Democrat Mayor of Chicago Thrashes Media for Being Mean to Criminals

Brandon Johnson criticizes a reporter for using the term “mob” and says we should instead call them “large gatherings.”

Chicago voted for this. Good luck.

Ooofff! This is embarrassing. Mayor Brandon Johnson apparently doesn’t understand that “mob action” is a legitimate legal term that perfectly describes the 300-400 “youths” who destroyed a 7-Eleven this weekend. It doesn’t mean that we’re calling them descendants of Big Al Capone… pic.twitter.com/p3lsvLKrnt

Left-wing Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson once again blasted efforts to condemn young criminals when he rejected a reporter’s use of the word “mob” to describe dozens of looters on Wednesday. Johnson gave a public press conference following the arrest of 40 people between the ages of 12-20 for reckless conduct misdemeanors in Chicago’s South Loop on Sunday night. It was estimated that approximately 300–400 people gathered and began to take part in “disorderly” behavior and attempted to loot a convenience store. The Chicago mayor provided updates regarding the situation but took issue after a reporter described the massive group as a “mob” (Fox News).

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson chastises reporter for using the word “mob” to describe huge crowd of teens looting store, prefers “large gathering” instead

Chicago somehow, some way, found a way to elect a mayor even more delusional than Lori Lightfoot.

He’s like Lori Lightfoot but even more woke.

It’s like Chicago elected a self-righteous DEI educator and HR professional to run the entire city.

A large mob of teens, more than 3 dozen, looted and ransacked a convenience store and Brandon Johnson has the gall to tutt tutt a reporter for using a non-PC term.

That’s not appropriate. We’re not talking about mob actions. I didn’t say that… Respectfully, these large gatherings… it’s important that we speak of these dynamics in an appropriate way.

Even if this 7-11 has insurance, it was looted, looting is a crime, and the looters deserve to be demonized and prosecuted. pic.twitter.com/UpbWIdUTuc

He’s literally a woke HR director pretending to be a mayor. Gangs of teens are overrunning entire neighborhoods, but he is MUCH more concerned about correcting you if you say something not woke.

It’s not a “mob” when they rob a store. It’s a “large gathering.”

It’s mostly peaceful. Except that everyone there was arrested for robbery and disorderly conduct. But a mob is a very specific thing. I don’t know what it is, but if it’s a group of black kids, then that’s not it. You must not believe the evidence of your own eyes!
