Amid Chicago smash-and-grab crime surge, Mayor Lori Lightfoot blames stores

[pipedreams]

De-fund the police and look what you get.

""I'm disappointed that [retailers] are not doing more to take safety and make it a priority. For example, we still have retailers that won't institute plans like having security officers in their stores. Making sure that they've got cameras that are actually operational," Lightfoot says in the clip. "

Stupid and Immoral at its worse!

That ******* ghoul doesn't understand that not every store can afford private security. And if they could, so what? The hell is the guard gonna do about it? Oh, and damned if you get caught packing to defend yourself. 

Clown world.

If Lightfoot's Chicago is just taking its citizens money in taxes, and NOT providing protection, I'd just like to point out that the MAFIA would run the city more safely and efficiently... and given enough time/incidents, some enterprising boss is going to notice that...

A lot of cops made good off duty money working security.

Yet, she does not approve of that.
