The Chicago police have lots of experience dealing with this kind of thing. I would be shocked if anything gets out of control. Also, in my experience, they can be very smart and very firm when they want to.

Don’t play fk around and find out with CPD. I know people that found out.

They won't go to jail... sleroy49 Aug 2024 #63

Assholes. Arrest them. Nonviolent protest is one thing. Becoming hoodlums is quite another. hlthe2b Aug 2024 #7

In what way are they violent? orthoclad Aug 2024 #62

Given I said IF they become violent, you tell me! Stop trying to start a damned fight here. hlthe2b Aug 2024 #77

There's no "if" in your reply #7 muriel_volestrangler Aug 2024 #82

Unless YOU are advocating for violence, we have no disagreement, try as you might to suggest otherwise. hlthe2b Aug 2024 #85

You didn't write the OP, and there's no "if" there either. Getting through barriers is not "violent" muriel_volestrangler Aug 2024 #87

NOPE hlthe2b Aug 2024 #88

OK, it's clear that you need definitions of 'violence' muriel_volestrangler Aug 2024 #89

That you want maximal violence & harm to come to this group, rather than peaceful protest is eviden--t take it elsewhere hlthe2b Aug 2024 #91

I'm not advocating for violence towards anyone. It's ridiculous of you to suggest that. muriel_volestrangler Aug 2024 #92

Seriously? Geechie Aug 2024 #66

Did they force their way through a barrier? edisdead Aug 2024 #70

Why do you "have to assume that"? muriel_volestrangler Aug 2024 #83

I SAID IF THEY BECOME VIOLENT. Did you even read my post? hlthe2b Aug 2024 #75

One, where did you say "if?" Geechie Aug 2024 #78

Unless YOU are advocating for violence, we have no disagreement, try as you might to suggest otherwise. hlthe2b Aug 2024 #86
