Oh I think there’s more than a moderate chance of that. Not only is the Hamas wing openly letting their Jew hate out but also a whole lot of Blacks absolutely HATE the tidal wave of illegals flooding in taking up housing, jobs and public assistance that had previously been going to them, etc.

The Frankenstein coalition of Jews, Feminists, Blacks, Muslims, The alphabet people and the ultra rich is coming apart at the seams.

The difference this year would be that this time, the revolution will not be televised. In 1968 we got to watch the leftwing in all its glory via ongoing live televised coverage. There will be no such coverage this year, just brief relatively minor snippets on the evening news.

Any bets on just how selective the media will be covering the DNC convention?

To the right audience, it’ll be pay-per-view worthy.

“This administration and the people of Chicago have never and will [never] condone brutality at any time,” said Daley in response to criticism of the police force. “They will never permit a lawless, violent group of terrorists to menace the lives of millions of people; destroy the purpose of this national convention, and take over the streets of Chicago.”

Afterward, the demonstrators believed most Americans would side with them over what had happened regarding police behavior.

Didn’t happen.

Polls showed the majority supported Daley’s tactics. And many believed that the chaos in Chicago paved the way for Richard Nixon’s election two and a half months later.

It will be interesting as those democrats from 1968 are now the one’s defunding and letting it burn or letting them riot as the police stand by and do nothing. That is what is going to be very different.

The socialist organizing, now has modern communications conveniences, but it is the same ill will that did the “work” of Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Walter Cronkite, Eric Holder, SDS (students for a democratic society), “the Weathermen”, Barack Obama’s and Hillary Clinton’s teachers.

The Democrat Party’s organization of confiscation, deception, depravity, destruction, envy, greed, hate, jealousy, power, pride, rationing, and theft.

Due process for the left, but not for you.

He’s probably right and can hardly wait.

“It was like my baptism into politics, like, wow, this is kind of interesting shit going on on TV, and I know this is politics.”

...so this clown thinks politics is all about looting, burning down stores and assault.

The article mentioned Hubert H Humphrey. I recall that leftist well. He was a Minnesota politician that the media touted as having the highest IQ in DC. He was a jerk.

Chicago has more problems than the Jew haters. I talked to a Chicago transplant a few days ago and a huge problem that was never fixed is all the jobs moving out of Chicago to China leaving manufacturing districts to the drug gangs that sell dope to the ultra rich. There are many Blacks that do not like the white elites while they are jobless in the hell holes left over when the slums were created by manufacturing disappearing. When China got all the manufacturing equipment the rich got richer and the poor got poorer and crime skyrocketed. I’d be PO’d too.

I can see this whole DNC operation coming apart at the seems. It’s time to stock up on popcorn.

I predict a virtual war in the streets of Chicago.
Course this current boob of a mayor is in no way comparable to Daley.

On Friday, left-wing talk show host Bill Maher predicted that this year’s Democratic National Convention (DNC) would witness a repeat of the infamous riots that plagued the 1968 gathering.

It's just not true. The riots never got to the convention. The rioters were staged at Grant park, miles aways from the International Amphitheater, which was ringed with barbed wire and cops.
The actual riot took place on Michigan Ave, a short walk from Grant park, where the protesters stormed the hotel where most of the DNC delegates were staying.
More mayhem occurred inside the convention hall than directly outside.

I doubt it. The “demonstrations” aren’t organic. The benefactors will ensure they are stopped for the convention.

With AI and CGI the alphabet networks won’t let you see the riots.

Gotta wonder if Biden gets tossed before the convention.
