A shining city on the wall? Not a Democrat run city. The darkness of evil, the City of Chicago, run by you know who, Lori Communist Lightfoot!
You know how it is with all those uncontrollable guns running around shooting people. Lori lightinthehead should just arrest all those guns and everything would be just fine.
Maybe the guns need a hug and a social worker, so they wouldn’t keep shooting on their own…
Maybe they are competing with Kabul, for “Worst place to live”?
Well, Labor Day is coming up, I suppose they are going for a record. I think I’ll pass on visiting Chicago for the next 10 years.
Sounds like another fun filled weekend in Chicago.

Obviously they don’t teach their children that in Chicago.
How come that Marxist BLM leader did not purchase a Home in Chicago? Not enough donations from stupid folks, I guest.
