Chicago’s 2020 unrest: A Tribune investigation documents the scope of the damage and its lingering impact on neighborhoods, businesses – Chicago Tribune*
An employee at Fresh Kickz clothing store in Little Village said she and a co-worker, both pregnant at the time, hid in a bathroom from looters while her manager took cover in a storage room. “It was a little bit scary. Anything could have happened to us.”
The Tribune story completely ignored a much bigger disaster – government imposed lockdowns. The authoritarians arbitrarily decided which businesses could stay open and which had to close, all in the name of “science”. These lockdowns caused 10X to 100X the damage of the BLM riots.

Who works retail? Primarily women, minority women, and members of the LGBTQ community. When you loot stores, you risk the physical, mental, and financial well-being of marginalized groups.
In other words, looters are misogynistic racists.

They have insurance, right? Property damage isn’t violence. It’s restorative justice.
And why did it take the Tribune a full year to get around to these stories?
I didn’t even read the article. I refuse to feed the beast and give money to people that think I’m evil and want me dead.
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
