A Democratic leader in Chicago is decrying the city’s response to crime, saying innocent people are being “hunted down like prey.”
Democratic Chicago alderman Raymond Lopez told “America Reports” on Tuesday that “things like robbery, burglary, arson, assault, even threatening elected officials like myself, do not warrant you being held on bond anymore in the state of Illinois, and criminals are taking note,”
“They become emboldened, and the deafening cry is not heard by the politicians demanding change. They only sit back as you saw, and try to stick to the script, even when the public refuses to participate.”
Lopez told FOX News that voters are noticing that when they elect “socialists or ultra progressives” they wind up with “a tone-deaf leadership.”
