Lori Lightfoot has done a lot for the city of Chicago. She’s presided over a 74% decline in arrests, a police department so understaffed that it couldn’t respond to over 50% of the highest priority 911 calls last year, and Murder City, USA has achieved over 555 homicides so far this year…with almost three months remaining.
Crime continues to spiral out of control and companies and residents are fleeing.
So what does Her Honor do about the declining quality of life in her city, aside from promoting more failed gun control plans and anti-gun programs? In a city where her fellow African-Americans are overwhelmingly the victims of the violent crime (78.5% of homicides) she’s enabled and made more endemic?
Lightfoot doesn’t really seem to worry about violent crime. She doesn’t have to. She has her own 90-person protective detail. That’s more officers than are employed by most municipalities in the state.
Instead of tackling the crime, cultural, and economic issues facing the city, Lightfoot and her inner circle spent time composing, choreographing, practicing and recording a TikTok video of her singing and dancing, ostensibly to tout the charms and attractions of Sweet Home Chicago.
Fair warning, this is scary . . .

Mogadishu on Lake Michigan has racked up more homicides in 2022 than 37 entire states and the District of Columbia tallied in all of of 2020. Meanwhile the mayor urges people not to use guns to protect themselves and their families, but to instead call the city’s overwhelmed 911 system.
But when it takes twenty (20) minutes for officers to respond to a triple homicide (surveillance video below), does any sober Chicagoan think police be there to rescue them from an attacker, a robber, or rapist in their midst?
Warning: Graphic video.

It’s clear that Lightfoot isn’t even trying at this point. She’s not even trying to look like she cares. Smarter residents are tooling up. The smartest ones are getting carry licenses.
Lightfoot head as empty as a closed sports stadium
People claim she’s like Nero, fiddling while Rome burns.
But she’s more like Caligula, so filthy in her personal habits that Chicago is morphing into a few of the circles of Hell that Dante wrote about and Dore depicted in woodcuts.
She doesn’t have to. No Democrat does. Whenever some hardened criminal that has been let out of jail or not prosecuted multiple times for violent crimes goes on a killing rampage, Democrats can blame guns and promise another useless restriction that only hinders non-criminals.
It certainly appears Democrats want society to degenerate to this point so they can grasp more power and subjugate citizens more. Suppressing and oppressing the law abiding is always their answer. So, using their excuses to blame the rights and freedoms people enjoy, they make themselves more powerful but no problems ever get resolved.
Democrats should not be allowed to have power over people until they can learn how to serve the citizens instead of just worrying about enhancing their own power.

Hmm…this page doesn’t exist. Try searching for something else.
Not surprising that the link is not available. What a disgusting piece of human debris.
