I thought we should take a thorough look at and review of these “peaceful protests” as the Dem media call them. Perhaps as Preppers we can gain some knowledge and insight that will help us in the months ahead. As Rellgar and many others have noted, there is more chaos and fighting coming.
CHICAGO
“When downtown is in lockdown, our neighborhoods are next,” Lopez warned during the call, adding, “We’re seeing this destruction … We have seen where, in other cities, this has gone on for days; and we need to come up with a better plan for days, at least for the next five days, to try and stabilize our communities.”
He added that some parts of the Back of the Yards — where leftist radical Saul Alinsky worked in the 30s and 40s — and Brighton Park neighborhoods looked like a “virtual war zone” after the rioters passed through.
Lopez added that he was not blaming the Chicago Police for not being able to prevent the looting, but lamented: “Half our neighborhoods are already obliterated. It’s too late.”
Lopez also worried that the rioters would turn from the businesses to the citizens: “Once they’re done looting and rioting, and whatever’s going to happen tonight, God help us, what happens when they start going after residents? Going into the neighborhoods? Once they start trying to break down people’s doors if they think they’ve got something.”
He noted that there were “gang-bangers with AK-47s walking around right now, just waiting to settle some scores,” and they could use the chaos as cover.“
The mayor did not take this kindly. She responded...
“I think you’re 100% full of ****, is what I think,” Lightfoot snapped.
The reply set the alderman off, and he shot back, “No offense — **** you, then. Who are you to tell me I’m full of ****? Maybe you should come out and see what’s going on.”
Does anyone think other mayors nationwide would make it their goal to protect citizens and communities or to protect businesses?
