Despite this video evidence, the Mayor-Elect can be quoted as saying “Demonizing Children is WRONG!” . See a clip of that moment below…

Stealing a car and setting it a blaze is not a silly decision.

Pummeling two innocents and a CTA employee is not a silly decision.

Jumping on cars, looting, and vandalizing is not a silly decision.

It's all violent, criminal behavior, and it deserves to be demonized, period. pic.twitter.com/t0PpYxhvnq

Johnson is not slated to take over his elected position of Mayor until May 15th.

The Townhouse reports on this insane statement….

Chicago Mayor-elect Brandon Johnson (D) continued to defend the rioting that broke out in the heart of downtown last weekend, which was caused by a large number of black youths causing mayhem in the Loop during the warm evenings. Damage to cars and buildings were done and people were attacked at random with Chicago police officers struggling to contain the violence. Two children were shot as a result of the chaos.

Johnson said it is counter-productive to demonize children and young people make “silly decisions.”

“Demonizing children is wrong! We have to keep them safe as well. Have you ever taught middle school? I have. Have you ever raised young people? Do you understand the risks that young people take just because they are young? Do you that home plate is at the bottom of my stairs? I found that out when my son was sliding down those stairs trying to score! They’re young, sometimes they make silly decisions! They do!” Johnson stated.

We don’t need to defend rioters, we need to arrest them. We need to arrest them and put them behind bars for a very long time.

Lawless chaos can never be tolerated.
