twocatsmac Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Black lives matter made me do it! About 100 people gathered outside the Central District station on Monday evening in a demonstration organized by Black Lives Matter Chicago. Several protesters held a banner that read, “Our futures have been looted from us ... loot back.” 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Portland's civic leaders. Like Washington's mayor who refused him the use of police. They would rather let lootings continue than see Donald Trump get credit for dealing with the lootings. Ah, that's why 100 arrests were made, thanks for the explanation. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Ask not what your country can do for thee, for just take from them that have and that what you covet" Seems to me that someone should start building an Ark again......

Those who have been arrested will have information on how they came to be at the incident. And the arresting authorities will still be unable to offer any evidence that they are members of any centrally organized Antifa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wise decision. Troops just aggravate the situation. Only localized criminality around Lincoln Park. Mayor Lori Lightfoot has already declared lockdown for foreseen days and deployed heavy police presence in downtown Chicago until further notice. Right to ignore Trump's political posturing to cast blame on the Dem mayor. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Trump fans are desperate to lump everyone into the same boat but as has been documented many, many times, the protest are overwhelmingly peaceful and are hijacked (mainly at night) but lawless looters. Both the Chicago mayor and the Chicago police understand this and unlike Trump fans, are able to distinguish between the two. How hard can it be to realise we are talking about two very different and seperate things? For gods sake, the social media call that went out specifically said 'lets go looting' not 'lets go protesting and then maybe a bit of looting afterwards'. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody is going to call the cops when their kid comes home with a new flat screen and has no job. There is only so long the black community can pretend they don't know that the person doing this shares their house. You are only as good as the company you keep. I can imagine a family sitting around watching their new 70" screen and suddenly on the news there is a boy that likes just like junior, wearing his gang colors, with a mask, carrying away a 70" flatscreen TV. Wonder who that could be? Remember ghettos aren't big places and people know what's up. People should be charged for aiding and abetting. There needs to be criminal actions against people that harbor fugitives. Your post seems to be written under the assumption blacks are the only race to have ever looted something. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Black lives matter group organised the previous peaceful and not so peaceful protests and also last nights looting . Its the same group , BLM, , or are you suggesting that the BLM looters last night have all been sat at home and not participating in other BLM protests/riots and they suddenly decided to get involved ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
