We can but hope.
Cops Are Reportedly Calling in Sick: Will DNC Violence Be Worse Than 1968?
The Democratic National Convention kicks off in Chicago on Monday, and the city has been bracing for violence and riots. Businesses started boarding up their windows and doors last week due to the many thousands of antisemitic, pro-Palestinian protesters expected to descend on the area organized by more than 200 different groups. Some are saying it could be reminiscent of the violence that plagued the 1968 DNC, which was also in Chicago.Chicago law enforcement dismisses that idea.
“Chicago 2024 won’t be like Chicago 1968. That is the promise of law-enforcement officials and protest organizers alike as the curtain prepares to lift on this year’s Democratic National Convention,” the Wall Street Journal reported over the weekend. “Each side says it aims to maintain the peace even as thousands are expected to demonstrate against the war in Gaza, abortion restrictions and on other hotly contested issues.”
That may just be wishful thinking. According to some reports on social media, more than 1,000 officers are calling in sick.
While we cannot independently verify this, it makes perfect sense. In light of recent history, who in the police department wants to put their lives on the line for these people?
Meanwhile, Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D-Ill.) says that 150 members of the Illinois National Guard are “on standby” for the DNC.
Obviously, we hope that there won’t be violence and no one gets hurt, but the signs of pending chaos have been there for months. If more than a thousand police officers have called in sick, they’re going to be severely outmanned, and that’s a recipe for disaster.
Sorry, Matt, you know I love ya and all, but speak for yourself on that one. Me, I’m rooting for mass casualties, as many as possible—the vast majority of them DRTs, hopefully. If the Dims and their freaks, pAntiFa geeks, Jew-obssessed psychos, and sundry professional-victim-class losers burn Chicago to the fucking ground and leave a smoking ruin in their wake, hey, I’m fine with it.
Update! WINDY CITY FORECAST: Unseasonably high rhetorical temperatures, with widely scattered rioting and severe lawlessness likely over the next several days; chance of bodies stacked in windrows exceeding 90%.
Crime-filled Chicago displays all that’s wrong with Democrats in one failing city
If the message of this week’s Democratic National Convention is “We’re going to make America more like Chicago” then run for the hills.Chicago is the murder capital of America — with someone shot every two hours and someone killed every 17 hours. So far this year, 353 victims, most of them black, have been murdered in Chicago. The homicide rate is five times higher than New York’s.
“Democrats wanted to hold the convention somewhere safer, but Beirut wasn’t available,” quipped one wag.
Chicagoans thought Lightfoot was bad, but Johnson’s embrace of Chicago’s sanctuary-city status and exploitation of racial grievances has taken crime and disorder to a new level, with an influx of illegal migrants threatening to bankrupt the collapsing city budget and angering black Chicagoans.
Last week, a black pastor warned Democrats that many black Chicagoans are so fed up they are considering deserting the party.
“Black people have been with the Democratic Party for over 60 years and we have nothing,” Pastor David Lowery Jr. told reporters. “We don’t own anything in our community…All we have is crime and problems.”
Sorry dipshit, but seeing as how we both know you’ll be voting en masse for Kumala this fall no matter what, my sympathy for you, your congregants, and your nightmarish urban hellscape is, shall we say, limited to nonexistent.

I am interested if there will be fiery but mostly peaceful protests.
