The Great Wall of Chicago: Because Border Walls Don’t Work, Except When They Do

You almost feel sorry for the protestors. Most of them are summer children, a generation that grew up enjoying the gentle policing techniques of Black Lives Matter, and the friendly arrest rules like, so long as you wear your mask, you’ll be released without bail. Anyway, they are about to learn that Winter is Coming. The New York Times ran an ominous story yesterday headlined, “Protesters Are Converging on Chicago. City Leaders Say They’re Prepared.

In late August, 1968, the country —and especially the Democrat party— was roiling in turmoil. A one-term Democrat President had announced he wouldn’t run again, and the final selection remained uncertain. Double assassinations of Dr. King, Jr. and Senator Robert F. Kennedy, Sr. cast a pall over the nation. A costly overseas proxy war in Vietnam raged toward its bitter denouement. The Democrats running the Chicago Convention did not intend to tolerate any blue-on-blue protests. Chaos and violence ensued.

Fortunately, everything this year totally different from 1968.

So Democrats aren’t taking any chances. First, to protect themselves from their own voters, they’ve erected a wildly expensive ‘security zone’, multiple layers of fencing strategically deployed to frustrate any unapproved group activity and preclude parading. Don’t be silly, the security fencing is NOT a border wall, because reasons. Border walls don’t work, dummies.

Second, to avoid repeating the awful optics of 1968’s Convention, Democrats have scraped all the various groups together into a single, more managable blob, a cranky coalition of over two hundred different protest groups. They will all march —together! united! we cannot be divided!— in a single, giant parade of complaints, but joyfully, and they will share a single deluxe, high-profile stage with a killer sound system and all the amenities— all safely outside the Democrats’ carefully fenced security perimeter.

As you can easily imagine, the unified protest coalition represents a wide range of policy concerns, including abortion ‘rights,’ labor issues, LGBTQIA++, climate change, transgender madness, and of course, Gaza. The disparate collection of interests seems unlikely only to outsiders. In reality, the mix-and-match members often interchange with each other, as various kinds of unnatural relationships come and go.

Still, presumably, they’ll split the Palestinian protestors apart from the parading drag queens into different sections. As the song goes, you gotta keep ‘em separated.

Dems celebrate segregation!
The DNC will separate races for their meetings.
Heh.

Also,
There are about 400 delegates who oppose all aid to Israel and are for “freeing Gaza.”
Rumor has it that some of them have made illegal copies of their official IDs and street demonstrators will be using these to try to enter the convention.
Those 400 also insist on getting time to speak on their issue.
The police admit they are outnumbered.
The wall will probably not hold.
And the hotels where delegates are staying are all surrounded by demonstrators, so how will they even get to the convention?

Leftist mobs are inherently violent. Violence is their goal, not their message. Violence IS the message; “Do as we demand, or else… THIS.” Unlike right-wing protests, such as January 6th, the leftist mobs don’t require a trigger to erupt into violence; it simply WILL happen.

One leader already vowed that just because the city designated a parade/protest route, they are not obligated abide by it. Once the violence starts, it won’t be stopped. It will happen because the violence is the point. After all, they are protesting in SUPPORT of unprovoked, terroristic violence.

The police don’t have a chance. Not meeting the violence with a violent response will only encourage them. Reacting with violence will only ignite a vastly overwhelming mob to MORE violence. They have learned their lesson: authority (in blue areas, and you don’t get more blue than Chicago) will submit.

This is the mess YOU have created, Democrats. Enjoy.
