Following New York’s example, pass an ex post facto law, then use it with the help of a corrupt AG and judge to seize the assets of the company.

In most civil cases, the two sides are advised not to contact each other and keep your mouth shut and do not engage in any sort of business agreement with the other party after the lawsuit has been filed.

I think the Oil Companies should follow that logic and stop selling fossil fuels to Chicago until this issue is settled.

Oil companies must be punished! So, I propose that all oil and gas deliveries to Chicago are to be stopped from now on.

“lawsuit provides a cover for payoffs they are demanding.” ... otherwise known as extortion.

The Good People of Illinois should be suing ‘Chicagostan’ for all that’s wrong with their state!

Unfortunately, they don’t have to prove anything. All they need to do is find the right jury. And given this is Chicago, that shouldn’t be hard.

All six companies should immediately cease all deliveries of their products into the city of Chicago.

Then sit back and watch the fun.

Senator Everett Dirksen predicted things like this would be the consequences of the USSC ruling Reynolds v. Sims.

The City is swimming in a cesspool of violent crime, bankrupt in every respect and this is what these idiots spend time and money on.

When you turn your law schools into activist factories, this is what you get. I suspect all of this is going to get much, much worse in the coming years as many of these activist lawyers turn into hyper-activist judges.

The oil companies should shut down every gas station they are affiliated with and refuse delivery to stations not owned by the companies. Let’s see how Shitcago would like that!

Isn't it nice to have a government that cares about you?

Wouldn’t the citizens of sChitcago welcome a little ‘climate change’? The wind and winter cold to get blamed on the oi companies too. This is just shakedown in disguise-its what grifter Commie Rats do best.
