"Wilding" violent mobs in Chicago

[Clint45]

IIRC, the LoDo incidents last year weren't attributed to gang-related violence, [MOD EDIT: Feeding the trolls]

While it may've not been "gang related," IIRC nearly every individual arrested and prosecuted was a member of a local Crip set.

This is my fourth time trying to write. Every time I start trying to type a response, I end up going off and saying things I don't want to put on the Internet. This shit makes me sick. Watching my country fall into the hands of these bastards infuriates me. Actions have consequences. Anyone engaged in this type of violence deserves what they get. Did you all read, or hear, the comment from the "community activist" encouraging parents not to blame the police? These fools have the audacity to intrude upon the rights of peaceful citizens enjoying a walk down a public street and we have to worry about their parents lashing out at the police?!?!

America is an idea. A nation built and founded upon certain principles. When those principles no longer exist, neither does America. How much more can we take? When is enough, enough?

Closing this thread because the racist and borderline racist comments have no place here.

Additionally, the last post reflects sentiments we can all appreciate but also hints towards encouraging unlawful behavior. While we may not agree with all of them, we are still a nation of laws. For those laws we disagree with, there is a lawful process we can use to change them. Any discussion to the contrary is not allowed on this site.
