I don't know why Law-Abiding Americans put up with these BLM THUGS !!! Unfortunately THERE'S ONLY ONE LANGUAGE THAT THESE BLM THUGS UNDERSTAND, and it isn't one about "talking nicely" to them when they THREATEN YOUR LIFE OR THE LIVES OF YOUR FAMILY OR THEY INVADE YOUR PROPERTY !!!! It's ONE WARNING SHOT IN THE AIR, and if that doesn't get those COWARDS running, then the next one or two, or ..., are anywhere from the Groin Upwards !!!!

Nolte: Antifa/Black Lives Matter Move Terror Campaign to Residential Areas If you are paying attention to the ongoing Antifa/Black Lives Matter terror campaigns in Democrat-run cities, you might have noticed that these left-wing marauders have begun to move into residential areas. To protect Joe Biden, who has refused to condemn nearly three months of left-wing terror campaigns, the corporate media are ignoring and/or downplaying the relentless rioting, looting, arson, and assaults in the Democrat-run cities of Portland and Seattle. Just a few hours ago, the Democrat-run city of Chicago was added to this list due to five hours of highly-organized marauding along the Windy City’s legendary Magnificent Mile. As of this writing, the chaos is so bad, downtown has been closed, public transportation has been shut off, both bridges into downtown have been raised, freeway off-ramps have been closed. Anyone familiar with Chicago traffic can only imagine the nightmare Monday morning commuters are facing as they try to get to work. As bad as all of this is, thanks to the real journalists covering this left-wing terror campaign (like the indispensable Andy Ngo), and citizen journalists, I’ve noticed that more and more residential areas are now under attack. Up till now, the terrorists — and for good reason — have mostly contained their rioting, arson, and assaults to downtown areas and business districts. This makes sense because these areas are usually closed down for the night, are empty of people, and serve as perfect political targets as they represent the capitalism these socialists despise. In the past, while we have seen the terrorists move into neighborhoods, it has been in search of political targets like a city mayor or police chief … or a Tucker Carlson. As of late, though, the terrorists’ tactics have shifted — not to political targets in residential areas, but to residents in residential areas… Here are just a few troubling examples of what’s to come… In the video below published on Sunday, you will see the Antifa/Black Lives Matter terrorists shine lights into a residential dwelling to catch people looking at them. They then threaten to burn the building down. “We’re gonna burn your building down” “We know where you live” As #antifa have taken to Portland residential areas to riot, they’ve also assaulted & intimidated residents there. Tonight, they threatened those who looked out the window. #PortlandRiots pic.twitter.com/1qiIOLk99j — Andy Ngô (@MrAndyNgo) August 9, 2020 CONT..

Jesse Jackson: Chicago Riot ‘Humiliating… Our Martyrs Cry Together in Shame’ Brett Carlsen/Getty Images JOSHUA CAPLAN10 Aug 20200 Left-wing activist Rev. Jesse Jackson decried widespread looting in the Democrat-run city of Chicago Monday morning, calling it “humiliating, embarrassing, and morally wrong.” “This act of pillaging, robbing & looting in Chicago was humiliating, embarrassing & morally wrong,” Jackson wrote on social media. “It must not be associated with our quest for social justice and equality. #DrKing, #MedgarEvers & , our martyrs, cry together in shame.” This act of pillaging, robbing & looting in Chicago was humiliating, embarrassing &morally wrong. It must not be associated with our quest for social justice and equality. #DrKing, #MedgarEvers & #JohnLewis, our martyrs, cry together in shame. #StopTheViolence #SaveTheChildren pic.twitter.com/UxTJYVq51l — Rev Jesse Jackson Sr (@RevJJackson) August 10, 2020 Hundreds of people descended on downtown Chicago overnight after a police shooting on the city’s South Side, with vandals smashing the windows of dozens of businesses and making off with merchandise, cash machines, and anything else they could carry, authorities said.

Some 400 additional officers were dispatched to the area after the department spotted the post. Over several hours, police made more than 100 arrests and 13 officers were injured, including one who was struck in the head with a bottle, Brown said. Brown dismissed any suggestion that the chaos was part of an organized protest of the shooting, calling it “pure criminality.” In one disturbing incident, he said, occupants of a vehicle opened fire on police who were arresting a man they spotted carrying a cash register. Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot blasted the rioters in a press conference, warning criminals that “We are coming for you.” “We are waking up in shock this morning,” Lightfoot said. “These individuals engaged in what can only be described as brazen and extensive criminal looting and destruction. And to be clear, this had nothing to do with legitimate, protected First Amendment expression.” “We are not going to let our city be taken over by criminals and vigilantes,” she added. Despite Lightfoot’s stern words, she has repeatedly rejected offers from the Trump administration to combat violent crime with federal troops. The AP contributed to this report.
