Chicago Alderman Raymond Lopez blamed the crime of the city for the political elite “Love with Crime”, while his mayor informed the reduction of the total crime rates.
“We have a political elite that is in love with crime, which stimulates criminal behavior, pushes our police officers, demonizes[s] Their work daily and elevates the perpetrators of crime as the victims of society itself, “Lopez claimed “Fox report”, Sunday. “And that kind of species in the case brought us where we are today.”
During the hearing in March, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson stated that the City of Murder City in 2024 reached its “lowest amount in five years under [his] leadership. “This is coming because Chicago was named the main capital for the killing of the nation for the 13th year in a row, he states Wirepoints analysis.
Lopez blamed Johnson and other politicians for what he called Chicago “disrespecting human life.”
“For the 13th year in a row, the disrespectful of human life is so high in the city of Chicago that you can literally have a group of 100 teenagers enjoying a warm day and you almost expect to shoot at least two or three, “Lopez said.
“And in fact, we saw it just two days ago, where a 15-year-old was shot in a crowd walking a magnificent mile,” Lopez continued. “And many of our politicians, such as Brandon Johnson and others, continue the excuses, continue to rationalize this behavior, unlike them and their parents responsible for what is happening.”

Lopez accused the mayor of lying to the true crime statistics, accusing the reported reduction of crime on fewer people who called the police.
“People don’t call 911 anymore,” Lopez said. “People are afraid. The police are unable to do their job because of the cancellation of the technology of detecting firearms and other things.”
Alderman continued to claim that politicians “deny” Crime numbers on roads or county roads considered outside the city. “South and west side [of Chicago] And mostly African -American communities “particularly affect the crime, he added.
“You are entrepreneurs trying to accomplish the American dream and vandalize, buy and destroy simply because of the location, because the mayor refuses to invite the communities for behavior that happens in them,” Lopez claimed.
“When you look at the robbery, the battery, the attacks, people simply no longer call 911,” Lopez insisted. “And if that is what you put on your victory, people refused to call 911, then you do a very bad job as mayor and really don’t understand the fact that the crime has not changed, only people are used to it.“
