So far it has been peaceful, but it gets louder every evening. There have been riots in other cities in my state. We are supposed to move into a new house in two weeks out in the country. Please just pray that my husband, kids l, and I stay safe until then.
Edit: changed “love” to “move.” I’m clearly anxious!
I live in Chicago on a major retail street. They tore the city apart limb from limb. I don’t know about other parts of the city, but here it was all blacks in shit cars. The cops just let them do it. I even heard one joke “At this point they’re lucky if they can still find stuff to loot at the dollar store.” This was as criminals were ransacking the remaining stores. The liberal mayor came on this morning to say that cops did everything they could to save the city from looters, while most literally doing nothing. I hate this city, I’ve resolved to move to a red state. I can’t even buy a gun as the state has held onto my FOID registration for over a year without processing it.
Move mountains to get out of hell, your ancestors did far more to bring you to this point.
