Chicago Looting, Violence Gives More Reasons to Stay Out of Chicago

Our only trips to Chicago have been to airports, which, so far, are untouched by rioting and looting.

A media outlet called Block Club has a comprehensive piece today.

Unlike Portland, where ideology seems to be driving the violence, in Chicago pure greed seems to be the motivator.

Part of the problem, focused on by the Chicago Tribune today, is Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx dismissal of cases involving looting.

The Tribune story on the rioting and looting reports:

More than 100 people were arrested as of 9 a.m., according to Chicago Police Superintendent David Brown. Thirteen officers were injured during the unrest, including a sergeant who was hit by a bottle. A civilian and private security guard were shot and wounded.

I won’t be the only one who wonders how many Foxx will refuse to prosecute.

Mayor Lori Lightfoot said,

“What occurred in our downtown and surrounding communities was abject criminal behavior, pure and simple,” Mayor Lori Lightfoot said. “And there cannot be any excuse for it. Period.”

Chicago Looting, Violence Gives More Reasons to Stay Out of Chicago — 27 Comments

  1. At least Beetlejuice isn’t calling this a “peaceful protest” now.

    Liars out there are claiming that this was a child. It was not. Burn Loot Murder supporters are using this as an excuse to commit more crime because nobody seems to try to put a stop to it. Send in the troops. If the people involved cannot be civil, they can get civil war.

  2. The Chicago police can handle this,no problem, the only thing stopping them is the midget mayor won’t let them use the force necessary.

    And then you have the George Soros
    Cook county states attorney.

    Taxpayers, property and business owners just keep taking it…

  3. Light foot says she does not want federal help. Too bad. Chicago will lose tourists, conventions, business and more if drastic action not taken.

    US Federal troops need to be deployed to Chicago and surroundings with full armor, humvees, tanks, etc. Cook County State Attorney needs to be impeached for at least incompetence. Looters, rioters, anarchists, arsonists, terrorists caught need to be arrested by US troops and/or police and dispatched immediately to Gitmo to await trial and further jailing there when found guilty.

    Additionally, the US needs sufficient and intelligent voters to select Trump and reject the dufus senile dementia Joe Biden and whatever will be his totally unqualified vp pick. If dufus Biden elected, fully expect that Democrats will take steps to export Chicago mayhem to suburbs and towns near and far in northern Illinois.

  4. Leftfoot orders cops to chase all the White people off the
    beaches on the North side while she gives the green light to her BLM
    brothers and sisters to loot, pillage and attack police on the Mag Mile yet again.
    And of course Foxx will dismiss all charges of those arrested.

    Yes, Leftfoot and Foxx are down with the struggle to run Whitey out of Chicago at all costs,
    this fact has never been more shockingly transparent.

    Got guns ?
    It’s going to get much worse so prepare NOW to defend all that you love and cherish.

  5. Stupidity, corruption, do nothings on city/state payrolls, malfeasance in every nook and cranny, I could go on…

  6. She’s doing a Press Conference and blaming the Virus, the Economy—every group and reason but her own office letting arrested people go.

    She’s a fraud, the Mayor’s called her out, and Foxx answers only to George Soros and his million dollar donation.

    Expect more of this lawlessness while Foxx is in office.

    Please send in Federal Troops.

  7. You know, look at a map, the governors 2 mansions on north Astor aren’t very far from the lootings of last night.

    I bet he has plenty of protection.

  8. Why no fence/roadblocks to stop the terrorists from the far south side?

  9. From 16 July

    The White House press secretary, Kayleigh McEnany, criticized Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot on Thursday, described her as “derelict” when it comes to dealing with crime.

    “The derelict mayor of Chicago should step up and ask for help, because she’s doing a very poor job of securing her streets,” McEnany said.

    Lightfoot came back with a biting response: “Hey, Karen. Watch your mouth.”

    Derelect is being nice *

  10. The should just start calling it “Maleficent Mile” at this point.

  11. I see her new picked PoPo man was upfront and center too…

    like her no where to be found, waiting for the words “crime is down to come out of him next”…

  12. Sadly this might be the kind of wake up call some people need.

    No way to try and call these people protesters.

    These are the same people from June.

    This time they just didn’t have a crowd of woke idiots to hide behind.

  13. The violence, murders, robberies, lootings, wildings and mobs have been ongoing in Streeterville, River North, Gold Coast, Loop, Navy Pier, Taste of Chicago, South Loop, etc., dating back to Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley (2009, if not earlier) and Police Superintendent Jody Weiss. 😮

    Because of flash mobs in Summer 2011, Rahm Emanuel and Gary McCarthy closed North Avenue Beach. ☹️

    Second City Cop and CWB Chicago mention the various crimes, 2009 onwards. 😮

  14. Back in 2011, a large group of young people stormed the Wisconsin State Fair and hurt a number of people. They were also jumping on hoods and roofs of cars in the parking lots.

  15. Obviously the only answer is to pray the Catholic Holy Rosary only Mary the Mother of God can inhibit this horrible wicked behaviour.

    The answers are not in politics but letting God fight the battles for you.

    If gays and other wicked groups are offended by this comment let it be known fair is fair I am offended by whoever rejects this common sense solution!

  16. 12 white girls and 2 Asian girls raped, but nothing in the MSM!
