FDR freed government from the Law ... it was inevitable that the government would then view the people as the objects of its power and prestige. A free people benefit from a government bound by strong chains. A free government benefits by the chains it imposes on the people. Ive sometimes noted that the need for monuments to national glory in DC has risen in direct proportion to Arbitrary government.

Remember. When the SHTF this is what the police will be doing, protecting the corrupt pols. The one’s that show up, that is.

Sure hope nobody calls in one of those swatting hoaxes to her neighborhood, that would probably cause all kind of chaos.

That block should become ground zero for the Chicago revolution.
To: Red Badger
Protesting to demand redress of grievances from your elected officials is the most clear-cut of all cases of “protected speech” one could possibly imagine.
If they get away with blocking that, then there is no “freedom of speech” to speak of.

War is peace.
Freedom is slavery.

Lori Lightweight’s special lesbian superpowers can’t stop the mobs. But defunding the police and stricter gun control are good ideas.

In addition to this slice of hypocrisy, both Shortshanks and the Ballerina (Daley Jr and Rahm) still receive round the clock police protection from the soon to be bankrupt City of Chicago. Daley Jr hasnt been mayor for close to 10 years. Tell me any other city in the USA that provides police protection for its former mayors.
