npub19fcv2nflra09c6p9xz8c8detwj6uy07u4z4m25qh836mnvxtatdq6aay3c (npub19fc…ay3c) I watched Black Lives Matter "peaceful protestors" set cars on fire, break the windows out of stores, steal tons of shit and cause actual real terrorism on the streets of Chicago right outside my building. The terrorism continued the entire weekend. I drove out to a Taco Bell and saw all the windows broken out and boxes scattered all over the streets from every store that had been looted. One owners was on the news, a Korean American who said $300k worth of merch had been stolen. None of these businesses had insurance that covered riots (riot insurance is insanely expensive). I had to get through police checkpoints on the way home and there had been several carjackings in the area. City dump trucks were blocking/protecting a Burger King ... interesting to see which businesses Lightfoot chose to protect and which ones were left to burn.
I wrote this article after it happened, documenting some of the riots and my opinions at the time:
