So Predictable

  • Mayor Lori Lightfoot on Wednesday likened reopening Chicago to “slowly turning on a dimmer — not flipping a light switch” — and said the leap to the city’s Phase 3 plan will not allow her to reopen the lakefront.

    Last week, Lightfoot said people have been sending her “really interesting suggestions” about ways to reopen the lakefront — by doing it in phases and having “segmented hours for particular activities.” The mayor said she would consider those ideas whenever the city meets the rigid standards she has established to graduate to the so-called “Cautiously Reopen” Phase 3 of her five-step plan to slowly reopen the city.

    But during a virtual speech to the Economic Club of Chicago, Lightfoot delivered a heavy dose of bad news to Chicagoans with spring and cabin fever: “Unfortunately at this point, we will not be ready to reopen our lakefront” because a “resurgence in cases is more than a risk. It is a very real possibility we need to be prepared for.”
So when a few hundred Red Line Raiders head to downtown beaches because it's just too damn hot inside, we can expect mass arrests, even with the police outnumbered fifty-to-one?

How about the interior beaches at Humboldt, Douglass, Washington and Columbus Parks? Warm night, hundreds of people out seeking relief from the heat (that supposedly kills coronavirus). Is Groot and the alderassholes going to be out there clearing the parks? Because all the manpower is going to be at the lakefront.

It's obvious that Groot is taking direction from the coastal elites and not doing what is best for Chicagoans.

SCC you have found a task worthy of an AlderCreature or even an exalted mayor - cleaning the parks. Since Sticky BunsTunney is so fastidious, make him the crew foreman so even the outhouses will sparkle. Give Ervin the detail that he is eminently qualified for: picking up dog waste. Junior Deputy Dart can improve intergovernmental relations by providing pizza and dayglow vests emblazoned with "SWAP."

The city missed the boat on the casinos, lost billions to Indiana. The state banned smoking at casinos, lost billions to Indiana. The city racked up the taxes on gas and cigarettes, lost billions to Indiana. Indiana opens up months before Illinois, it’s gonna loose billions again. The shelter in place orders only work if everyone is doing it, so for one state closely bordering another too open at different times is redonkulous.

OT: The city is still going to hire 30,000 teenagers for the Summer Jobs Program according to an article in the Sun-Times. You know, the program where inner city teens are hired for the summer to clean parks, paint benches, clean beaches, work various jobs at all the summer festivals like Blues Fest, Gospel Fest, Taste of Chicago, Lollapalooza etc. They will work “virtually” from home on computers. What in the name of fuck is wrong with Lightfoot?

So the directions from all these Democrat governors and mayors makes no sense. Los Angeles beaches are opening but you have to wear a mask but if you walk into the water you don’t need a mask (apparently the water must provide you protection from the virus!!!). You can walk, jog, surf and bike but you cannot lay in the sand. In Michigan you can go to a big box store and buy any food item but you can’t buy garden seeds. This must be a contest with our elected Democrats in the country. Maybe they get a prize for the most outlandish edict they can put over on their citizens.

At least we have the Dells & Indiana Dunes for fun summer water recreation. I was in Indiana buying essential items (liquor) the other day. While I was at the register, I asked the clerk when they were going to open up the restaurants. She said May 18th. I will definitely be taking my family to Indiana for some fine dining that day. I'm sure non-essential businesses will soon follow. I wish I could move to Indiana. The city residency requirement sucks. It's just another form of enslavement. But thank God I only rent in Shitcago. Only a few more painful years in this hell hole and my family and I are gone.

More things that are predictable over in New York probably the same as our so-called health commissioner in Illinois the one that has no clue what she’s talking about;

NYPD union lashes out at health commissioner over coronavirus mask plea rejection
https://www.foxnews.com/us/nypd-union-health-commissioner-coronavirus-mask-plea

She said what against the police;
The New York police sergeants union described city health commissioner Dr. Oxiris Barbot as a "b----" Wednesday in response to revelations that she told an NYPD official she didn’t give “two rats’ a--es” about cops getting safety masks.

