Maybe eventually, the law abiding citizens will be able to walk down the street without being afraid of the criminals. One could hope. It's time somebody put "King Dick" and the rest of the Chicago thugs in their place. The common people aren't allowed to defend themselves, yet the thuggery in charge has platoons of armed body guards. It's time to make the criminals afraid for a change. They refuse to put them in jail, so maybe it's time to put a few in the ground.
