And note that Chicago has recently added 200 police to the downtown tourist area. They are apparently powerless.
They are afraid to arrest anybody and cant shoot anybody. In any event the only people in danger or prosecution would be...the police!
So they are only there for show and a paycheck.
Good men nowadays do nothing.
That is because America, the country you once knew, has ALREADY fallen. Even a president cant fight it. The totalitarians already rule.
If good men did anything about it, theyd be thrown in jail. Its the Marxists/Fascists who are in power.
Much less of a chance of convictibg them of real crimes.
Da chickens be coming home to roost, eh?
The Gold Coast Liberals voted for this mayor and governor.
Now they have been fleeing the city in droves.
Illinois second-worst state for flight of well-off millenials - Quicktake

August 10, 2020 6
A recent study by SmartAsset took a look at where well-off millennials are moving to and from. Specifically, they looked at individuals younger than age 35 with adjusted gross incomes of at least $100,000.
New York, Illinois and Massachusetts, in that order, were worst off for net loss of that group, they found. The study was based on IRS data between 2017 and 2018.
The three biggest winners were Washington, Colorado and Texas.
Their full study is here.

Throwing bricks now need an ambo for an injured PO hit with a brick
Theyre throwing bottles and fireworks from the south alley
A minivan tried to hit a PO and fled,
Thanks for a post that finally admits this.
It won’t matter if “Trump wins.” THEY have already won and are in power, absolutely.
Top Chicago prosecutor Kim Foxx’s office has dismissed more than 25,000 felony cases - including murders, shootings, sexual assaults and Jussie Smollett’s ‘hoax’ attack!

So no bad guys/gals are in jail in Chicago. They are out looting, shooting and killing other blacks.

Just watched a live stream of a black guy putting a bunch of looted stuff into an Escalade and driving off in it.
Was he wearing his mask?

The Siege of Chicago continues.

Lightfoot, speaking with @GovPritzker: “We both believe this is not an incident that requires the National Guard. We do not need federal troops in Chicago. Period. Full stop...”
Dear Mr. Trump,
How would like like to pick up all the electoral votes in IL?
Simple: 10th mountain division setting securing perimeters around downtown and all shopping areas - with shoot-to-kill orders for curfew violators until there is a 30 day no-homicide limit. And bivouac at the Mayor’s office.
Oh, think that would make the President look bad? Frankly, it looks worse than that NOW.
What have got to lose?
just my $0.02.
