**Chaos**
As Chicago braces for the upcoming Democratic National Convention, the city is inundated with preparations for protests that threaten to overshadow the event altogether.
Businesses across downtown are taking drastic measures, boarding up their windows in anticipation of "mostly peaceful protests" that have become synonymous with Democratic gatherings.
The owner of Syd Jerome menswear, Scott Shapiro, expressed concerns after enduring vandalism multiple times. He took proactive steps to protect his store ahead of the convention, stating, "We want to sleep a little more soundly at night, and this gives us a little security."
Local officials are not only assisting businesses in their preparations but are also gearing up for potential mass arrests. The Cook County Circuit Court has announced it is clearing jail space to handle possible overflow from protests expected to begin Monday. Judge Timothy C. Evans emphasized the necessity of readiness, noting the court system will remain open longer to accommodate any disturbances that arise.
Fundamental to this uproar is the “Coalition to March on the DNC,” a group comprising around 200 anti-Israel organizations. The city has given them the green light to protest, even after initially barring certain elements like sound systems. In an ironic twist, a pro-Israel group has also received permission to demonstrate, showcasing the divided sentiments that will surely take center stage amidst the DNC's planned festivities.
This situation highlights the stark contrast between how local businesses are left to fend for themselves amid the chaos and how the Democratic establishment fails to take the necessary precautions for public safety.
With mass protests looming and a mayor who seems unwilling to curb the unrest, the optics for the Democratic Party are grim. Chicago’s history of violence and looting linked to such gatherings looms large, suggesting that while Democrats celebrate their convention, the reality of chaos is already unfolding.
Watching as local business owners embark on a costly yet necessary step to protect their lively hood, it becomes apparent who truly bears the burden of the progressive policies that plague urban America. As unrest brews, it will be interesting to monitor the consequences for the Democratic Party as they take the stage under the shadow of chaos.
