“There will never be a vaccine for Africanization”
Sad but true.
Of the six, how many had CV-19?
The new physical distancing standard of 6 feet in Chicago and the wearing of masks has and three exceptions:
Exception 1: On Lori Lightfoot’s front lawn and front porch the physical distancing standard does not apply and masks are not required. Spitting is also allowed but only onto the front door knob.
Exception 2: In city hall and on the grounds of city hall the physical distancing standard does not apply and masks are not required. Spitting is also allowed but only onto the Mayor Lightfoot’s desk and in her office.
Exception 3: A felon in possession of an firearm does not have to follow physical distancing requirement and can wear a mask or not wear a mask while ignoring actual laws rather than dictatorial edicts.
Wow - Roseland Community Hospital - the worst in the city. If you were not DOA - Roseland will finish the job. Can’t believe they are still open.
LOL, the slow ones are all gone. A unique form of natural selection.
Chicago is a large metropolitan area controlled by democrats. No surprise here!
I still think they need better gun control. Gotta improve their aim. Thirty-two wounded is deplorable. They should have fatally shot at least half of them.
It is good to see things getting back to normal in Chicago...
It’s just the Hutu vs. Tutsi in Chitcago. Nothing to see here.
