The pair supports the Black Lives Matter movement and the uprising, Amber said, but living smack dab at the intersection of the downtown unrest and the COVID-19 pandemic has been incredibly difficult. Morons.
They are supporting the very thing they are fleeing from and probably taking their crappy politics with them.

“These city refugees are going to f#ck up the rest of the country”.
You’re exactly correct. They flee the shitholes they created and then proceed to vote for the same policies and politicians in their new town/city/state. Like Cancer, they Metasticize.

So heading to the burbs to spread their politics which led to this; effing locusts
If only they could be dispersed, like, only ten city refugees per square mile.

I think people forget that people do live here, too its not just the Guccis and the Jimmy Choo stores, she said. And I completely support it all. You stealing shoes means nothing to me that doesnt hurt me at all. Its just the fact that that brings more crime, and that does endanger me. Um, yes, their stealing shoes DOES hurt you and everyone else ultimately>
I sure hope you enjoy paying higher prices to make up for the loss by the theft you blow off as meaningless.
And no, they didn't forget that people live there, too. They don't care if real people live there and get hurt.

The pair supports the Black Lives Matter movement and the uprising, Theres an outside chance she is saying this to a reporter out of fear, or distrust of the media.
Otherwise, shes a fool and deserves a good part of the blame for her circumstances.

If they voted for it, they shouldnt be allowed to leave
Oddly enough, the proposed odious exit taxes (= real estate transfer fees that the seller has to eat) may actually help here.

Ambers husband also works as a nurse. The pair supports the Black Lives Matter movement and the uprising, Amber said, but living smack dab at the intersection of the downtown unrest and the COVID-19 pandemic has been incredibly difficult.
Chicagoans are too damn stupid. They keep voting for FAIL. That is why I moved. My house closes in September. Bye bye Chicago and stupid idiots who continue to vote for FAIL!!!!!

Scary stupid.
Safety should always be the absolute top priority in choosing where to live--unsafe area is a total deal breaker.

It doesnt have to be like this. Chicagoans could get the crime under control if they really wanted to, if they wanted to vote in the types of leaders willing to enact PROVEN measures.
Looters might not be happy though.

Limousine Liberals on steroids. Is there something in the water that causes such delusion and stupidly in Chicago? I think they may be more stupid than the libs in NYC.

I was sincerely hoping that these folks would be somewhat red-pilled by now. Woe will fall upon the people in those places where they settle.
