Jesse Jackson: Chicago Riot ‘Humiliating… Our Martyrs Cry Together in Shame’
Breitbart ^ | 10 Aug 2020 | JOSHUA CAPLAN

Posted on 08/10/2020 4:00:54 PM PDT by Hojczyk

Left-wing activist Rev. Jesse Jackson decried widespread looting in the Democrat-run city of Chicago Monday morning, calling it “humiliating, embarrassing, and morally wrong.” “This act of pillaging, robbing & looting in Chicago was humiliating, embarrassing & morally wrong,” Jackson wrote on social media. “It must not be associated with our quest for social justice and equality. #DrKing, #MedgarEvers & , our martyrs, cry together in shame.” Hundreds of people descended on downtown Chicago overnight after a police shooting on the city’s South Side, with vandals smashing the windows of dozens of businesses and making off with merchandise, cash machines, and anything else they could carry, authorities said.

On that one description: “Humiliating”, I have to agree with Jesse. As a black person, I am once again embarrassed to see scores of young black people caught in the acting of stealing and property damage. They descended on that part of town like
frenzied locusts, once again, confirming all the worst stereotypes about black people. No one at all is surprised.

Some of the same looters will express rage and faux shock that most employers try not to hire anyone from this demograph if they don’t absolutely have to. We have gone about 40 years backward. Most of this began in 2007 under Barrack Obama. He set the standard of how police should be viewed and casually disrespected.

Polling must be disastrous.

That's the answer.

In the 1950’s, Downtown Detroit was a bustling, vibrant place. The current bunch of screwed up Illinois Democrats are certainly capable of doing the same thing to Chicago that happened to Detroit.

Sorry Jess, too late to disassociate. You race hustlers created this mess, time to own it, and do something about it.

His prodigies. His chilrun’. His hopes and fears, all rolled up in one package.

What did he get during the riots? besides old and irrelevant-er.

I realized that. But time has passed old Jesse by. I was naming today’s ‘martyrs’.

I tend to agree with you. He’s an old man and some part of him gets it.

There’s gotta be a white supremacist in that crowd somewhere to blame this on.

Were he and the mayor holed up together for the past three weeks and just emerged? Were they in the DEEP SLEEP? Better to say nothing than be seen as the fools they are for not speaking out months ago!

The rioters are just honoring the life of George Floyd, a felon, burglar, dope addict.

And the remaining whites (and good blacks) will shrug their shoulders and go about their business pull up stakes and leave.

I guess one man’s “martyr” is another man’s former Skittles aficionado.

Jesse Jackson had a baby mama:

Jesse Jackson’s Ex-Mistress Has No Regrets
By ABC News
January 5, 2006, 9:35 PM

Aug. 17, 2001 — In her first television interview, a woman who had a four-year affair with the Rev. Jesse Jackson calls their daughter her “miracle baby” and expresses no regrets over her relationship with the civil rights leader.

“I’m convinced she is supposed to be here, and I am supposed to be her mom,” Karin Stanford says of her daughter, Ashley. “And I’m very proud of that.”

Stanford tells ABCNEWS’ Connie Chung that since the affair became public, her relationship with Jackson has been strained. He has only seen Ashley once in the last seven months, she says.

Recently, Stanford, a former Jackson aide, went to court to formalize the $4,000-a-month child support payments the former presidential candidate was already paying her. Jackson then asked her to sign a confidentiality agreement, she says. She refused.

“I was shocked,” says Stanford, 39. “I had basically kept the details of our relationship confidential. … So then to be hit with the confidentiality agreement was highly insulting to me.”

Jussie is just pissed off that HE is not the big dog, gathering in the greens and holding court for the mindless media.

Has Obama issued a statement yet? If so, I haven't heard it.

It is his state. He slept in Chicago's pews for 20 years, after all...
