Downtown workers may experience casual Friday and casual Monday later this month when the NATO summit arrives. Workers at some Chicago office towers are being encouraged to dress down to avoid being targeted by protesters during the meeting of world leaders May 20 and 21. Safety procedures in some high-rises include the recommendation that employees set aside suits, ties and anything with corporate logos.

I would go full court business with a vest and perhaps even a top hat, hee hee.

Because to do otherwise would be “just asking for it”.

Somehow the “slut walk” message does not apply to liberal extremist hate groups.

[TurboZamboni]

incognito would be dreadlocks, a Che shirt,and bongo drums.

[Aevery_Freeman]

Suit and sidearm.

[cripplecreek]

If you can’t be armed, be invisible?

Kinda like a helpless bunny.

[beethovenfan]

Will the Won be wearing his Mao jacket?

Black pants and black hoodie, probably not a good
idea either.

[rightwingintelligentsia]

Maybe all the women should wear burqas, so as not to offend any potential Muslim protesters.

Dang, and I just sent out my spats to be dry cleaned.

Wouldn’t it be grand if the suited workers were armed and had a cadre of armed shotgun bearing private guards accompanying them on their trek to work?

[JimRed]

Dress normally, wear a concealed carry weapon with a caliber starting with the number 4...then react appropriately to any assault.

IOW, make my day, hippie scum!

Dressing down reduces the contrast between a legitimate occupant of a building, and someone unauthorized to be there.

It also means that the personnel serving as guards will be presented with unfamiliar dress matched with a familiar ID card or badge.

[TigersEye]

Serfs.

[TurboZamboni]

this is Chicago. only the politically connected are allowed to legally carry.

[FreedomPoster]

LOL, and spot on.

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

And everyone else can only use their handgun inside their house.

If you do too good a job of blending in with the anarchists, I bet you’ll have trouble getting past your own building’s security.
