The Kill Zone

I know many out there don’t want to hear this, but it needs to be said and shared around. The city I was born and raised in is a complete mess. Chicago is a wild, wild west in modern times. The shootings and killing are way out of hand. This past weekend at least 70 people shot and 11 of those killed. The July 4th weekend 85 people shot 16 end up dying. July 12th weekend, 63 shot 13 killed. Less than a month and 50 people are killed in Chicago. The President has told the Mayor he will send in federal troops if she can’t take care of it. The Democratic Moron Lightfoot says they are in talks with community leaders. Are you kidding me? This is been going on for years and its only getting worse. I don’t think the talking is helping, it is time to actually take action. I hate to say it but where is the Black Live Matter here? They have months of “protests” over one guy getting killed by the police but when 50 plus people are getting shot on a weekend, they have nothing to say about that? These are mostly in neighborhoods that are majority black. You want to make a difference, go protest there. Better yet go and patrol these streets and stop the killing. You want to do away with the police then here is your chance to do their job and show that they are not needed. Here is your chance to prove that all black lives matter not just the ones that fit your little narrative. Show that you can do more than spray paint and burn down buildings.

Peaceful protesters are not the same as the BoweL movements Matter gang. BLM is all about take over and obviously your mayor is getting something out of letting them ruin your city. Write a letter to the white house and have sane citizens sign and ask the Trump administration to come in and help clean out that rabble since your elected officials are not doing their job.

That is a really bad situation. You have to wonder where it will all end.
