This is really quite incredible. Wheeler was just forced out of his $800,000 condo by communist rioters and he is continuing to undermine the ability of police to deal with the violence and chaos throughout the city. The rioting has been going on for most of the year now.
Regardless of what anybody thinks, tear gas is one of the most effective ways to stop rioting so obviously Wheeler has an interest in allowing the rioting to continue. Don’t be surprised to see other cities run by communist shitlibs to follow suit, since they also seem to have a vested interest in making their cities as unlivable as possible for normal people.
