Teen mobs just took over the Loop again.
They blocked roads, flashed guns, and lit fires right in the middle of the street.
This is the new normal.
Don’t buy the “youth unrest” excuses from city hall.
This is pure, unchecked lawlessness.
We saw the same thing happen last March, and all the city did was talk about more curfews that never work.
Chicago chaos: Teens shutting downtown roads, flailing guns & setting fires.
Why do they allow these groups to trash our communities without throwing their asses in jail for good?!
Enough is enough. pic.twitter.com/44zYvktNkL

This has been going on for years now. These are not "teen takeovers."
These's are black inner city teens terrorizing the public.
They did this a few years back at a nearby town, 45 min. away from Chicago, and like 500 of them came and took over the local town carnival they do… https://t.co/pZL4piQJbG

Police are totally overwhelmed, trying to chase down dozens of violent incidents every single weekend.
Small businesses in the Loop are getting hammered.
They’re losing customers and paying for extra security just to keep the windows from being smashed.
The social contract in this city is dead.
When you can’t walk downtown without dodging a mob, the city is finished.
The people at the top are just watching it happen while they hide behind their own walls.
At least five officers were struck by a driver during a “teen takeover” event early Sunday in Chicago’s West Side, only the latest in the viral trend hitting American streets.
Elsewhere, 19 people were shot and wounded on Memorial Day in the Windy City.
Hundreds of teenagers gathered at around 3:20 a.m. along Chicago’s South Loomis Street, shutting the street down as officers responded to disperse the chaos.
As officers tried to end the takeover, an 18-year-old driver hit five cops before driving over the curb and crashing into a CPD squad car, a pole, and a fence, local ABC 7 reported.
