It won't just be hippies and yippies. It will be all manner of crazies who want something, including actual terrorists and their (somewhat voluntary) human shields.

Also in the mix, "teens" looking for a big payday.

And the mayor is no Daley Senior.

1968 will be the good old days.

LOL —> “...our officers are being trained in the best way possible to respond to any level of civil unrest”

They are holding group therapy sessions and working on understanding the roots of their rage. They are all being instructed to put social workers on their phone speed dial. They are being trained on the use of correct pronouns when confronting the scum. And they are being coached on how to select their own best pronouns.

If they aren’t being taught how to use billy clubs, tear gas, how to crack heads, driving MRAPs, how to handle German Shepherds, and managing fire hoses, they aren’t being taught anything useful.

Remember when America valued free speech? Not really!

Probably so - the contemporary Demoncratic Party trends more to 1984 than 1968.

Well, in a blue city this means surrender.

Fine by me. Let in the Hamas supporters and burn the place down.

“...political violence driven predominantly by the far right.”


And there’s the Tribune’s lie right in the first sentence.

even amid resurgent political violence driven predominantly by the far right.

Those Chicagoans are so smart. They can see what happens in alternate universes.

Are they implying that they expect violence from “Far Right” protesters at the Democratic Party convention?

That’s absurd.

Here’s hoping for the most miserable, divisive, chaotic convention ever for the Democrats next August.

I don’t think we’ll see the VIPs show up in person. They’ll give their speeches virtually.

The Chicago police don’t seem to be able to handle the shootings so how are they going to manage street communists with organized controllers?

I can visualize some Dem operatives paying some drug gangs to engage in shootouts in the middle of the pro-Palestinian leftists.

Enthusiasm among the hipsters would evaporate quickly.

There won’t be any “far right” violence because anyone to the right of Brandon knows better than to go to a city as dangerous as Chicago.
