Video: Chicago, Calm Down! No More Looting!

Chicago was in an uproar over the weekend. According to The Chicago Tribune, "Authorities responded to a call of a man roaming the streets of Englewood area in Chicago with a gun and when they approached him, the man reportedly began shooting at officers. CPD reportedly returned fire, and the man was sent to the hospital. It is unclear what condition he is in at this time." This is a sad situation, but it was no need for the looting. Mayor Lori Lightfoot responded, "What occurred in our downtown and surrounding communities was abject criminal behavior, pure and simple. And there cannot be any excuse for it. Period. I don’t care, I do not care, whatever justification was given for this. There is no justification for criminal behavior, ever. You have no right to take and destroy the property of others. Our residents deserve to be safe. Our businesses deserve to understand and enjoy safety and security of their property and their employees. Our police officers deserve to be able to do their job without having to worry about shots being fired, projectiles being thrown, and being maced. This is not anywhere near acceptable." Over 100 people were arrested for looting. Chicago, please calm down! All police officers are doing 12 hour shifts without vacation.
