Cross Burner IDed
As predicted by anyone with a brain, manufactured outrage:
It was a startling and offensive scene.
A burning cross in Grant Park last Tuesday - the century-old flaming symbol of racism and hatred.
For nearly a week, Chicago police and the FBI have been trying to identify the man who was suspected of setting up the cross and torching it.
NBC 5 Investigates has identified a 21-year-old college senior who said he is the person in the photo released by police and who described what he did and why.
Not caught by the CPD or the feebs, despite well over 100 cameras pointing at and around Grant Park and the streets downtown. Named after sending some sort of manifesto to NBC, who then interviewed the subject.
Guess what his motivation was?
University of Illinois Chicago senior Merlin Lu said he knew the implications of a burning cross and had placed a MAGA hat atop the cross, explaining his motivation was to protest Trump administration injustice - not something racist.
A red hat? On top of a burning cross? Anyone know why no one in the media mentioned that part?
Or why pfather pflaggot went in front of the cameras screeching about racism and offering $10K for identification of the suspect?
Or how presidential-hopeful Porkulous used the typical "racism and facism" dog-whistles to imply that Trump supporters were to blame instead of a delusional Naperville UIC student?
NEWSFLASH - he's one of YOU democrats, willing to disregard the entire history of burning crosses and what they symbolize in order to spread your derangement. Fuck you one and all.
If Bailey had half a brain, he'd be having his publicity people splicing footage of Fata$$ jumping (jumping? hahaha) to his stupid blame-game conclusions and asking how someone this dumb could be governor.
Any word on when the Apology Tour starts? We're betting other media outlets bury this one faster than Gacy buried his victims.

Another day another false flag. Yawn.
So, we will hear no more about this just like countless other "racist" incidents that were fake?
Will they let him off with a warning now? It was a good racist incident, right?
Daaa
But the good news is someone at NBC is getting $10,000 from Fr. Phaker.
OT NO PR FEST Coverageand the usual chaos? I guess we’re used to it and expected
Liberal communist False Flag action, 95% of the time.
So who gets the 10 grand?
Too bad he didn’t go up in flames like the idiots you see on you Tube who have spilled gas on themselves as they light it up!
University of Illinois Chicago? What intellectual venom is in the curriculum to cultivate a false flag hate crime attempting to incite civil unrest?
So, it was a hoax. Done to gin up hate and resentment that didnt exist. How can these dumbass democrats hate their president so much and ignore their current mayor and governor? Do democrats get any blame for things ever? Illinois and the Chicago area are fast becoming a difficult place to live. And they leapfrog over BJ the clown, and Porky to go after Trump? Were dealing with very sick people here.
There’s a huge demand for racism and very little supply
The red hat was leftout of the news story because everyone would have known it was bullshit immediately. The media in this town is complicict in biased reporting. A bicyclist was just shot riding in grant park around midnight and it barely made the news. They arent even trying to hid their bias anymore.
Actually pretty amazed that NBC had the “courage” to run the story once they learned it wasn’t one of those right-wingers that are running rampant throughout the city
So, Phather Phaker owes NBC 10k? Good luck trying to collect from that grifter
You have to understand that Darren Bailey is not running a serious campaign. He could grab Nick Shirley with his camera, go to 79th & State and start heading west. By the time he got to Western Ave they'd find at least half a dozen "learing" centers similar to Minneapolis. Or show up at the "offices" of the dozen or so "violence prevention" groups in Chicago and ask to see their times sheets, payrolls, "employee" rosters and time sheets.
Spencer Pratt has exposed the dysfunction of LA and CA...and we get downstate Darren Bailey?
I'd like to say we deserve better...but do we really?
The "apparent" hate crime investigation should include possible connections to the under federal indictment Southern Poverty Law Center. The SPLC has been known to use tax free foundation money to finance left wing extremists and assorted loons to commit acts of calculated, fabricated, made up racism, bigotry and cultivated hate to further their narratives ultimately to solicit greater contributions, political influence and a façade of legitimacy. Its all staged and is readily available for left leaning media sources, university forums/classroom instruction and certain politicians to blow their dog whistles in a rallying cry to the duped righteous masses.
Merlin Lu, a UIC student from Naperville admitted that he burned the cross to protest against President Trump. So again, a fake "hate" crime has been committed by a liberal democrat activist. Gov. Pritzker, Rev. Pfleger, and all others who expressed rage and condemned White Conservatives before the facts were in: THE CROSS WAS BURNED BY ONE OF YOURS.
Hope the kid gets his ten grand from fplager
Let's hope the racist Chinese- Kux -Klansman is a visiting student from China. And ICE snatches him up. HATE HAS NO HOME HERE.
Funny how they never correct the story...
Bailey is part of The IL Combine. It’s all Bulksh*t
Shouldn't he get charged with something, Disorderly Conduct?
I would call it a hate crime, since I am white and a Trump supporter and the guy clearly expressed hatred of all people falling into that category. I know that hatred of a political or racial group not defined by the MSM and leftists as "disenfranchised" is acceptable under the law, but questioning authority is what I do best.

