Now you have lightfoot & brown hosting news conference blasting incomptetent foxx and evans for not prosecuting the black looters. Interesting that when its black folks looting downtown the fairweather libs want the ghetto mob locked up but when its mostly white hippster kids throwing fireworks & rocks at cops trying to protect Columbus statue, public property then thats “the good trouble”–and we don’t want to lockup the upper income suburban tranplant white hippster kid doing his rebel agaist daddy thing.
