    I’m mostly surprised to see Chicago cops acting reasonable. I’m from here. The Union must have gotten the stern talking to. For those that don’t know, the police union in Chicago is basically a second government. They are stupidly powerful. I’m pro-union in general, but that particular union needs to be broken up.

      Bruh, that high ranking cop ain’t on the front lines to keep protestors under control, it’s to keep the cops under control…

      He isn’t there because he wants to be, it’s from pressure of the city government who are doing it because they’re getting pressure from the DNC.

      And he knows if he’s not physically there, cops are gonna cop.
