Officially licensed criminal exploitation of the poor is one of the more ubiquitous hallmarks of a failing state.

When the scum who think that the basic function of people is to fund their government have free reign....

Some folks there need to be making a list and checking it twice.

No further comment.

It’s absolutely disgusting at how Democrats treat the people they claim they are advocating for. I can’t imagine living in that filthy sewer.

On June 21, 2016, Chicago police pulled Spencer Byrd over for a broken turn signal. Byrd says his signal wasn't broken, but that detail would soon be the least of his worries.

"It's not Broken!"

(Cop takes out nightstick. ~BAM!~ Says; "Oh yes it is!)

Anyone for any form of asset forfeiture before CONVICTION should be disenfranchised, beaten nearly to death with ball peen hammers, given a South African style necklace and the cremains removed from AMERICAN soil. I care not the letter of the party identifier.

This typifies Chicago Values.

And yet when Chik-fil-A wanted to open in Chicago? Mayor Rahm denounced them as not having Chicago Values.

He could not have been more correct.

The city of broad shoulders has cryingly decayed into the city of cruel racket muscle.

If possible, people in this Kafka trap should leave their old things behind in Chicago and go to a new locale. Chicago does not deserve this man’s presence.

Illiberal “liberals” need to be shamed from pole to pole. The owner and driver of the auto had no drugs. He would have skated even in Singapore, which would have hanged the other guy.

Even in the suburbs, he could have escaped. This is not romantic. This is nightmare.

But it is understandable as law of the jungle. It’s how a system dominates, by playing hardball. Only when the citizens play harder ball yet will it end.

Unless you’re the king of poo, I guess!

The toilet is due for a God grade flush.

I almost feel sorry (almost) for the people in states and cities like California, Chicago and all the others that are billions and billions of dollars underwater in the their government pension obligations. This problem will get worse and worse and along with it every type of tax, fine, fee, duty, penalty etc. will continue to increase to a suffocating rate in a losing attempt to deal with it. It will be a nightmare long before the inevitable happens, the day of reckoning appears and the laws of economic gravity finally come crashing home.

What’s even crazier is that they seized his tools, too.
