It is Feb in Chicago. Just shut off all oil into the city for 36 hours. Shut it off.
Call it blue flu.

The same strategy worked on the cigarette companies. Government collected big fines. The left wants to bust out the oil companies.
I watched a very interesting documentary about cigs on one of the streaming services. It was about biologist hired by a cig company to find a way to make cigs less addictive. By accident the biologist found that by rearranging the ingredients in cigs, he made them 10 times more addictive. After reporting the results to a meeting of execs, they gave him a standing ovation.

Yep. Close down all the gas stations and shut off the natural gas.

Prove to a Chicago jury? No problem.

I believe you are right. There are NO countervailing forces to arrest the growth of lawfare. The trend is clearly more and more of this extra-legal abuse.
Yup. We have resisted turning the country into a kleptocracy like India or most Middle Eastern countries to this point in our history. But without a strong sense of Christian charity and morality pushing back (and there isn't anymore), that's where we are headed at a rapid clip. Everything will become "pay to play."

Gas companies should respond by refusing to see any gas in Chicago.

“But without a strong sense of Christian charity and morality pushing back (and there isn’t anymore), that’s where we are headed at a rapid clip.”
Exactly right. That is the single BIGGEST difference from our founding through the 1950s or 1960s. The numbers of people who believe in God or are part of a church are rapidly dwindling. The church response to those dwindling congregations? Adopt more “liberation theology” i.e., hardcore marxism.
And the doom loop accelerates.

HAHAHAHA.
“Don’t look at the invasion of illegal aliens and the empty coffers of the city. SQUIRREL!!! We’ll get those evil oil companies to fill the coffers and pay off the NGOs giving the illegal invaders free stuff.”
And the blacks who voted for the sanctuary status will clap and re-elect fauxhawk Johnson.

Why don’t they sue everyone that uses fossil fuels like their citizens do?
To: ChicagoConservative27
As a result, the city says, climate mitigation and response projects in low-income communities have cost it nearly $200 million. Not their fault if Chi Town chooses to waste money on an imaginary problem. I do hope all these companies suspend all deliveries of their products to Ill annoy.
