I'm heartsick, outraged, and above all so sad and scared for the people of Chicago. And of course, they are planning to do this to the rest of our country, at least in the cities where lots of Democrats live . It's beyond belief what is happening and that there are so many horrible, hateful, violent thugs who have signed up for this and apparently enjoy it. The fact that they feel they don't have to follow court orders is especially scary and disgusting.
