Chicago police are trying to identify the dozens of students from Simeon Career Academy who they say took part in a vandalism spree while they were supposed to be protesting guns.
Shoppers and store employees were stunned by the destruction Wednesday morning at the Walmart in Chatham Market on the South Side.
Chicago police say it started when students at neighboring Simeon Career Academy were allowed to leave the school for 17 minutes to take part in the nationwide walkout to protest guns.
Police say between 40 and 60 of those students crossed the street and trashed parts of the store, knocking over product displays, yanking items off shelves, breaking packages and stealing small items like chips and candy.

They can’t even get a free 17 minutes off without going feral.
But Walmart is there to make money off the EBT crowd, so enjoy!

No such thing as a leftist “peaceful” protest; at least I’ve never seen one in my 5+ decade life.

Sure it wasn’t “Simian Career Academy”?

Where’s the diversity - I’d wager they didn’t have even a token White boy (or girl) he;ping them destroy the store - it’s not right I tell you -in fact it’s downright racist to undertake such destruction without at least a couple White folks - why should Blacks get to have all that “fun” alone?

Just out of curiosity, aren’t schools paid out of federal funds based on the number of students in class every day?
If a school conspires to fraudulently count students who are not in class but protesting on the street as in class to fraudulently get federal funds, aren’t they committing a federal crime?

So, they have made their point. It didn’t strike a chord at all, but did give us a greater core value to arm ourselves against the mob. The police won’t be able to handle this one.

An odd name for a school. Very odd name. The Fighting Simeon’s.
