buT bLm.. The insurrection was MUCH uglier than it looked. We are learning more about: -Plans for grabbing Electoral College votes -Participants with Police/Military background -Taliban style videotape confessions / executions of Congress members Not a bloodless Coup - its treason https://t.co/4C5o78qsnV — Barry Ritholtz (@ritholtz) January 10, 2021

This won't make the national news headlines. Three killed, four critically wounded in Chicago shooting spree before gunman shot dead in Evanston One of the victims was an international Chinese Ph.D student. The perp was a Black guy who was a mental case and probably high on drugs. The perp ALONE racked up a body count that came close to that of last Wednesday's invasion of the Capitol. On a slower news day, this might have made national headlines. But nope, this will be chalked up to a typical night in liberal-dominated Chicago. Imagine if the police weren't "defunded," though. Imagine if they could have responded to the 911 calls sooner instead of being bogged down in a queue of 5 dispatch requests at any given moment. Then maybe a few more lives could have been saved, and this asshole would have taken the asphalt temperature challenge sooner. But nope, gotta "defund the police," then deny that "defund really means defund." And anyone who dares to point that out just "doesn'T likE blacK peoplE ..." Tenchusatsu
