Sideways Anger

Groot is determined to ban churches from holding services, by hook or by crook. We're going to use most of the article seeing as how the statement by Rev. Cimpean is instructive to say the least:
  • CHICAGO (CBS) — 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.

    Martin said the signs were put up at the direction of the Mayor’s office, in response to plans by the church to hold one or more religious services – in violation of the stay-at-home order for the coronavirus pandemic.

    The church’s pastor, the Rev. Florin T. Cimpean, took aim at Mayor Lori Lightfoot in response to the parking ban.

    “The police called me to inform us that they were asked by the mayor to put up the signs. It is completely ridiculous,” Cimpean said in the statement. “The mayor is inciting hate against the church which is very sad. A lot of our members risked their lives to escape Communism, only to find it germinating in 2020 under mayor Lightfoot in Chicago.”

    Cimpean continued: “We prayed for the mayor and the governor almost every evening since March 19. We will continue to pray for them. Yet, we are also aware of our constitutional rights. Their effort to intimidate us will make us stronger.”
We spoke with a couple of cops working over that direction, and there isn't a single notice of any special event taking place in that neighborhood. This is purely a political move by Groot in regard to a church daring to defy the government, and these parishioners specifically fled a government that restricted how, where and when they could worship. This is the cruelest of ironies and we certainly hope that any Chicago Police Officer or supervisor called to the scene takes a stand with the citizens.

I hope the Church takes a stand and files a civil rights case against the city, city officials, AND PERSONALLY against the Mayor, Downtown Brown, and everyone involved in this Unconstitutional Violation of Religious Rights.

I would not want to be anyone that writes a parking ticket or tows a vehicle as part of this Unconstitutional Act.

It sure as Hell is ridiculous. Now the police are responsible for putting up "no parking" signs, as well as enforcing the parking ban?

This makes the police look like the bad guys in all of this.

You're a clever bitch, Lori.

Groot bears a bigly grudge against her
preacher-man daddy...

The reckoning is that he refused to
co-sign young Groot's flying the
her LGBTQIA/QUILTBAG freak flag
while living under his roof.

Heh... Kinda self-explanatory as to
why little back-water Ohio girl hied
off to the bright lights and "freedom"
of the nearest really big "urbane and
sophisticated" metropolis.

"Chicago here I come!"

Interesting...
Groot, for whatever reason, is quite
bashful about proclaiming how he/she/it
IS an avowed and militant atheist.

Color us really entertained as to how
when she was running/seeking endorsements,
she told Chicago's make-believe, glass block
cross clergy to kiss her perpetually aggrieved
and enraged hockey-dot.

They have never encountered an afflicted
creature like Groot so they were gobsmacked
and gastiflabbered as to how to make their
approach.

Groot has total and absolute contempt for "churchians."

Irony?

No wonder her mother was looking like she was
about to cry when she was interviewed in regard
to Groot's ascendancy and the topic of Groot's
home life and upbringing was broached.

We watched it in the name of due diligence
and opposition research.

The art of combat listening as practiced by
old Policemen...

It ain't always what you say...

It's what you try your damnedest not to say
and how hard you try to keep from saying it.

Meh...

Maybe it's because we're just all fucked-up
from half a lifetime of seeing foul, evil, ugly
and heart-breaking shit from behind the wheel
of a CPD Blue & White.

SCC touches a nerve with "Sideways Anger."

Groot... The ultimate power tripping tin pot
metropolitan progressive despot.

Heart-Breakingly... There WILL be "Police Officers"
stupid, ignorant, hateful and foolish enough to enforce
Groot's edict and get all up in the pulpit to drag
the preacher off to jail...

Take a stand with the citizens? I wouldn't say that. Now I would do what I normally do if called to a similar scene. Tell them politely "the sign says you can't park here, we got a call from a concerned citizen. I'm not going to write you a ticket but the next person may. Have a good day". Drive off, 6P through the PCAT, 15 minute break maybe, then go about my day. But take a stand or show any kind of affiliation while in uniform on duty? No thanks, not my battle.

Where is the ACLU? She has assumed Dictatorial Powers beyond the Constitution. And I hope there is at least one cop with the balls to defy any order to arrest someone for nothing more than attending church. If CPD arrests anyone for going to a house of worship it will be a stain on CPD that will last for decades, as when CPD attacked strikers in the 1930's! The Amendments to the Constitution of the United States were written to protect us FROM GOVERNMENT, and police are agents of Government. The Overreach that we are seeing, with the Pandemic as an excuse is a Disgrace and affront to our Constitution. Please do not let your political hack leadership put you in a position where you violate the rights of your fellow citizens. Do not let yourself be a pawn. Stay Strong and Bold. Baby "G"

How does that rate next to groots and pricksters days accomplishments.Yet incompetent selfish evil minded Chicago Illinois politicians insist on burdening These Everday Heroes with odering Them to enforce rules of How and where People walk, eat and drink,demanding the wearing of questionable masks,not allowing People to Worship in Church while Policing fake event notices on the People that appreciate and support Police Officers. groot, prikster,fox ,durbin,madigan,dart We will not accept your hate,division ignorance and communism.Look it's as simple as that.

Lorie Lightfoot is a graduate of a Law School. She was a former US Federal Prosecutor. A long the way she forgot one of her first classes in law school. That class is named Constitutional Law 101. That law specifically states that the government shall not make any law that regulate an establishment of a religion, PROHIBIT THE FREE EXERCISE OF RELIGION, or abridge the freed of speech, the freedom of the press, the right to peaceably assemble, or the right to petition the government for redress of grievances. This is one of ten amendments that constitute the BILL OF RIGHTS> Far left radical liberals( LL) have seen to forget the second phrase of this admendment.

