Chicago needs a strong black woman who lives in the bullshit to come out and run for Mayor, run for Governor and show these lieing assholes up! Tell it like it really is and what’s really needed, whatever that is, i dont know and that fat liar and that uncle Tom they got running things they sure dont need what’s needed.

If a city like Chicago is going to consider a role for military forces, it must do so only within strict, transparent limits and as part of a much larger strategy. Here are some guardrails and alternatives that, in my view, would make any conversation about “sending the military” less reckless and more productive.

• Clear legal authority and narrow scope. Define precisely who would be deployed, under what law, for how long, and for what specific tasks (e.g., securing critical infrastructure, supporting logistics, assisting with medical evacuation), not broad law-enforcement duties that risk violating the Posse Comitatus principle. Any deployment should include a built-in sunset clause and require rapid judicial or legislative review.
• Rules of engagement and training that prioritize life and civil liberties. Military personnel are trained for combat, not community policing. If they must operate in civilian areas, they need de-escalation training, cultural competency briefings, and strict limits on the use of force — and independent oversight to enforce those rules.
• Clear lines of authority and accountability. Military support should augment, not replace, civilian law enforcement and social services. Command relationships must be transparent, and there must be mechanisms for documenting actions, investigating complaints, and publishing results publicly.
• Measurable goals and public reporting. Any deployment should come with clear metrics for success (reductions in shootings, response times, community safety surveys) and regular public updates so residents can judge whether the presence is helping or harming.
• Investment in the root causes of crime. A short-term security operation without investment in jobs, schools, mental-health care, housing stability, and violence-interruption programs is a bandage, not a cure. Chicago needs sustained funding for after-school programs, workforce development, trauma-informed services, and community-led violence prevention.
• Strengthened, accountable policing. Many people I know want safer streets and also want police who protect them fairly. That means investing in training on de-escalation and bias, strengthening civilian oversight boards, using data-driven strategies, and removing officers who abuse power.
• Community partnership. Residents, block clubs, local clergy, small-business owners, and community organizations must be at the table when plans are made. Solutions imposed from the top down will fail without local legitimacy.

I want fear to drive us to options that make our neighborhoods colder and our communities more afraid of those sworn to protect them. I want leaders who will use every tool thoughtfully: faster prosecutions for violent crime, smarter policing that builds trust, and long-term investments that give kids better alternatives than joining gangs. If national leaders insist on invoking the military, they must also accept the responsibility of ensuring it does not trample civil liberties, worsen trauma, or relieve elected officials of making the hard policy choices that actually reduce violence.

This is about more than headlines or grand gestures. It’s about whether we choose short-term spectacle or long-term safety. I want action — real, accountable, and rooted in evidence. And I want it to come with voices from everpp

y block in the city, not just orders from afar.
