Mayor Lori Lightfoot of Chicago is taking her city back from the rioters.
Well, one block of it, at least.
Mayor Lori Lightfoot defended the Chicago Police Department’s ban on protesters being able to demonstrate on the block where she lives, telling reporters Thursday that she and her family at times require heightened security because of threats she receives daily.
Lightfoot refused to elaborate on the specific threats, but said she receives them daily against herself, her wife and her home. Comparisons to how the Police Department has protected previous mayors’ homes, such as Rahm Emanuel’s Ravenswood residence, are unfair because “this is a different time like no other,” Lightfoot told reporters.
“I think that residents of this city, understanding the nature of the threats that we are receiving on a daily basis, on a daily basis, understand I have a right to make sure that my home is secure,” Lightfoot said.
Chicago is now Afghanistan where there are firebases that are secure while the surrounding countryside is under the control of the insurgents.

Maybe she should buy a gun...
I dunno, John. From what I hear, guns murder people.
I'd lay money she's including "F off and die" as a death threat. That's the usual game.