How much does pfather pflaggot get from soros?
Pritzker destroyed Illinois Phaker destroyed the Chicago archdiocese
Yes they did. Good for them.
Breaking News: Lu has also confessed to hanging a noose at the Obama Presidential Center construction site in 2021.
And what is going on with the dispatchers at the OEMC? Has anyone been fired? Has anyone quit in an effort to minimize the repercussions like jail time? Karma is a b@#ch! Someone asked this question in a previous discussion, “does the discharged loan have to be reported as income?” The answer is yes (for the majority of the dispatchers and everyone else who fraudulently obtained the loan or improperly used the loan proceeds). Mr. Tax Man, please set up shop at the Chicago OEMC to get your numbers, you will earn a promotion, rise through the ranks, and make a name for yourself, become the next Elliot Ness, “She gone! You miss me long time?”
"Hate Crime" for offenses on Red Line, CTA? "White Privilege" in Gary Indiana? Crickets.....
Tremendous observation - 100% spot-on.
What a bunch of maroons.
Being a DemonRat means never having to say that you were wrong or that you are sorry.
John in Indy
Major Crimes Unit spent 30k on straight and overtime, will that check or venmo?
fake news, father flakey,jb,conehead make every story they can about racism.
police, citizens use self defense against black criminals is not racism it's self defense.
As I understand it the UIC student self-identified to NBC, so shouldn't the student get the $10K?
After the interview, two Qs remain:
Is he just an American kid with a whoafully inadequate and likely over priced education?
Does he claim dual citizenship status?
amazing how news media fails to report the red maga hat. hoping it would be destroyed by the fire . dividing people by race rather than reporting the facts. another crazy liberal democrat that hates Trump.
Hang the POS by his nutsack if he has one
NOW.. The Left will BACK him and say he was simply practicing his 1st Amendment rights to protest Trump and burn the Orange man's MAGA cap.
After all
. Was there really any damage to Park property?
Wgn black reporter went on air and identified an Arlington Hts. Sexual Assault Ofd.as a WHITE MALE. Last week a wgn reporter repeatedly refused to identify a Sexual Assault Ofd's race. He was black. Same crime, same locale, but obvious race reporting bias. Wgn could have properly done an effective job identifying the Ofd. in order to prevent another crime.
UIC Chicago is a total left wing indoctrination factory. Executive staff has quit , or been shown the door because they are responsible crap that goes on there. That place is a steamy hot pile of dog mess.
Deport thise commie chinese exchange students.
-Father pfelcher was busy……….
+1
Nothing even happened. Literally nothing. A few arrest and that’s it.
He's forgiven because he says he hates Trump, hates Trump supporters and says Trump should "end". Democrats will put him on a tee shirt and have him run for congress.
Retired UIC professor Bill Ayers should be the ghostwriter for his idiots life story. Dreams of My Burning Cross. A political future looks bright!
I wonder how long it took the left and media to put their heads together and noodle out this weak motive?
Democrats and media have zero credibility.
I was more offended when I was called "a deplorable" and "garbage"
At least no root beer was involved. How is the tree doing after libtard acted the fool. Does gov fatfuck feel like a fool now. And fool ugly play toddler Flagler. Assholes trying to incite shit. Fools
why is hatred against whites not recognized?
Don't know many Asians who are members of the Ku Klux Klan.
Think he went with Quiznos toasted Italian
What kind of wood was it? How big? We taking 4x4 timbers? Did he used cartage bolts or lag bolts. Did the like commie take wood shop in HS?
We need details
WGN news never reported the hat…….I’m so sick of this shit…….
Media is part of the leftist plan to cause enmity between the citizens, they hope they can ignite enough civil disorder so that they can step in and trample our liberties.
€0V1D I9 was their test run to see how far they can push us. And many surprisingly from our own ranks acquiesced. This gave them the green light to continue, the next time it will be worse than 2020.
President Trump’s Justice Department better start the criminal proceedings quick, because if the left steals the mid term elections, we are on our own.
It's a mess. You should see the students. Not one male that attends classes there has any testosterone. The rest are fat, ugly, blue hair, pink hair, hate this country and can't decide what sex or species they are.
Thank you gentrification !
Your last comment is soooooo spot on. The population gets EXACTLY the kind of political jagoffs that it votes (asks) for.
I wonder if mama Lu came to our country and dropped this turd Merlin on our soil just to try and get citizenship for the good little commie?
This looks like a war plan folks, we need the Supreme Court to come down with the correct decision on birthright citizenship, and then immediately have the military remove these hostile combatants from our country. The leftists who have planned this and have run roughshod all over our Constitution and country since the 60’s need to be dealt with too.
That would be UofC (The University of Chicago), this is UIC, but I get it.
Soooooo true.
It is a mess. The students are very rabid anti-America.
Revoke his green card.
go in bridgeview, worth,Oak Lawn several autistic, learning centers.
another spoiled liberal from Naperville never worked a day in his life'
Hilarious. Shows the utter idiocy of the left on all fronts.
