innocence, and inalienable rights, youre lucky if the worst thing that happens is local officials deciding your family and property dont deserve police protection from looters, or the privilege of defending yourself.
Thats the key word right there: PRIVILEGE. The Lefts obsession with that word is very illuminating. They think everything is a privilege, nothing is an inalienable right. Privileges can be revoked. The term conveys a sense of unfairness that needs redressing.
Understand that the radicalized Democrat Party thinks even the basic duties of government, like protecting lives and property rights, are actually privileges. They hate police because they see them as racist mall cops enforcing the unfair privileges of the middle class.
The Democrats are hell-bent on taking those privileges away: your money, property, liberty, and security. Youre not even allowed to refuse to participate in their ideological crusades. They loathe middle class privilege, which they rhetorically disguise as white privilege.
If you want to keep a shred of the traditional, REAL American ideals of equality, opportunity, security, and lawfulness, vote against Democrats in November like your life depended on it. They will sacrifice every shred of law on their altar of justice unless you stop them.

You ignore Haywards advice at your own peril.
That is all.
Put a bandaid on it. A bandaid 30 fence.
This has been “their” plan since 1968, they just now own enough of society to make it happen (I debated these jerks in high school and they were very sure of their goals). Gonna get worse before it gets better.
No Chicago is not everytown USA.
Not even close.
