No need for haunted houses in Chicago on Halloween. It’s plenty scary just to walk to your car.
I approve when democrats are liquidated by their own destructive policies. More of it please. /spit
Black Lives Matter
Republicans will never win in Illinois with all these perpetual Dem voters being added to the rolls every day.
Who are we to judge how these people choose to live?
Chicago origin Obama on the Democrat campaign trail...propagated that Republicans don’t want to help... let’s see how his line will hold up.
Tonight, lots of kids in Chicago will be going out trick or treating. How many of them will be killed in shootings?
Republicans DON’T WANT TO WIN in Illinois, the GOP is nothing more than a Gang Of P—-ies, and has been for a number of years.
The Woodlawn area is just south of University of Chicago. It has been a dangerous area as long as I can remember. No reason for tourists to visit the Woodlawn area (unless it is to visit Oak Lawn Cemetery where Jesse Owens, Jack Guzik, Cap Anson, Judge Landis and other luminaries are buried). Pols like Beetlejuice don’t give a damn, neither does the corrupt governor.
Seriously, the Pritzker family is corrupt and go back to fraud in several banking crises. But they keep electing corrupt people like him (Big Jim Thompson is also buried at Oak Lawn).
She wants a raise for doing a good job killing her own kind. The black community overlooks this because shes a women of color, enjoy
35 people shot (again, this is just an AVERAGE weekend in Chi-town..), but hey, NEVERMIND people!!!
DEMOCRACY is in PERIL! Paul Pelosi was ATTACKED by his gay prostitute… err, umm, we mean MAGA, Q-Anon, right-wing, Republican guy with a hit list we just made up!…
EVERY weekend, and some weekdays, is like a full on school shooting.
Leftist democrats don’t give a $#1t, as they can’t milk it for gun control...
Only 5 dead out of 35 shot.
The thugs must not use 9mm ammo. I’ve been told by someone in very high authority that a 9mm will blow the lungs out.
