CHICAGO, IL– On Tuesday, August 18th, Isaac Lacy, 22, reportedly robbed two people within an hour.

According to Prosecutors, Lacy walked up to a 14-year-old and another juvenile outside Boulevard Bikes, 2768 North Milwaukee, a little after 1 p.m., and asked for a cigarette. Then, he called them both racists, ripped a bike out of one of their hands telling them they cant do anything about it. 

According to the juveniles, Lacy said:

“You’re a racist and you ain’t gonna do sh*t.”

According to CWBChicago, about 30 minutes later, Lacy reportedly rode the stolen bike up to several people who were standing outside a home on the 2800 block of North Woodard in Avondale.

Lacy began this robbery the same way as the last, asking the strangers for a cigarette. Next, instead of a bike, he ripped a phone from a 23-year-old woman’s hands. When she and the witness yelled at him, Lacy became violent and challenged them to a fight.

According to a police spokesperson, Lacy noticed a Chicago PD squad car driving down the street, and quickly changed course, returned the woman’s phone.

Both victims identified Lacy as the person who robbed them, and the 14-year-old confirmed that he owned the bike in Lacy’s possession. 

Lacy is now charged with two counts of felony robbery. 

Judge Mary Marubio ordered Lacy held, and will need to post a $10,000 deposit bond in order to be released before his trial.

Here is more on the crime raging through Chicago.

CHICAGO, IL – In 1968, riots in Chicago claimed eleven lives and prompted 2,000 arrests. Those riots were inspired by the assassination of the Reverend Martin Luther King Jr., in Tennessee.

On June 3, 2020, ABC Eyewitness news reported 1,500 arrests for riot-related offenses following the death of felon George Floyd.

At the time, Floyd was under the influence of dangerous illegal drugs and was resisting arrest. Those arrests were for the weekend of May 29-31. Three days.

The riots haven’t stopped since. Every night, there is more mayhem.

This Tuesday alone, fifteen people were shot, one fatally. The day before, over 20 were shot, two fatally. Over the weekend, over 50 people were shot, five fatally.

That is a four day total of more than 85 shootings and eight fatalities.

“This is far worse than it was in 1968” according to Alderman Ed Burke. He should know. He was there.

In a May 31st conference call with public officials, Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot got an earful about how bad things were. Alderman Susan Sadlowski-Garza cried openly as she described rioters shooting at police.

Vigilante groups were being formed in lieu of, or to support, the police. Elderly members of the community have lost access to vital resources as their neighborhoods have been systematically vandalized, looted, and in some cases, destroyed.

Alderman Michelle Harris said:

“My major business district is shattered. Why would Walmart or CVS come back to our communities?”

On the day of the conference call a record was set for the most murders in a single day. On that day there were 18 murders. A higher number hasn’t been recorded by the lab responsible for tracking such statistics since it started almost sixty years ago, in 1961.

Eleven days before the conference call, eight days before the riots, and five days before George Floyd’s death, on May 20, 2020, Lori Lightfoot was a guest on CBS This Morning.

The occasion was to celebrate her first year in office as the first gay black woman to run city hall. She described her job as “hard”, even harder in a pandemic.

Even worse, Lightfoot says she is dealing with two pandemics. There is covid-19, but there is also gun violence. Homicides were up compared to the previous year despite the lock down.

Lightfoot’s response to questions about this are interesting in retrospect. This is what she said:

“That infrastructure that we rely upon to help support the work of our police department, that infrastructure`s been taken apart. That whole infrastructure`s got to be functioning and well in order for us to be able to make meaningful progress.”

Five days after saying that, Chicago had descended into anarchy.

Eighty days later, and it hasn’t stopped.

The good news is that so far, Lightfoot has rejected calls to defund police.

At the same time, she tacitly accepts the unfounded charge that systemic racism exists in police departments across the country and must be stopped. She has also rejected calls to bring in the National Guard to deal with rioters.

In between, she managed to remove two statues of Christopher Columbus, in a cowardly gesture to protesters. All this because the police are called racists by the media and elected officials are too afraid to express disagreement.

Until and unless it is proven beyond reasonable doubt, how about the press and elected officials stop libeling the police as systemic racists?

After all, rioters have committed murder in riots that were ostensibly designed to protest systemic racism. If there is no systemic racism but they have been fooled into thinking there is, they have committed murder and other crimes to protest against an illusion. That should give them something to think about in prison.

Better yet, hold the media accountable for promulgating the incendiary lie that racism is endemic in the police force. By repeating this claim over and over, regardless of evidence that undermines its validity, the media are inciting riot.

That type of free speech is no more covered by the first amendment than it is to shout “fire!” in a crowded theater. If anything, what the media has done by sensationally trumpeting the imagined evils of American law enforcement, is much worse.

A theater can hold only so many people. Once removed from the theater, the patrons no longer pose a threat to anyone. The media-inspired riots now consuming Chicago and other cities have no end in sight and many more people are engaged in them than could ever be found in a single theater, no matter how big.

The situation in Chicago was bad on the very first weekend of riots. At that time, it was already worse than the 1968 riots after the death of King. Since then, the situation has continued to worsen, in Chicago and across America, all because no one feels like standing up to the media, their elected officials, and the criminal scum that are trying to flush our country down a Socialist toilet.

It’s time to call a plumber.

Mayor Lightfoot: you aren’t doing your job. You are hurting the people of your city. Your example is encouraging the worst criminal elements of Chicago. You may not be willing to or able to fix the problem  but other people can. Let them. Call for the National Guard. Get them into Illinois, into Chicago, and get your city fixed.
