Lori Lightfoot Whines About 'Toxicity' in Public Discourse
Townhall,com ^ | July 5, 2022 | Spencer Brown

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot, after another violent weekend in which there were more than 70 shootings on her city's streets, has found a new scapegoat to dodge blame for the chaos that befalls her city at some level each weekend despite strict gun laws and an alleged commitment to law and order: the public discourse.

Specifically, according to remarks Mayor Lightfoot made on Tuesday, "the toxicity in our public discourse is a thing that I think we should all be concerned about."

Ah, well, if it's non-toxic public discourse Mayor Lightfoot wants to encourage, she should probably start with herself if she doesn't want to deepen her reputation as a hackish partisan hypocrite. It was just last week, after all, that she shouted "f**k Clarence Thomas" during her remarks at Chicago pride. Definitely a not at all toxic thing to do.

Beetlejuice is the very definition of toxic behavior.

She is a psychopath, who willfully causes harm and destruction with ZERO qualms about it.

Beetlejuice has been and still remains an absolute nightmare for Chicago, as anyone in his right mind tries to escape her vile and malicious clutches.

Toxic Discourse to a Leftist means people are pointing out facts deleterious to their actions and agenda.

She's running for re-election. I hope the citizens of Chicago kick her ugly ass to the curb.

So tired of karens and woketards overusing “toxicity” for everything they don’t like.

Lori Lightfoot creates toxicity every time she opens her mouth. If anyone needs an abortion it’s her—to cut out whatever is causing her toxicity.

Failure, utter failure, will be the legacy and history of bug-eyes. Bet.

Sounds like a personal attack on politicians who urge violence.

Like Maxipad Waters, Obama, Pelosi, “Shotgun Joe” Biden.....

Is that the same Lori Lightfoot who claimed to have “the biggest dick in Chicago”?

Bingo. Beetlejuice feels free to smear her critics with obscenities, but pointing out how incompetent she is, is toxic. So many of the black mayors across America are just ceremonial figures in it for the graft and fame.
