Can Chicago protect the people going to the convention?
American Thinker ^ | 17 Apr, 2024 | Silvio Canto, Jr.

As we saw this week, the mob closed O'Hare Airport and travelers had to get out of their cars or miss their flights. Was this a "test run" for the convention? Probably so. Add Midway Airport plus local freeways and moving around the city will be a nightmare. Add to this the shooting, and who in the world wants to go to the convention? The convention hall is going to look like a fortress, and who knows what will break out on the floor? The Squad will be there and that's a formula for madness.

My point is that this is a city out of control. Over the weekend, they shot 43 and chaos reigned again. Here is the story:

At least 43 people were shot, seven of them fatally, during the weekend in Mayor Brandon Johnson’s (D) Chicago.

ABC 7 reported Saturday began violently and ended that way as well.

At 6:30 a.m. Saturday, a 29-year-old man “in the Logan Square neighborhood’s 2600-block of North Sawyer Avenue” was shot and killed. Police do not know what led up to the shooting.

At 5:15 p.m. a 22-year-old man with multiple gunshot wounds was found lying in the street “in the 7700 block of South Carpenter Street,” according to CBS News. He was transported to a hospital and pronounced dead.

Within minutes of the 5:15 p.m. shooting, two men opened fire on a 20-year-old man “in the 7700 block of South Union Avenue.”

SNIP

Do you notice a trend here? The Windy City is out of control and the mayor is blaming guns, racism, or Trump. He never blames the criminals or let the police do their work.

Therefore, I would not be shocked if the Democrats decide that Chicago is unsafe to bring in thousands of delegates. Honestly, it is.

Recreate 68 (on steroids) and blame it on Trump. Low info ‘RATs will believe it.

That won't happen, for many different reason, not the least of which are the following facts 1) Richard Daley has been dead for many decades 2) the police department is depleted 3)police no longer have nightsticks 4) and IF they still had them, they would NOT be allowed to use them and THAT is just for starters!

OTOH...I fully expect that there WILL be full on protests/riots by the usual suspects.

” Democrats decide that Chicago is unsafe”
You can’t make this stuff up!
Too many democrats in Chicago, causes it to be unsafe. If democrats stopped shooting people, gun crime would drop over 95%.
I’m so looking forward to the 2024 Nutjob Convention.

That’s what need now, but places such as NYC and Chicago make the cops’ jobs very difficult, tying their hands, for most things; not to mention the no bail stuff and NO real punishments handed out in many instances.

The Biden campaign doesn't want to debate.

Now let's see if the DNC tries to cancel their nominating convention and declare Biden their nominee by acclimation.

Then they will jail President Trump, and that's how a dictator is born.

All hail Generalissimo Biden, may he live forever!