I cannot help but wonder if Merlin Lu is just trying to stir the pot some more at the behest of the CCP.. Gotta pay those student loans someway....
It's simply disturbing to see a young man who attends UIC, have such a twisted mind and pent up anger for the President. And the CDP to those murals is absolutely too much. Diks gotta find that "artist". And I believe they will! In a day or so.🍀🍀
I am so glad that I'm....
Retired, 30+
No victim, no crime...
Opportunity lost for the race hustlers, activist's and reverend's to sew racial discord
Shame how opportunists like our mayor and governor always gall back on race.
No follow up news from WGN news🤔🤔 they are pathetic
Lu is a suspected member of the Kru Krux Kran.
So it can't be a hate crime because it was against a white guy(s) and the perp was Asian? Part of his rant was the typical socialist anti money thing. He is from an affluent town (Naperville) played competitive tennis and has 4 years at UIC. Sounds like a LOT of money got him through all of that. I am really glad that I don't under these people's ideology, but I'm going to need a cheat sheet for how their selective rule system works.
Cause its all nonsense..news media doesnt know how to cover real news.
Why the fuck are you watching WGN?
Do you know any members?
Yeah, the commie leftists at WGN haven't said word one about the offender being Asian. Basically implying it's Whitey responsible. Same thing with dirtbag Brandon.
WGN = Worthless Garbage Nonsense…….
I’m pretty sure targeting a religious group would make this a hate crime. He targeted the cross burning at CHRISTIANS. His words “MAGA Christian nationalist supporters“ is what his cross burning was what he/ her/it was his intended for.
HOWS bomb and arson doing on the FELONY FIREWORK case Alderman Byron sygho lopez generated? Fyi the video was laughable he really wants to be a congressman like his hero A.O.C...
This was not manufactured outrage or a false flag operation. The guy is just fking stupid. He really had no idea about the historical meaning of a burning cross. And most of the people who saw it as they drove by probably never even saw the maga hat because it had, you know, burned up. The idiot even admits he wasn’t smart to do this because he should’ve figured out a better way to protest.
Did you even read the interview with the doofus? This was not a false flag operation.
The guy was protesting DT. He did it badly and it backfired. The end.
Please explain how this is a fake hate crime.
Deport him back to the communist country he came from - revoke his green card. If he was born here, deport his parents and extended family then.
WGN is more interested in the Taylor Swift wedding.So out of touch with reality. Beginning to slide like the Chicago tribune and Sun times several years ago.
It'll be his thesis.
If you read the CWB piece about this idiot you you will figure out that this was not a false flag operation or a hoax, but just a protest by a dummy who had absolutely no idea what he was doing.
Coming to you from our crack reporter Rosanne Rosanadana (SNL). Never Mind !
Really. We have enough Illinois politicians to hate. No need to go national.
WGN is there for entertainment. Anything considered news is just incidental.
WGN news has a DEI news director.
It sounds like the kind of shit, southern poverty law would Orchestra, and the racist, bigoted mental midget mayor jumped right it playing the old tired ass race card as usual because that’s all this dumb ass mother fucker has !
"Wanna try my kung fu?"
The "false flag" wasn't the initial burning
The False Flag was what the democrats did with it afterward with their messaging that was all over the media. They knew the media wouldn't correct their own misreporting
The "false flag" wasn't the initial burning

It was definitely manufacture outrage
WGN news reported this as a anti black hate crime even tho they nee the truth. Anti cop DEI news director slanrs all the stories. Then they broadcast commercials PR crap as news
Gee, maybe the hat went up in flames before the media got there???
There is no Klan in Chicago. But there is LaRaza and BLM.

And you believe him? Hope you aren’t the police.
City of Chicago is the victim/complainant, he destroyed public property, started a bonfire in a park, committed a hate crime, hell I’ll sign a complaint, he disturbed my peace.
Sheesh, what are they hiring today?
You have now offended the honor of my family AND the Shaolin Temple...You must pay!
Merlin seems a bit slow.
I’ve seen two or three different videos of the burning cross. But none of them showed a red maga hat at the top. Because maybe it was - you know - burned up.
So anytime someone twists the truth about what really happened it is now turned into a false flag operation? OK, whatever.
Did the SPLC pay for the cross, hat, and lighter?
The new stations finally took the pixelation away from the burning cross videos. I didn’t see a hat in any of them. Just saying.
I don’t think anybody saw the hat. It burned up! Goof.
Definitely.
If they did, why would they have the guy put a Maga hat on the top? Wouldn’t they instead have him put up something related to the usual groups cross burning refers to?
So many racial hate crime hoaxes
Tawana Brawley
Duke Lacrose Team rape hoax
Rodney King
Michael Brown BLM Black Lies Matter
Saint Trayvon Martin NOT
Fentanyl Floyd George Floyd
Jussie Smollett
Even Emmett Till morality play is a wild exaggeration
Anyone familiar with the story “ the Boy Who Cried Wolf “?