“Truth is this b---- has blood on her hands but why should anyone be surprised the NYPD has suffered under DeBlasio since he became Mayor,” the Sergeants Benevolent Association tweeted in response to The Post’s exclusive story revealing Barbot’s decision

*Similarities between New York and Chicago are the mayor treats the police is incredible, the common denominator is that they are Democrats and Democrats are against everything lawful and they promote letting the criminals do whatever they want just like an Illinois for the governor let out how many murderers how many criminals to keep their trade going how many more people will be murdered robbed car jacked up due to this malfeasance?

It is becoming more apparent day by day that our so called Illinois leaders are not working as individuals for the City of Chicago and the State of Illinois. They are coordinating and working in lockstep with Nancy Pelosi and the Democratic National Committee members who are using the Wuhan virus pandemic as an election tool to defeat Trump at the polls. They do not care if they destroy the US economy and suspend all of our constitutional liberties in the process. Pelosi has delivered an impossible relief bill promising amnesties for all illegal aliens, cash for illegals, and a federal bailout of corrupt and mismanaged states like Illinois by borrowing and spending cash that will leave your great-grandchildren in debt forever. Resist them.

Lightfoot will announce very shortly that Chicago will be closed for the summer, then announce the closing going into fall because its flu season again. But in reality another month of this lockdown and the city will be bankrupt along with the state of Illinois. It’s all academic right now, the city is now Detroit, and the state is as well. For those of you living on the far Northwest side, Edison Park, Oriole Park, Norwood Park, Wildwood, Union Ridge etc... look at all the for sale signs up. Get out while you can. Oh and the pension, I don’t think it will be here after December. And if the pension goes so does the healthcare.....
On a brighter ironic side, the Lakefront will be locked down all summer, fitting for the constituency that voted Lightfoot in....

How much money out of your property taxes go to the park district? How much to C.P.S.? If there is no access to these services then why are you paying your taxes. How can you collect taxes on things not available?

The bottom line in this screwed up State is the unions. The unions control the politicians. All the city, county, state and CPS workers sitting at home collecting full salary. But the city state and county are broke. The way to open this state is to demand these people go back to work or furlough them. This will force fat asses hand

With so much important going on and they waste time with stuff like this. If you relocate to Texas have to stay away from the big cities as they have become demoncratic shitholes.

Phase 2.1(a) 3(c): All outdoor face masks will have three (3) elastic bands or cloth coverings must have IDPH approval label visible. No face mask, scarf, facial covering will display any slogans, symbols, or materials deemed offensive to the Chairman.

There’s gonna be a surge at the beaches, surge at the zoo, surge at the parks.
Notice how not much air time, ignoring the 2-A-Day murders and run of the mill shootings and robberies?
Eventually the Dept will get overwhelmed containing just the seasonal ghetto misunderstandings and not too many will be able to handle downtown rallies and beaches. They know this and want to avoid regular taxpaying, newly forced unemployed folk from becoming civil disobedient. HQ may have to rethink static Mon-Fri house mouse stenos.

The dimmer analogy is very similar to the boiling water and frog analogy which im sure most of you are aware of.

One does not drop a frog into a pot of boiling water as the frog will jump out. But if you put the frog in a pot of water and slowly increase the heat, the frog will be cooked before it knows any better.

And that friends is what the govt is doing to us. The govt did not come out and say we are putting everyone on house arrest for 18 months as that would cause mass resistance. Instead it was two weeks, then two more, then two more, then a five phase plan, etc etc etc.

The elite have a bunch of data on how society will react to certain stimuli. This is a scientific takeover. They know just the right amount of pressure to apply to the masses throat. Not too much, not too fast, but just the right amount. And so far it looks as if their models are correct. I pray the warm weather will be the additional factor not accounted for which results in the masses saying "enough."

However, the cynical side of me has grown to hate the working man as much as the elite. I have been sounding the alarm nonstop only to be laughed at, called a kook, ignored and insulted. At this rate I ALMOST don't even care. These people deserve what's coming. But I also know thats a defeatist attitude. I just don't know how much more bootlicking and groveling I can handle.

The only ones who are pissed fall into two groups, often overlapping. The first group is composed of individuals with a strong understanding of history and the importance of never surrendering one's liberty in exchange for a promise of safety. The other group is composed of those who are already feeling the negative financial impact of this shutdown, i.e. restaurant/bar industry, manufacturing industry, truckers, service industry and any other type of small biz owner.

