United States Postal workers who deliver mail in some of Chicago’s more violent neighborhoods are threatening to halt their services after a mail carrier was shot in the city’s South Side earlier this month.
The carrier, a 24-year-old woman, was left critically and injured after being shot multiple times at 91st Street and Ellis Avenue while delivering mail on September 10. Police said the worker did not appear to be the target and had been caught in the crossfire during a drive-by.
Chicago’s WSL-TV reported that she was the second mail carrier wounded by gunfire on that route. Another mail carrier, also caught in the middle of gunfire, was shot in March while on the job but survived.
A day after the second worker was shot, another USPS employee was hit with a paintball in Chicago’s South Side. …

Chicago...what a toddlin’ town. That is if toddling means shooting people randomly.
But it’s peaceful violence.
Bring back the Mafia.
But mandatory voting by mail is great!
So how is that mail in ballot going to work there?
mostly peaceful mail routes.
Saw THIS coming-Just in time to hold up ballot delivery….uh huhhhh
The law of unintended consequences. The Dems fought all year for mail-in ballots and strongly backed lawlessness and riots. It will be just great if Dem votes are not delivered to dumped into the river because BLM hoodlums keep shooting the mailman.
and Postal Lives Matter......well maybe not Newman
Lickety split a federal judge will order the use of Kevlar envelopes on all ballots.

Felons prop up the power of white liberal 'elites', so on one level folks in Chicago are lucky... if they were in Florida the shooters of these postal workers would be 'targeted' with people signing them up to vote.
93% of the mail was delivered peacefully.
So remind me, why is the postal union endorsing the candidate of the party who allows this violence to go on unchecked?
I know we're not really allowed to discuss this but black people will shoot each other over the most trivial grievance. Unwanted party guests, Facebook insults, Tyrone ate the last pork chop. BLAM! Just stop killing people!
Destruction of the family is the cause. Isn’t that one of BLM’s stated goals? The “hood” is way ahead of them, with the help of “our” grandfather’s Democratic Party.
I thought that getting shot on the job was the definition of “going Postal”?
>>But it’s peaceful violence.<<
Mostly.
