Chicago Mayor Sets Curfew, Expresses 'Total Disgust' As Protesters Come 'For All-Out Battle' | MSNBC
Peace hasn’t been working for decades so what comes next, naturally this stop pretending
@Logan Saxby So, what you’re saying is, if grown up people don’t get parented, they are free to do whatever? Sounds about right…
F: well ok maybe white people need to not knock peace as a thing. Calling black men who are scary is immature at best
Ha! I’m White and I’ve seen that blown off for 15 years atleast. Nfl anyone????
@Anne Liesveld are you a racist? Because it sure comes across as a racist statement.
@ftobie84 there are actually many ways to solve things, who told you there’s only one way? The truth is that the protesters aren’t going to solve anything, peaceful or not.
The George Covid riots, America makes history again.
Did anyone say that when guns where at state capitals when protesters wanted to open up America again???????
@Judy Besse Please google “Armed Black Protesters in Michigan” – was there a problem?
@Stuff & Things the question is/ how white cops have shoot unarmed black men, women and children? TO many.
What you say is true, but it’s a false equivalency fallacy.
Learn to argue, debate & get your point across without diversion.
They wernt violently burning down buildings, looting, or throwing rocks at law enforcement.
Exactly
Is she threatening the people????
When the cops show up ready to inflict violence on the protesters you need to be prepared! They tried peaceful demonstrations and were met with violence and leaned who to respond in kind!
They weren’t met with violence. The police were like a cactus, sitting there with needles to fend off attackers. All it takes is a couple of idiots to turn a peaceful protest sour.
@TheDrummingXbox360 LOL no, that is a lie. They began assaulting people. It’s on tape you putz.
Its alright to carry at AR 15 at protests ,,no problem there right lady
voltaren yet they literally threatened the lives of ON DUTY POLICE OFFICERS gtfoh !
voltaren They weren’t met with tear gas.
@voltaren Yes they did. Erik Prince’s boys. Not protesters but mercenaries. You can pick them out of the crowd of genuine conscientious objectors by the high quality of their masks and the way they hold their guns. The folks getting arrested do not live in the cities they burn.
@Zymir Well said. No guns at protests anymore. Time to treat guns like cars = you have to have a license to operate, register and insure every gun, even the guns of LEOs.
Yep, whataboutism. that helps.
She must be kidding herself 🤨🤨🤨
Must be but she isn’t kidding anybody else
She look like she just walked out the crack den
Support justice for George Floyd 🙏
The counterfeiter got what he deserved.
He didn’t deserve death. He was being subdued except for he was never out of control. He couldn’t have been put in cop car. Plus I read the counterfiet wasn’t even counterfeit.
Yeah. He was murdered
Hes fired, in jail, and charged with murder? What am i missing
“As you press on for justice, be sure to move with dignity and discipline, using only the weapon of love. Let no man pull you so low as to hate him. Always avoid violence. If you succumb to the temptation of using violence in your struggle, unborn generations will be the recipients of a long and desolate night of bitterness, and your chief legacy to the future will be an endless reign of meaningless chaos.” Martin Luthor King Jr. (1956)
@Thomas lol relax Tommy boy
Rioters today would call him an uncle tom
@Evangelia Hernandez remember when MLK jr. Lead peaceful protest and lead to more change then, you could ever dream of?
@Thomas , just remember to wear your red MAGA hat. It’s important to stand out in a gun battle. Where are all the pudgy brave morons when you need ’em?
@Russell Racey Every time that I’ve ever invited folks to combat, nobody shows up.
Hand to hand combat. 1 knife per entrant.
0:19 because you have failed them… for decades … you have no right to be angry…
💯💯💯💯
Mayor for 6 months = decades?
100%!
Nordstroms & Rayban 👓 were both just looted in Beverly Hills !
Nice!
I need a pair😄😄😄😄
Rollin’ down Rodeo with a shotgun
These people ain’t seen a brown-skinned man
Since their grandparents bought one
~RATM
Omg! Lovvie, I can’t get my new pair of glasses. Lol
You’re all amused by theft..wow
I hate to remind her of this but the right-wing brings weapons every time they protest anything and that’s the only reason why the police don’t shoot them
Righy wing people also dont burn down and loot local businesses.
Remember that time people brought assault rifles to a governors mansion for a protest? We are talking about water bottles and shovels here? Wtf?
Did a shot get fired?
@Shin hmm so when Trump says what about Obama… That isn’t whataboutism?
How many buildings did they burn, fukface
@John Dough so it’s fine to THREATEN to murder someone when you don’t get your way?
Wade in the water children, there is trouble in the water.
Oh no, you’re….disappointed. I think people who are protesting and rioting are also disappointed in you Chicago political elites.
She doesn’t have the right to say anything; her policies have enabled these things to happen.
List one
They need to vote her out
I think Chicago is being pretty peaceful considering who they are and how they have been treated….
Its gonna get worse
True that
This woman is absolutely fantastic.
I’d love the chance just to talk to her.
I’d love the chance to cut her throat
@Notsa’s Purpose im.in.chicago.im.sick.of.the.violence.we.have.to.support.younger.people.should.be.happy.just.to.be.alive.
You should tell that to youre Chicago PD Lori Lightfoot…
Theres a reason why millions of people dont trust police depts or the district attorney’s office.
Imagine if these protesters hit the Streets like the Proud Boys in Michigan?
