“You don’t suppose the Chicago police were ordered to be ineffective ?”
I was thinking about this last evening when I was hearing about the rally cancellation, etc... It also occurred to me that the whole BLM movement, as well as the Departmment of Justice police department investigations, purposeful race agitation by the President, and support from many of those in the Democrat party has weakened law enforcement across the board to some degree. It was very clever of them to proactively do accomplish this in order to prepare of opposing any Republican candidate that may become a potential threat to Hillary.
I believe without a doubt that Chicago police presence was intentionally inadequte. With Mayor Rahm, that’s a pretty safe bet. That’s how these people roll—no concern for the safety of the people who would want to attend a political rally for Donald Trump. It may also be that it was more than a mere lack of concern, and an outright belief that the rally attenders deserved any violence that happened to them for even trying to attend Trump’s rally.
The protesters/anarchists were very successful in their home of Chicago, but I don’t believe that will be completely the case in other locales. However, I think that the concerted effort to weaken law enforcement has taken a toll and makes it more difficult for them to address the protesters.
The police are afraid to step in. If they make one wrong move, they are demonized as the criminal. Can’t hardly blame them. Chicago police force should strike or simply quit and find jobs where people want their help.
Very likely.
Cruz blaming Trump was the last straw. Disgusting to no end.
