Saw the footage on the local news last night. It was unbelievable.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/chicago-c...070218361.html



Chicago crowd sets fireworks, dances on cop cars; at least 61 arrested: report

..."Sunday night was a disaster," said Ald. Brian Hopkins, according to Chicago's WBBM-TV. "We had massive chaos and mayhem downtown. We had guns in backpacks. Guns in pockets. A large number of firearms present."

In a separate incident, two Chicago cops were shot early Monday as police attempted to break up a crowd on the city's West Side....

Seems like Joey's plan to destroy America is working. Dems should be proud they voted Dementia Joe.

The answer to that is Indiana + NRA = gun violence in Chicago.

Bahahahaha!

Yes, criminals get their guns in Indiana. Then drive back to Chicago. All coordinated by the....wait for it........NRA!

Therefore, every state in the nation needs to be like Chicago in their gun laws!

HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Quick question: Why is the crime in Indianapolis a fraction of that in Chicago? Just wondering.

Please also provide some evidence for this oft-repeated liberal, anti-gun talking point. Thanks.

As an Indiana resident (and former Chicagoan) I can tell you that my guns have never committed any violence in Chicago.

Well, considering that the reason the nations founders wanted to ensure citizens always had the right to own firearms...was so they could protect themselves from a tyrannical govt!!


naturally, when a tyrannical govt is in power...there is going to be major clashes due to this! Its to be expected, but citizens MUST ALWAYS remain on the side of their fellow citizens, even if it reaches the point of firearms being used against representatives of the tyrannical govt....after all, that is what keeps us all free (or least suppose to...fear of what the people MAY DO).

Black families with a married couple have poverty rates in the single digits the past 30+ years and kids that do not commit high crime rates.

In the 1940s and 1950s with more racism than today and blacks moving to urban areas (where crime rates are above the national average), black violent crime rates were falling and well below today's black violent crime rate. Black families were more intact back then.

Is it possible the lack of intact family units leads to these scenes?
