From Law Enforcement Today:
Chicago mayor supports riots in other parts of the city, then has protesters arrested outside her own home
In recent months, protesters have shut down streets, shattered storefronts and marched the Magnificent Mile.
However, try to protest six miles away from the Mag Mile, outside Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s Logan Square home, and that appears to be grounds for arrest. Six protesters learned that lesson earlier this month.
On August 22, police arrested the group who had gathered outside the mayor’s house. The Police Tribune reported that none of the six are from Illinois.
Mayor Lightfoot lives near West Wrightwood Avenue and North Kimball Avenue.
That’s where police were reportedly called to intervene late at night, after protesters showed up and refused to leave.
They ultimately arrested four women and two men.
Of course. The rioters can loot the fancy stores and invade people's housing areas but the Mayor is sacrosanct. Can't go worrying her little malformed head now can we... I love that they are out of state talent. They crossed state lines to riot.
Meanwhile, the violence continues unabated. From Hey Jackass:
Week in Progress (8/30 – 9/5)

Rember, this is looking at yesterday (Sunday) and the first couple hours of today. 38 shootings and five homicides. She really has that city under control.
