She wants retailers to have more security officers in their stores even though an armed security officer would be allowed to use force to stop an organized looting mob.

If the retailers want police to come to their stores they should probably hire the Proud Boys as security.

If the retailers want police to come to their stores they should probably offer free donuts and coffee...............................

A REAL LIVE NUTJOB!!

[SaxxonWoods]

Shop owners aren’t doing enough but if they do anything that actually stops theft they’ll go to jail, not the criminals.

Heads she wins, tails they lose.

The answer is: Get. Out.

They only way to comply with what the dingbat is asking is to BOARD IT UP AND CLOSE FOR GOOD!!

Still true to her stated form that she will only give interviews to journalists of color (i.e., white journalists need not apply) the author of the cited story is guess what?

[PGR88]

We were all waiting for her to come up with something really stupid.

None of us could imagine what it would be - but none the less, she’s done it!

Its what makes groot special.

[SMARTY]

Her ‘leadership’ has created a power vacuum in that town.

It’s basically telling citizens “You’re on your own.” However, if they actually defend themselves, they will face the ‘Rittenhouse treatment’.

How many ways does their s&^t head mayor want to have it?

[HighSierra5]

She’d have to sneak up on a glass of water.

[who_would_fardels_bear]

If they are being robbed they should say “Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice” and the Mayor will magically appear to stop the robbery.

[jimfree]

How about booby traps and store security with automatic weapons on hair trigger?

"She wants retailers to have more security officers in their stores even though an armed security officer would be allowed to use force to stop an organized looting mob."

What she wants is these stores to hire useless-as-**ts "Big Gorge" types to stand around in a $20-an-hour do-nothing job. Talk about a dog whistle, or maybe a groot whistle.

[P-Marlowe]

What the retailers need is good old fashioned Mafia protection.

[Fresh Wind]

Democrats always blame the victim.

Defend against theft and end-up like Kyle Rittenhouse?

[Leaning Right]

> She said they were not making security a priority and taking adequate measures to prevent theft. <

The mayor needs to spell out EXACTLY what she means by “adequate measures”. Otherwise, she’s just speaking more empty blame-the-victim nonsense.

Chicago retailers to dingbat mayor: see ya!

[HereInTheHeartland]

Blame the victim.
What a tone deaf idiot
