Chicago police scrambled to respond to hundreds of teenagers swarming the Lakeview neighborhood and terrorizing businesses and neighborhoods on Monday evening.
“They were jumping on cars, breaking glass, throwing things. I know my personal automobile was used as a bar for people,” a witness told WGN-TV.
The woman told WGN that she called police but got a distressing response.
“I was told that there was nothing they could do,” the concerned resident said. “They were so overwhelmed at the moment that there were just way too many calls coming in.”
The takeover started when the teenagers poured out of the Belmont Red Line stop on the Chicago “L” train at about 10 p.m.
Video from the incident showed many of the teenagers dancing on top of cars and drinking in the streets.
Residents of the neighborhood said they discovered vandalism to their cars, including broken windows and large dents.
One restaurant owner told WGN that they immediately closed their business after seeing the teenagers causing chaos. They watched over the business all night to prevent any vandalism.
Resident Grace Rohen told WGN that she was terrified and heard some gunshots overnight.
“It has been very chaotic and as somebody who’s lived in Lakeview for honestly the past three years, it’s very scary to see how things have changed over time,” said Rohen.
A local official helped the clean-up effort on Tuesday and issued a statement.
“I will be meeting with the 19th district police, CTA, and others to discuss what took place and identify ways we can prevent it from occurring moving forward,” said 44th Ward Alderman Bennett Lawson. “As well as continue conversations with my colleagues on city council about how we can keep our youth from participating in these disruptive actions ”
Despite hundreds of teenagers participating in the takeover, only two people were arrested. One of the two people arrested was a 15-year-old girl who was charged with obstructing traffic and aggravated assault of a first responder.
Here’s a local news report about the teen takeover:
The Black Solution from Thomas Jefferson:
In the 18th century, the American culture not only allowed black slaves to be living in America, the economy demanded it. But Thomas Jefferson was an incredibly intelligent man. Not only a man of history, but a foreseer. He knew, (even back then), the U.S. had a problem w/ this segment of the population…and he knew the problem would not only not go away – it would get worse. What was the main ingredient of the problem, and was there a solution? Weighing the pros and cons, he could see the harbinger of things to come. What was it? Above everything in both the pro and con columns was one element, one ingredient which stood out, and which was the deal-breaker, the showstopper – it was this: Most blacks have an inherent nature for uncontrolled violence. Not mild, tempered anger like most white men. All-out violence, non-stop violence, until everything and everyone around them was dead and/or burned to the ground. To Jefferson, it appeared to be in their genetic makeup from dozens of generations before them. African tribes battling each other for supremacy and dominance. Never-ending wars of attrition.
Sidenote: 260 years later, research and modern science, (including DNA), has now proven this ‘theory’ beyond question w/ credible, overwhelming, irrefutable evidence.
Long before he became President, Jefferson knew this as a young Congressional delegate. He knew the biggest problem the U.S. faced, (both economically and culturally), was not trade or foreign policy, or expanding West. It was the control of the black population. It was controlling the violent nature of the black slave. He was also aware that the family structure was (almost) non-existent in black culture. The majority did not marry but continued to re-populate – at a staggering pace. Of course, this was only to the advantage of the plantation owner(s) whom the slaves belonged to. Commonly found, were girls as young as 14-15 already having their second child, which was easily found to be the product of another man, a brother, the father, or even the plantation owner himself. After all, he owned her as his ‘property’, and she was there at his discretion and/or for his amusement/entertainment.
So, Jefferson knew if this situation in the United States was left unabated, if the inherent nature of blacks was violence, and if they were to continue to live and work (and multiply as they had been), then the civilized society the United States was living in and enjoying would be vulnerable to nothing short of – unsustainability…as a Nation. In other words, THE NATION WOULD (ULTIMATELY) NOT BE ABLE TO SURVIVE but would be consumed into extinction w/ violence. He resolved a solution. He travailed long and hard on the subject and came up w/ the only solution available at the time: THE ELIMINATION OF ALL BLACKS FROM THE AMERICA’S.
He introduced a bill into the House which was titled A Current State of Affairs and submitted the most humane and decent solution would be to round up every black in the America’s, load them onto ships, and sail them to the Caribbean. At the time, there was more than enough room for ALL of them to be used for the sugar trade, and it would be a win-win situation for all. The blacks would be sent to one of the most temperate and beautiful climates in the world, where they could continue to multiply unabated, and continue the carnage of killing each other and burning everything in sight, (as they do now) …and we whites could live in (relative) – PEACE.
What a concept.
Of course, most southern Congressmen at the time were also some of the largest plantation owners and would have none of it. The Bill never got passed the House vote, and was DOA upon arrival to the Senate…Sad.
Result: We now have a segment of not 13% of the entire U.S. population, (actual -12.74%), which accounts for (at least) 71% of ALL crime – 71%. Think about that for just a second, and ask yourself: How much more DEI, (diversity, equity, and inclusion), do we need to allow before blacks finally say “Now, we’re all ‘equal’”? How much? The answer: You could give them EVERYTHING, and they would still want more…and so they continue to burn, and slaughter, and covet…and we continue to suffer…sad.
