The Chicago Air and Water show is the Saturday and Sunday before the DNC convention starts. It’s going to be a fun time in the city!

That's NOT what they'll do; you obviously have NO idea what these morons shall do and have done before!

When Trump was campaigning for president, the first time, he was going to speak at the University of Chicago.

It was cancelled because many hundreds of protesters march on the building and a few hundred of them went into the building and all HELL broke out inside and outside! LOOK IT UP!

And IF, for one second, you don't believe that Antifa, BLM, and other lefties don't "train" beforehand, you have the IQ of a slug.

In '68, as I clearly stated up thread, I SAW and HEARD the "training" that was going on. Yet when the filthy rabble began doing what they were doing, to make the Chicago police hit them, try to stop the riot, the newscasters ALL claimed that it was "SPONTANEOUS". That was a crock...they screamed the same slogans and words that I had been eyewitness of. They threw plastic bags fulled with urine and/or feces, which I had SEEN them rehearsing doing in Central Park!

This SCUM don't "cry and wet their pants"; THEY THROW THINGS, MARCH, CHANT STUPID SLOGANS, AND NOW, SHOOT AND HIT PEOPLE WITH THINGS!

LESS THAN NOTHING WILL BE DONE TO THEM!

“you have the IQ of a slug.”

OK, then, slug.

So when your mighty antifa fascists came around here in the spring of 2020, they were beaten, kicked and run over by trucks, slug. Then the cops arrested the antifa. And they cried and ran away, slug.

Maybe your 10-foot-tall Rambo antifa forgot to get trained, slug.

Oh, I am very much aware of what is going on in Chicago!

I am offering the Chicago “Management Team” some sage advice; they won’t take it, Chicago will burn, and in November the dumbass “Democrat Management Team” will be re-elected.

Go figure?

"MY" Anti-fa?

Your reading comprehension level is shockingly low and your assumption are quite deranged.

Antifa came to WHERE, where the cops arrested them and trucks ran them over? It wasn't Chicago!

I wrote about what happened in Chicago, at the Dem Convention in 1968, I've written about the training that was done, I wrote about what happened IN CHICAGO, when Trump was scheduled to appear at the U of C, and the prospect of what will/wont happen this coming August; all of which is pertinent to the topic of THIS thread!

Sadly, you don't understand any of this; not what I have posted, nor the fact that yes, protests of ALL kinds, today, ARE done by subhumans who yes, are taught/trained what to do, what to chant, and often times are handed out PREPRINTED SIGNS to wave.

And there is an armed branch of Antifa that TRAINS. Haven't you seen the videos/thread, posted here, for years now?

I suggest that you at least attempt to engage your brain, before emotionally posting patently ridiculous tripe and invalid smears!

I doubt Joe Biden is going to show up in Chicago. He’ll make his speech at the White House. Then they’ll show his video at the convention in Chicago.

You aren't "offering" ANYTHING at all to the Chicago Management team; YOU'RE POSTING A COMMENT OF FREE REPUBLIC!

The mayor is an incompetent doofus.

Those planning this presidential convention aren't any better.

Calling out the Chicago National Guard might be of some help in safeguarding the nominee and those attending, IF they were allowed to do something, but they can't make arrests. And Pritzger, the obese, brain dead governor, isn't going to be of any help either.

I don't think that that is legal.But then, it's Biden, who can't walk, can't talk, and IS the unopposed Dem nominee anyway.

We'll just have to wait and see how it all unfolds.

And NO, the VEEP, Kamala Harris, can NOT accept the nomination FOR Biden!

She can't!

I told you that already; it is NOT LEGAL; it would INVALIDATE Biden's nomination!

Democrat protesters could burn the city down and they’d get a pass... just like they did with the over 500 riots they had during the covid pandemic. And the press would stand in front of burning buildings and say the ‘protest was peaceful’...

This isn’t our first rodeo...

Gosh. I sure hope no one shows up undercover and pushes too far on the burning and destruction. I doubt that the FBI would do such a thing. But perhaps other enterprising people will show up and make the protesters look especially bad. While the cops do nothing.

Not really!

It's the electors who can do that, but that would only happen AT the convention!

The 1968 protests didn't happen like people think.

The protests were done out of grant park. The police had a large presence there.
The Rat Convention was at the International Amphitheater...miles away.
The protesters never got anywhere near the convention.

While the United Center area may be better than so-so, the neighborhoods surrounding the United Center neighborhood have an income lower than 97% of America.
I'm guessing the protesters maybe be, er, um, “put upon” by some.
I ain't sayin, I'm just sayin.

The Chicago cops of today ain't the same as then.

I don't go into that city anymore.
The areas that used to be safe are no longer safe.
It should be interesting.
