The Democrat National Convention is happening in Chicago next week and local businesses are taking no chances.
The radical mobs of Israel-hating leftists are expected to be out in full force, so businesses with storefronts have already started boarding them up, assuming that there will be tons of pointless destruction.
The radical left has a reputation for destruction in situations like this. Expect to see a lot of smashed windows, fires, and graffiti after they get done with the city.
WGN News in Chicago reports:
Downtown Chicago businesses board up ahead of Democratic National Convention
A number of businesses in the city’s business district have covered windows and doors with plywood to better protect the buildings should demonstrations during next week’s Democratic National Convention turn unruly.
Scott Shapiro of Syd Jerome Menswear is among the businesses that chose to reinforce their windows, saying he’s had “zero indication” of any additional protections in the Loop. The men’s clothing shop is located on Madison Street, just down the block from City Hall and along the route to the United Center.
Shapiro said his storefront has been damaged on four previous occasions, with windows broken merchandise looted and other property damage.
“We know from past experiences something could ensue so we want to be proactive and get ahead of it,” he said.
Crews with a business called Chicago Board Up Services say they’ve boarded up at least a dozen locations around the West Loop, downtown and Daley Plaza and have plans to work on additional businesses weekend.
Here’s the video report:
No one had to do this during the Republican convention.
Weird. They didn’t have to do this for the Republican National Convention.

Why is the left so intent on destruction? It has become what they are known for.
Armed security with salt loaded shotguns will make those morons think twice before doing something stupid.
Oh I’m sure it will be a peaceful protest just like the B L M protesters, If something does happen I’m sure the good old judges will let them peacefully walk out, That’s the Democrats code of ethics.
The DNC should be insured OR they should be required to PAY for all damages that come to innocent business owners. Better yet, the City that welcomes them should have to PAY for all of the nonsense. IF you don’t want riff-raff around and the DNC cannot find anywhere to hold their Convention; you better believe that some cities will begin to enforce the Laws in their Town, show force and get the message that they are intolerant when they risk having to shell out MILLIONS in damages.
The DNC should have to PAY every Business that is now boarded up for lost income. If Kamala Harris can offer to pay 10K to any of the Mega-Zoom event attendees, then her campaign can reimburse these Business owners the rightful earnings.
IF Kamala’s presence and her “team” doesn’t command Respect and that her voter base BEHAVE themselves like civilized people – then perhaps they need a less contentious candidate OR she should just hold repeat talks like Joe Biden did from his Delaware basement? It’s ridiculous but it couldn’t happen to a nicer group of politicians – to have 100K protesters coming to make their week miserable
Leftist thugs damaging businesses during a leftist thug convention, does anybody else see the irony?
I’m just patiently waiting to see the carnage.
Popcorn? Check.
Moonshine? Check.
Some good weed? Check.
Bring it!