Unfortunately for Chicago, most people are still receiving a check so they don't care and some even enjoy this lockdown as it is almost a vacation. This group will not care until it is too late.

As such, when I speak to family, friends and neighbors, 65% of the time the person disagrees and thinks its good to have the govt be their mommy and they wear their face panty with pride.

This has caused me to harbor great disdain for my fellow citizen. I no longer feel like fighting. The cynic in me can't wait to see this lockdown rear its ugly head in their life as they have ignored all warnings. Im torn and it honestly brings a tear to my eye. I don't know if Chocago still possesses the will to be free.

“slowly turning on a dimmer — not flipping a light switch”

Hey Mayor: A dimmer is a switch! It is a rheostat so that makes it a switch which controls the flow of power to allow more or less to flow, not just a binary on or off state. It is a switch.

So your dimmer analog is bullshit. If this were a dimmer switch then the beaches would be open with restrictions (masks, 6 foot spacing etc) like 50% capacity or limiting CTA service to and from the beaches to lessen crowd surge for a month. That matches the dimming up analogy. That is not what you said Groot, you said closed is closed period. AKA on or off all.

What Groot is proposing is only like an on/off switch. She will keep everything closed just for a long time... Then hit the on switch later when SHE feels the time is right. So stupid!

That is a light switch on a programmable on/off timer. Why do the power mad Democrats get to program the on or start time and not the PEOPLE who are ready to get back to living life?

When is lollapooloza getting cancelled? Or won’t Rahm let it be cancelled? All it is is a free gift to c3 and his thief ahole brother. Thanks Joyce and O’Shea for giving us Lori. May you not rot in he’ll with RINO Lausch and his scam indictment of Burke to clear the way for Lori by taking out Daley, Preckwinkle and Mendoza to put toad woman in office.

Lets all worry about the Rona. But no worries about the 187 murders and 914 shooting victims. Its ok cuz we're in "lock down". That's all the dummy mayor worries about, the lock down and public safety. yeah, right. No one asks her about all the dead bodies on the south and west sides. The community does what it wants. Right now it appears blood letting is more important than fighting the Red Chinese Flu.

Has anyone seen the stooge from Texas??? We want to hear all about his "Shooting the Moon" stories. Fascination story teller I hear but not much on crime fighting. He's probably real busy talking to Pillow West about Constitutional Policing. We could be hitting 200 murder victims by Memorial Day and 1,000 shootings. Hate to think what the numbers would be without the China Flu lock down. What's the summer plan Tex, more surges and blue light parades?

Hey Groot when do I get my $5000 back I paid in December for a boat slip? With interest of course.

Anyone that actually volunteers to go to Summer Mobile is out of their gourd. Battling thugs over made up social distancing rules for three hot months? No thanks.

Just saw some members of the Community jumping over a fence after being seen snatching and grabbing in a gated community. Wearing color coordinated 'coronavirus masks', or as we used to call them, crip rags. Once again the Community finds a way...

SOOOO Obvious. They need to keep the city shut down until after Memorial Day Weekend. They are doing it to try to keep the killing down so Brown doesn't look like the complete inept in over his head Super that he is. Trying to protect him because he literally has no crime fighting strategy. Beaches closed, businesses closed= less chance for conflicts and shootings at those places. Now they will just pray for crappy weather and hope for the best.

So here is my story, by the way my wife did not want me to tell it:
On Mothers Day, my friend contacted a Restaurant in ShitCago, to have a Mothers Day celebration, he was told, yes he can have it there under the following guidelines, the party can only last 4 hours, if anyone in the party was a policeman, media member, or worked for the local government, they were not invited. We had a party of 50, the deal was 1 waitstaff, 1 cook and the owner! The blinds were drawn and everyone had a great time, so Fuck You Weasel and your rules!

Get this guy a medal!!


“Grundy County Sheriff Ken Briley went a step further, saying he was refusing to enforce the governor’s executive order. He said he had neither the authority nor the desire to cite or arrest people for holding weddings or graduation parties.
‘Ladies and gentlemen, we are not Cook County,’ Briley wrote on the sheriff’s Facebook page. “We are a rural community who believes in freedom, the rule of law, and (we) support the Constitution.’ “

I was supposed to go to Chicago for Easter.
--I canceled my trip

I was supposed to go to Chicago for Memorial Day.
--I canceled my trip.

