Chicago's Mayor Lori Lightfoot may have exempted herself from her own prohibition on haircuts, but she made and carried out drastic, and probably illegal, threats against a church that announced its plans to hold Sunday services yesterday. Evidently, only important people like the mayor get to exercise their constitutional rights.
CBS Chicago covered the mayor's threats on Saturday:
People heading to Philadelphia Romanian Church in Ravenswood on Sunday might have a hard time finding a parking spot.
Ald. Matt Martin (47th) said no-parking signs have been put up for several surrounding blocks near the church at 1713 W. Sunnyside Ave. The signs have been mounted on Sunnyside Avenue between Greenview and Ravenswood avenues, and Paulina Street between Lawrence and Berteau avenues, Martin's office said.
The parking ban is in effect from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday, according to Martin's office.

Romanians know from tyrants. Compared to the Ceaucescus (sp?) Lori Lightfoot is a lightweight.

The mayor of Chicago needs to learn to listen.
November is coming. The Fed Gov is not run by Obozo.

Romanians that I have met hate communism even more than I do, something I didn’t think possible.

The Mayor has dug a hole out of which she cannot climb. This will bury her.

I know Chicago is totally run by the rats by but l do find it surprising that Lori Lesbian won the primary.

Sounds like there are enough of these no parking signs to make a nice little fire on the steps of city hall.
To: Texas Fossil
Take her into custody. By any means necessary.

Meanwhile, “only” six people were shot and 38 more wounded. I’m glad she had her priority straight in having the police enforcing her ban on Christians holding Sunday morning worship.

It would be good if Chicago Police would arrest and confine her.
