Glennon raised the stakes of the moment in broader civilizational terms: “This election in Illinois is not about the usual pedestrian issues… it’s about nothing less than whether Western civilization survives in our democratic republic of America because [the left], just on the open border alone, will destroy the country, and now they’re bringing in the jihadists, frankly, into the party.” Audio and summary linked here.Audio and summary linked here.
New Trier High School made national headlines nine years ago as a “canary in a coal mine” for political indoctrination in public schools. The canaries lived.
Among the consequences of economic growth that badly lags national averages are billions of lost revenue every year. Yet denial reigns in Illinois, fueling the vicious cycle of demand for higher taxes.
Get used to it. This is the future until you rid the state of soft on crime politicians that see the miscreants as “ funnin’ youths “ that you better not “ demonize “ as the mayor reminds us. Eventually, they will become more and more violent with property being destroyed on a larger scale and more serious injuries. It will be the summer of Floyd, yet more random and sans the big mouthed BLM millionaire cheerleading.
“Chicago police responded to both scenes, but no one was arrested, and no reports were generated.”
So it never really happened. Crime statistics in a nut shell.
Arresting them and confiscating their vehicles is the only way to stop this. Mayor Braindead and his hands off policy is killing Chicago and its neighborhoods. He has to put on his big boy pants and start acting like a leader.
