Chicago mayor tweets to refuse ‘Trump’s terrorizing troops’ as 14 residents are being shot in her city
July 22, 2020 | Tom Tillison



With violence spiraling out of control in Chicago, President Donald Trump will send federal agents to help counter the surge, and Mayor Lori Lightfoot took to Twitter to play politics.

“Under no circumstances will I allow Donald Trump’s troops to come to Chicago and terrorize our residents,” the Democratic mayor tweeted.

Lightfoot’s political grandstanding comes on a day when fourteen people were left wounded after a gun battle at a Chicago funeral home — during a service for a man gunned down last week.

“All we saw was bodies just laying everywhere. They were shot up everywhere,” said a resident near the funeral home, according to the Sun-Times. “We thought it was a war out here. It’s ridiculous all the shooting that’s going on out here, it really has to stop.”

Ummmmmm you have neither the authority nor the power, Lightfoot. Nor the support of CPD if you try to use them against Federal law enforcement people.

Lightfoot is sacrificing the city and people of Chicago on the altar to her Trump-Hatred.

...     â€œIf the president was really committed to helping us deal with our violence, he would do some easy things,” Lightfoot insists. “What he would push for is universal background checks, he would push for an assault weapons ban, he would push to make sure that people who are banned from getting on airplanes can’t get guns.”

    “We have to have a federal policy on background checks and making sure people are not able to go across the border to states like Indiana and get military-grade weapons in quantities and then bring them back to the streets and shoot people up,” Lightfoot continued.  “That’s what’s happening.”

“The only problem with her response is…well…everything,” NRA-ILA observed. “[R]ather than looking at what she can do better to stem the rising tide of violence in her city, Mayor Lightfoot has decided to misrepresent federal law, malign her neighboring states, and suggest we need more laws that will further infringe on the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens; more laws that violent criminals will regard with as much disdain as the current mountain of laws they violate.”  ...
