Hundreds of teenagers flood into downtown Chicago, smashing car windows, prompting police response

Protecting yourself from domestic terrorism should unquestionably be legal. My heart breaks for the man being beaten in his car.

Since these kids are allowed to get away with these types of things, it will only get worse unless the cops & judges punish these hooligans

As a person who works at a school, I speak to staff at times of the inevitability of the same thing seen here, and I always state that it will happen (as we see here now) and will continue to happen, because we have no realistic consequences that we leverage to students for bad behavior, and what little we can do to offset bad behavior is made worse by a lack of even half-decent parenting at home (and worse yet, it’s caused largely because there are mostly single parent homes filled with overwhelmed and defeated parents that feel like they have no say in their parenting, so they let their children run the household – worse yet, at school, they get the same message – that they run the school). Sadly, this (as we are seeing) will lead to a generation of youth that will be commiting more brazen crimes at younger ages, and with less of a redeeming conscience to dissuade them from the acts they will commit. All in all, when they do things like this, it’s a future learning experience for them to look back on and say,”Man, I survived my youth, did this and that, and I’m not like that anymore now,” but at the cost of others and at the cost of their lives – most possibly. I always remind myself to educate and help where I can and how I can, but I also tell myself consistently that I refuse to be anyone’s learning experience – at the threat of my health and wellbeing – and they are quick to take it to that point nowadays, and spit out a half-hearted, “I’m sorry,” much later – if at all.
This isn’t the last of it unfortunately. If we thought prisons were full from the 1980’s on up to the not too recent present, we got another wave coming, and plenty of violence to precede the incarcerations – no doubt – as this is just the tip of the titanic iceberg.

I was listening to the police scanner and because of this happening they had a disregard 100 911 calls. Absolutely terrible these kids are doing crap like this. So disgusting. Where is their parents? If I ever did this as a kid my mom would have ripped my arms off! 80’s and 90’s parents didn’t play! That’s what’s wrong with these kids these days they don’t get an ass whooping!
