Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.

Expect no retraction or apology. This what they do.

New wording to get out of prosecuting! Incompetency at the Helm! POS!
Mutual combatants, I like the sound of that. Lori Lightfoot announces the Mutual Combatant Zone at Soldier Field.

Come one, come all, fun for all ages at the newly remodeled Soldier Field. All seats safely behind bullet proof glass. Come cheer your team on.

It is almost inevitable that at least one of these five will be arrested again, after having killed an innocent bystander in the next shootout. Will Kim Foxx then be charged with aiding and abetting? How else can this decision be described? The next murder is on you, Kim.

Did the people or the fixed voting machines vote for Foxx?
I place my wager on the voting machines.
I heard this was captured on video. So there’s no crime in discharging a handgun in the city? Clearly there has to be something they can be charged with if it was caught on video.

Mutual combatants.
this is how the regime overthrows countries all over the world. use existing populations as terrorists!
By this logic, anybody who uses force to lawfully protect themselves or others against violence by aggressors will not be given the protection of law or courts.
It all depends on where your skin color and/or gender identity is on the intersectional hierarchy.
Insane, Madness, Chicago prosecutors saying this is ok to do. Chicago is a total sewer and not a place where civilized people desire to live in.
Talk about becoming Worse than Detroit on roller skates willingly.
Gang shootouts are ok now, but God forbid a Cop tries to make some extra income to support his family.
