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.
What if the parents are among the thugs? Who talks to them?
The mayor just announced how to circumvent the curfew: “Parents: talk to your children about their plans, and help them identify a safe place where they can go if they get separated from the group and a safe route home.” In other words, just say you were separated from an adult and meet your friends.
Outsource public order to parents who can’t get their children to go to school? How many “youngsters” actually have parentS?
Is he joking? Mostly one parent households, and the moms are out partying harder than the kids! Plus he is down about 2,000 to 3,000 officers, and he does not want to pay them overtime. His comments are just to encourage the naive to come down there and mix it up with the silly kids.
Baby mama will be with a new daddy . No time to worry about their children!!
Will the authorities be checking the papers of those they are profiling as being under the age of 18. I’m outraged.
Just kids being silly.