I am supposed to go to Chicago for Independence Day.
--Will I have to cancel my trip?

If fat ass doesn't reopen the state soon I will have no alternative but to do so.

All the money I did not spend in Illinois stayed in my pocket.

Why does any resident of the City of Chicago have to pay for anything related to the Chicago Public School System,Chicago Park District,Chicago Public Library System,or the around the clock running of empty buses and trains by the Chicago Transit Authority?In essence they have all been shutdown for 2 Months now,and according to the Mayor will be shutdown for possibly 6 more Months to a year.When is our tax rebate coming?How about the shuttered City Hall?Can,t that massive building and parcel of land be sold off to pay down debts?With no traffic out there couldn't all of the Traffic Aides and Meter Maids be laid off or furloughed?How about the 50 Alderman and their staffs?Couldn't the City of Chicago take a page from the Governors playbook and divide the City into maybe 6 regions with an Alderman representing each region?That would shave 44 Huge salaries and benefits including their staffs off the City Payroll.These may be a few solutions that a Bankruptcy Judge could assist in implementing.

Get your head in the game. This is 100% about seizing power in the election BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY. Period. Stop.

"As such, when I speak to family, friends and neighbors, 65% of the time the person disagrees and thinks its good to have the govt be their mommy and they wear their face panty with pride.

This has caused me to harbor great disdain for my fellow citizen. I no longer feel like fighting. The cynic in me can't wait to see this lockdown rear its ugly head in their life as they have ignored all warnings. Im torn and it honestly brings a tear to my eye. I don't know if Chocago still possesses the will to be free.


May God help us all."

We are now finding out who our friends really are. The 65% you mention think that if you don't agree with them, YOU are the asshole and are too stupid to understand.

Been retired for 10. Please explain....are there really Chicago Police Officers chasing people from the lakefront? That can't be happening.

5/14/2020 09:56:00 AM
----------------------------

Yes- City Police are being used to chase citizens away from the Lake over invisible boogieman. Part of a Federal Mandate to shift the Overton Window and a condition of Chicago receiving Federal phony funds (whole Trump-fight act is just for show; Lori a Fed).

Over 90% of deaths in Illinois have co morbidrities. Around 50% of deaths in Illinois are nursing homes.
Now, consider the fact that most deaths are labeled covid for the increased funding hospitals recieve.
We are being deceived by our elected officials for some reason.
Why ?

5/14/2020 02:06:00 AM

It's an election year and the incumbent is a Republican. Do you really think this lock down bullshit would be going on if Killary was prez?

5/14/2020 11:00:00 AM

Absolutely, if she was the President. Then the BIG push for mandatory contact tracing for everyone.

Civilian here, Groot is passing unconstitutional edicts. Having been in the Army '69/70, unconstitutional orders need not be followed. I seriously doubt things have changed that much.

5/14/2020 08:36:00 AM

If you were Army in 69/70, there is a reasonable expectation that you were in Viet Nam. Thank you for your service sir.

Although you did not give too, too much away, I think your wife is pretty sharp in the common sense department. Is it possible she lived her formative years here in Chicago, while you grew up in Wisconsin, Iowa, Indiana or Michigan? Just an unofficial survey of sorts.

This is one of the most legit telling statements I have read in a long time, many college kids in their parents for example are asking for their money back for not being able to go to school and use the facilities the taxpayers should be getting a huge property rebate because of all of this being closed and if they made her what I did what she was supposed to do acted like the fiscally responsible person she was elected to be she would’ve did the furlough thing or laid off some of these political animals in all aspects especially the Chicago public Schools which take up the biggest portion of the property tax bill and give the least amount of results but then again she is not qualified.

Pelosi has delivered an impossible relief bill promising amnesties for all illegal aliens, cash for illegals, and a federal bailout of corrupt and mismanaged states like Illinois by borrowing and spending cash that will leave your great-grandchildren in debt forever. Resist them.

“Coronavirus will come and go, but the government will NEVER forget how easy it was to take control of your life. To control every sporting event, classroom, restaurant table, and church pew. And even of you are allowed to leave your own house.”

Give them something to remember.
