Chicago Democrats

I keep seeing on Facebook that the economic carnage is not the fault of Lightfoot or Gov Fat Boy per libs because it was done in the name of "safety". That its the virus that did it. I do not understand that line of thinking nor willing to figure out where they think that is correct. Its insane.

I argue back with no luck.

They blame everyone else for everything. It’s like pre-school for them.

Read the history of Russia and China. As soon as they got control, they caused famines to eliminate areas that caused them problems. Normal Marxist protocol.

Ask your friends, “How many people have to be thrown into poverty for you to feel safe? 20 million? 30 million? 40 million? How many Black people have to be thrown in to poverty for you to feel safe?”

Well, we’ve faced many viruses deadlier than COVID, and never in the history of the United States, or even in the history of the world, have we ever shut down the entire economy over a virus.

So it can’t be argued that it was necessary to do this because of a virus, since it has never been done, and the results we see aren’t arguably any better than results we’ve had with other viruses where we didn’t shut everything down. It was an experiment, plain and simple, an experiment cooked up by leftie politicians with all of us as the human test subjects.

“How many Black people have to be thrown in to poverty for you to feel safe?””

Well, the funny thing is, they are actually throwing themselves into poverty as well. I work in Chicago property management, manage plenty of higher end properties, and these people aren’t keeping up with their rent that well. They can’t be evicted right now, but that debt isn’t going to disappear and I have a feeling all these ninnies are not prepared for tens of thousands of dollars of debt following them around in the future.

Going to be a lot of young leftie professionals with hefty bankruptcies on their records thanks to their leftie politicians. Then they won’t be able to buy a house or rent an apartment. They’ll be stuck living in mom’s basement again, if they are lucky.

Kamala Harris sponsored a Senate bill that would that would force funding public schools to allow biologically male athletes who identify as transgender on girls’ sports teams. . In March 2019, Harris cosponsored the Equality Act, which would amend the Civil Rights Act of 1964 . Among other things, the bill would force public schools to expand female athletic teams to include biological males who identify as transgender girls,..Also did this http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3877896/posts and this http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3880192/posts

HERE’S HOW THEY TREAT CONSERVATIVE CONGRESSIONAL DEMOCRATS WHO DONT SUPPORT STUFF LIKE THIS

And why there is no such thing as a Conservative Dem in Congress an example is Illinois 3rd district

Todays Democrats weren’t happy with his funding votes against abortion and on being the only congressional democrat to vote NO on allowing men to to call themselves a women and compete with women in college sports.
Those who live in Chicago already voted at their local public library. But in the reshaped 3rd Congressional district Daniel Lipinski lost because of redistricting. Of a district which had previously included adjacent Chicago city wards to his 23rd.

That was a district where those city wards were predominatly composed of traditional value family oriented Catholic/Christian communities opposed to funding such things as abortion and LGBT activities rather that dealt exclusively with city issues such as a subway L service and the Stevenson Expressway. Those Wards were reliable William O Lipinski supporters of Dan’s father. But since most had areas with hispanic last names those areas were redistricted and assigned to the Gutieriez’s district. Those results are posted below which actually tear up the concept of a neighborhood and pit people against each other by using division.In some of those wards areas of city blocks which were zoned exclusively for single family dwellings residents suddenly found their neighborhood having houses torn down and being replaced with multiple apartments with the units not required to furnish parking facilities and many renters were illegals. Much of which fit the plans for the suburbs

COULD THIS BE WHY CHICAGOANS ARE SEEING RATS
50 year Alderman Burke who is under federal charges for corruption ward is an example. Burke’s ward ,14th, needed remapping . The 14th was originally known as “Back of The Yards” Once the home of the famous Chicago Stock Yards where most food processors along with employee demographics have since relocated. It was a compact area almost 15 plus city blocks square area composed mostly of single and 2 story frame and brick family dwellings mixed with scattered brick apartment units. Because of the construction, insurance rates varied and became known as the condemned as “redlining”. When the democrats also warily supported by the Bush 2 administration came up with the no 20% down mortgage removed. Areas in the ward dramatically changed in demographics. Many of those dwellings sold under those conditions went into disrepair or default.

Originally his ward headquarters and palace was on 51st street just west of Damen Avenue. Today’s palace is just off of Pulaski Road near the Madam Curie high school just off of Archer Avenue miles away.

His ward now consists of areas carved from parts of the 12th (known as Mc Kinley Park and Brighton Park) and parts of the 23rd (known as Archer Heights Garfield Ridge and Clearing) wards Miles from the original 14th

That In a former section of the 23rd ward now the 14th ward in the Midway airport area, 2 patrons in a local bar along Archer avenue were heard complaining about rats in their garbage. They felt it was because of the delay in garbage collection. Also heard the same beef about street snow removal. It has also played hell on zoning and because of the disruption of jurisdictions with the administration of city services such as streets and sanitation which the alderman (salary $120.000 plus allocations on local projects) do oversee and have input over.

By.employing this concept of remapping are residents are being denied the representation they should have ?

Nobody I know has left the city. But then again, Chicago is not New York.

And yet 200,000 Covid deaths are all Trump's fault even though the experts were predicting in excess of two million.

Bill Gates was actually on Fox earlier this week (a few minutes before Tucker Carlson's hour) spouting that Trump's travel ban only made it worse.

I though Bill Gates was a college drop-out. Did he go back and get a degree in epidemiology when we weren't paying attention?