It would be nice for the commander to call the church and let them know that even though the signs are up, that he will tell officers not to ticket vehicles. Not that he would need to tell coppers. The signs are only meaningful if law enforcement is there to enforce it.

I was at the church this morning, the only vehicle there was 19X, Capt Kane. There was a lone White Protester with a sign telling everyone to shelter in place, and some Black women ranting about Willie Wilson. The Church Parking lot was full, and none of the cars on the street parked in violation of the signs were ticketed. Apparently cooler heads got to Groot, and made her realize that the optics would be ugly if her Storm Troopers were videoed arresting White Churchgoers. Though I am sure hordes of building inspectors will descend on the church Monday morning. Groot also must realize that if cops are on T.V. arresting churchgoers, it will raise the issue of, why are those officers not doing something about the alarming homicide rate. Consistent bad weather, has done little to reduce homicides in Chicago. Stay safe! Baby "G"

I’ve found myself growing increasingly depressed. I live alone and what little family I have all live far away. I never realized how much I depended on sitting in a coffee shop or visiting my local bookstore or second hand store for stability & structure in my life. Merely, running in someplace for take out or getting delivery is no substitute for human interaction. I’m able to cope but some days are harder.

That said, some by no choice of their own don’t have internal coping skills. I have a family member who suffers from mental illness. Church is the one thing he looks forward to every Sunday. When I speak with him, I notice a huge difference in his demeanor and worry about his mental health going forward. Popping a bunch more drugs is not the answer...his Faith & his ability to practice that faith is the only thing that makes him stable and tolerable to what little family he has. These pricks are heartless. Because these ruthless Democrats don’t believe in God nor recognize the importance of it in other’s lives, they are fine with playing Russian Roulette with people’s mental well-being.

In the words of a disgraced former Superintendent of Police: I have more questions than answers. Of the membership of this Church, what percentage have a Felony ( State and/or Federal) conviction? Answer: Close to ZERO. How many are on probation or parole? Answer: Close to ZERO. What percentage of vehicles towed will be found to have illegal drugs/ narcotics therein? Answer: Close to ZERO. How many vehicles with illegally possessed weapons (including but not limited to high powered magnum assault rifles with Joe Biden style high capacity 50 bullet magazine belt- fed clips)? Answer: Close to ZERO. Entirely possible some elderly couple has the Colt .38 Special they bought on their honeymoon to Door County in 1954 hidden in glove compartment of 1989 Cadillac, however.

Every man hour spent on this is doubly disastrous. First, alienating and antagonizing law abiding tax payers. Second, diverting personnel and time away from the real mission of dealing with the People ( and Folks).

So I assume the Mayor has taken possession of the church's parking lot and closed it. I think a judge may find that troubling. Property confiscation is not allowed under our Constitution the last I looked. So while that is litigated they need to find another way.

In order to avoid further nonsense, the pastor should seek a patron who owns a parking lot and rent it. Have the members rent vans for the day and transport them from the out of area parking lot to the church.

Our way is to effect change by voting. That did nor work with Kimmy or the angry mother and this idiot. So, I would suggest beginning a strong opponent party, possibly a Republican Party, but any grass roots party to defeat the future dictators and possible re-claim the city. It will take time, a long time. So, if you are young and think you are stuck, that's the solution. 1 seat at a time. OR:

I solved my issues years ago by moving to Arizona full time, where my property taxes are less than 1/5 of a similar house with a swimming pool in Illinois. Taxing of your pensions is on the way, so if you are retired and still living in Illinois to avoid those taxes, think again. Go now before you loose too much or there is no one to buy your house because they are moving too. Illinois is loosing 40-50K people each year and more to leave soon.

Kind of OT -

I see that many are mistakenly calling the modern left fascists.

The modern left are more communist than fascist. Both communists and fascists use brute force and intimidation to seize and hold power. But there the similarity ends.

Fascism is militarist, nationalist, tolerates and even supports religion, preserves a country's traditions, allows for private property and corporations, does not force collectivization, does not liquidate entire social classes because of ideology. Fascism came about due to conditions in post-WW1 Italy, IN OPPOSITION to communism which was threatening to take over the country at the time. And although Fascist Italy wound up allied to Nazi Germany in WW2, fascism is only broadly similar to Nazism, by no means are they exactly the same.

The modern left is none of the above. In fact, quite the opposite. The modern left supports, upholds, praises, and apologizes for communism.

The right or conservative side in American politics is also mislabeled fascist by hysterical leftists. Also untrue on every level. American conservatism is rooted in our Constitutionally enshrined rights, the limitations imposed on government by the Constitution, the free market and capitalism.

Both communism and fascism are different sides of the same coin of statism, where the state is superior to any individual's rights.

Carry on.

Actually according to some, you are wrong:

Robert O. Paxton finds that the transformations undertaken by fascists in power were "profound enough to be called 'revolutionary'". They "often set fascists into conflict with conservatives rooted in families, churches, social rank, and property." Paxton argues:

[F]ascism redrew the frontiers between private and public, sharply diminishing what had once been untouchably private. It changed the practice of citizenship from the enjoyment of constitutional rights and duties to participation in mass ceremonies of affirmation and conformity. It reconfigured relations between the individual and the collectivity, so that an individual had no rights outside community interest. It expanded the powers of the executive—party and state—in a bid for total control. Finally, it unleashed aggressive emotions hitherto known in Europe only during war or social revolution.[187]
