ReplyDeleteIf only scientists could identify some common denominator.
DeleteFunerals and those stupid memorials on the anniversaries of killings are becoming quite the hot spots for shootings.Pretty soon they’ll be begging for police protection at those functions too

DeleteGeez, remember when they used to have those great St. Patrick's Day parades down 79th Street? Anybody see Phleger on the scene, tending to his flock? Nah, didn't think so.

ReplyDeleteHmmmmm, isn't there a directive form Mayor Lightfoot and Gov. Pritzker that no more than 10 people at a funeral???? Some folks don't follow the rules.
ReplyDeleteATTENTION POLICE OFFICERS!!!!! The Mayor HATES you. The black community HATES you. Don’t do anything for them. Let them kill each other. Do not risk getting jailed, sued or fired by attempting to arrest anyone for these crimes.
