Lightfoot Tells Looters 'We Are Coming For You' After Night Of Violent Protests | Katy Tur | MSNBC
Get them! Because looting undermines the purpose of peaceful protest & distracts from the message. That’s just opportunistic stealing.
Thomas Johnson – Yeah, because looters and rioters are SO into politics – but only the liberals who vote Democrat. SMH.
Yes … I would go further to say that this was organized crime coming in under cover of an irate mob where last time, it was peaceful protesters. Check out CBS Chicago’s YouTube channel, they have footage from last night of professionals who knew what they were doing, raiding and loading vehicles with goodies.
Now they are protesting the looters arrests, saying what they did is reparations. Blm.
@Thomas Johnson VOTE BLUE!!!
@Puttentane Same TRUMP2020 🇺🇸
Why is the media calling this protest, there was no protest Sunday in Chicago. It was a social media planned looting has nothing to do with protest. There was a rumor about a 15 year old getting shot by police, which wasn’t true.
BLM destroyed their own Marxist movement with looting and shooting. No Jordans No Peace.
In the future all history books will have a name in them. The name of the first leader in the world to create a space force. That man will be elected a second Presidential term this November. Hope you guys enjoy your crime spree. No Jordans No Peace!
@Factsthat Hurtfeelings VOTE BLUE!
@Thomas Johnson BLUE BLUE BLUE!
@C W We’re AGREED! VOTE BLUE BLUE BLUE!
Put them in prison
DISGRACEFUL !
Now she gets tough on crime ? Hilarious
Aries Suggs thru July ….. 2,240 people have been shot in Chicago.
Aries Suggs 440 killed.
Pretty good numbers. Apparently gangstas in Chicago are bad shots !
Aries Suggs that is thousands isn’t it ?
Her last paycheck from Soros bounced
C W lol there’s the explanation !!!
Send the feds
Now they need the police.
@MSNBC – a little too late. The “mayor” gave the okay to looters a looooooong time ago when they were doing “straight up felony conduct (s)” and IT did nothing to stop it.
THIS.
She is a weak and pathetic excuse for a leader and should resign immediately.
“You are welcome, take what you want, we can blame it on Trump.”
@jim shepard what specific Trump policy has inspired thousands of young people in the Democrat run city of Chicago to go loot for cell phones and designer clothing ?
@Minnie Minosa racism, corruption, lying, no law & order, and Donnie virus just to name a few
jim shepard
Wait until you find out Floyd died of a drug overdose.
You are burning down your cities over a lie.
@jim shepard I am not aware of any Trump policy that is designed to specifically hurt black American citizens in Chicago , please tell the class what that would be
This is happening because of poor leadership of the liberal Democrat mayor and governors
This is not Tumps Fault
Vote RED
There is no such thing as “ violent protests “ they are riots , “ protests “ are peaceful

America’s cities are dying, and no one in the Democrat Party seems to want to do anything to stop it from happening. In fact, it is Democrats who are actively managing the chaos and destruction.
@Brian Nave Yes…your life sucks…the world hates you…and it’s the Democrats fault…Trump brainwashed any possibility of common sense out of you !!!
@Brian Nave IT’S NOT A DEMOCRATIC PROBLEM…IT’S AN AMERICAN PROBLEM !!!
Saynoto Socialists who ran around armed to the teeth ?
@Asher Greenfield I didn’t see nazis and the KKK destroying things in Chicago. We must have watched different videos.
Hey looters,
Y’all ain’t helping.
Sincerely,
The rest of us.
BLM does it again. Taking a big dump on their Marxist cause for new Jordans.
@David Gainey YOU ARE ONE DUMB DIMWIT!!!! Geez… I thought our people had some brains, You’re INSANE IN THE MEMBRANE!!!!
@Larry Garland VIRUS TRUMP?
@youknow thething YOU are being played and don’t even know it! I’m not a dem, but i can tell you Trump is a con, a criminal and you are being dumb-witted by him and the GOP. I guess it’s true You can’t fix stupid!!!
@A C : Oh, come on. How many of those deaths were listed as Covid when that really wasn’t the main reason ? And how many were in nursing homes ? Also, when you basically shut down everything ? What did you think unemployment was going to be ? THAT is NOT Trump’s fault and you know it ! Better get off the coasts (minus a handful of states) and out of the big cities. Those are the ones who absolutely do NOT want the democrat / liberal alternative they are witnessing right now, AND for the past 4yrs. You are a good example.
It’s unbelievingly amazing that MSNBC is calling these criminal looters “protesters”.
Mostly peaceful shootings.
Oooooo, give em a stern talkin’ to, ‘Lightweight’.
That will surely stop your looters!
Do you realize how many times I have heard her give that same speech about how she is coming for you. She never does anything.
what a bunch of bs they work for her and the democrats
They were later approached by a man with a stack of job applications. All fled in fear. The work boots were untouched.
🙄
“We will pursue you”,….. and then Kim Foxx will let you go. -Mayor Lightfoot.
Mark N exactly !
American business owners should get those metal like garage doors they have in Italy.
I was thinking that too. Every store in Mexico and Israel has them. They would save a lot of loss and broken glass.
@Deborah Freedman those were made illegal in NYC, maybe other cities too. hmm wonder why
21 people shot in DC this weekend. Half of which were women. Zero coverage here at fake news. BUT THOSE SOUTH DAKOTA BIKERS!🤣
mayor beetlejuice should be in jail for letting all this happen the last 2 months
Suuuure they are going to go after them now.
