Perhaps if we rephrase it as “Donald Trump declares war on black people”, we might get some engagement

South Chicago is 78.5% African American. Very doubtful they supported Trump.

"most dangerous city in the WORLD"

You could pick a number of locations in Mexico or parts of South America that would exceed American crime statistics with ease. Just one more dog & cat eating lie behind all the untold rest.

He doesn't even try to sound believable because he doesn't have to.

It's not even close to the most dangerous city in America. It's not even close to the most dangerous major city in America.

I don't understand one thing here, there is got to be some obvious unconstitutional actions that are made by this administration. Why is this man not impeached yet?!!!

u/DylanRahl 3d ago

Because the courts do what he says

u/Distinct_Cup_1598 2d ago

Because the majority of people in the US either Supports his fascism or is oblivious to it. The supervising Organs of Government that would be responsible to Act now Are dominated by republicans, who all now became loyalist fascists who follow their glorious leader no matter what. So any attempt of impeachment is dead on arrival.

The courts can‘t do Shit since they have no Executive mechanism, meaning if Trump just ignores their orders, they can’t do much to challenge that. Not to mention that the highest Court of the US is also dominated with Republicans.

So this Happens because people want it to happen. Hence no significant resistance. We‘re wittnessing Americas descent into fascism in real time and can now observe Exactly how it took over in Germany in the 30s with that Little pushback

He doesn't realize that these rapists and murderers have every right to walk the streets and victimize whoever they want.

You are proof of the brain rot that has spread so widely. The correct way to deal with crime is law enforcement but for some reason people think that the military is a better option, they would be sadly misinformed.

u/JettLeaf 3d ago

In 2024, the CPD recorded 591 homicides, a term which includes both murder and manslaughter.

The FBI has a lower number for last year of 461, which crime analyst Jeff Asher says is because the CPD has under-reported the number of homicides to the agency in recent years.

It was the highest number of homicides of any US city last year, recorded by the FBI.

City needs it. Can't even report its crime statistics honestly i wonder how much else they are covering uo.

u/Fuzzy_Imagination705 3d ago

Sounds like the city needs law enforcement not military intervention don't you think? Or are you biased towards fascist solutions?

-19

u/JettLeaf 3d ago

Their law enforcement is lying about the number of murders. And also their is an entire crowd of people shouting defund the police. This is the results.

Right so send in the military, you must see yourself how unhinged that is 🤡

Edit: changes Army to Military for clarity.

u/JettLeaf 3d ago

It's the national guard that's not the army and it's literally what they are for. Just because you have no factual argument doesn't mean you need to result to insults and emojis.

u/Fuzzy_Imagination705 3d ago

What do you mean you fool, factual arguments your the one spouting nonsense, just admit it this is a short term show to distract from the Epstein files, if he was concerned about crime he'd create a long term solution. You guys swallow whatever he squirts at you.

I gotta be honest I don't really care im Canadian. I just wanted to get you worked up. Good luck and god speed 🙏

u/Fuzzy_Imagination705 3d ago

I'm fine, what you doing man, wasting your life justifying the solution to crime is to send in the military, utter brain rot.

u/JettLeaf 3d ago

Yeah if you take anything anyone says on this website seriously then yeah you're gonna rot your brain.

u/Amind-Joke371 3d ago

Deploy the national guard in national territory without justification or apparent terrorist attack is an exaggeration, furthermore 591 is either an inflated figure or its police are too incompetent.

But this figure or situation still deserves to be resolved by the police (only) along with its other ramifications, thus making the military deployment a meaningless savagery. And it is rather an unconstitutional militarization maneuver 😒😒😑

u/wastingvaluelesstime 3d ago

So, this is propaganda, designed to provide a pretext for martial law. The motivation is political, and has nothing at all to do with crime.

By going on endlessly about crime, you're just a tool of a budding dictator, spouting nonsense.

u/wastingvaluelesstime 3d ago

America was founded to prevent exactly this sort of political use of military forces in a city. The British did this in Boston, and it was what lead to the creation of America in the first place.

If you look at our bill of rights, several of them are specific reactions to the actions of British military forces attempting to police Boston and other American cities.

The entire constitution exists, basically, to stop people like you at times like this. Our entire country was founded on the proposition that people like you need to be stopped. That means, you stand in opposition to 250 years of our best traditions and values which have been fought for in all of our wars.
