Good Gawd. Are Black voters standards so low that they see a nappy head and vote for it? Looks like a midget in a pants too long for it!

Her opponent was black, 2 feet taller and just as corrupt a Democrat. No Republican challenger. Such is the city-state of Chicago and it’s ignorant masses.

Where is the Diocese? Where is Father Flaky Faker at St. Sabinas? With their revenue stream cut off, you would think they would have some concern.

Jeez siding with Democrats on the social justice BS really worked out for you Cardinal Cupich? What did Groot promise you?

RCINC is the oldest most profitable multinational corporation on the planet

Also please note the activity around Nation of Islam Mosque at 79th and Stony Island- I guess they are exempt from restrictions-

The liquor stores are “essential” only because so many uncounted people are addicted to alcohol, and the system can’t handle all of that chaos with everything else it has to handle right now.

Someone in my neighborhood thought the liquor stores were left open because of the tax revenue, but I think my answer is the better one.

Haven’t read this anywhere; it just makes sense.

That was in response to Peter’s saying that Jesus didn’t have to be sacrificed for his believers. I don’t remember it having anything to do with letting churches open again in the middle of a pandemic. Unless you think the parishioners are being sacrificed for the Constitution.

Conquering a pandemic requires that the threatened group act together as a group. That is why Pence and Trump have said “We’re all in this together,” the phrase that is loathed by those who want to make their own personal, selfish choices in the middle of a public threat.

So Groot opens her holster again. Proves the idiot she is every time. Why have we not seen any pushback to these little tinpot dictators. I’ve done my part here, but there needs to be people following the mutts around.

“Why have we not seen any pushback to these little tinpot dictators.”

We have. But we need a hell of a lot more of it.

Yes. the whole idea of the lockdown was to supposedly keep the hospitals from being overwhelmed. If the liquor stores closed the ICUs would be full of alcoholics in DTs leaving no room for covid patients

However that doesn’t explain why pot shops are essential
