The Left Has Allowed Crime to Flourish in Chicago—Now They’re Outraged About Closure of Walmart Stores (VIDEO)

As recently reported on Def-Con News—click HERE to go to the April 13, 2023, article—Walmart is closing four stores in Chicago.

This from thegatewaypundit.com.

The leadership at Walmart never came out and said it, but shoplifting and theft are obviously the problems that have led to these stores losing millions and deciding to close.

And now, the [democrats communists/globalists] who run Chicago and have allowed crime to flourish in the city, are outraged at Walmart for pulling out of the community.

Book Club Chicago reported:

South Side Leaders demand meeting with Walmart, threaten boycott as mega-retailer closes four neighborhood stores.

Aziz Rupshi was at the doctor’s office with his mother when he found out Chatham’s Walmart, where he owns and operates a Subway sandwich shop, would soon close.

Rupshi got the word as many others did: local news.

He said:

I’ve run my shop inside the South Side Walmart for years. The grocery store is constantly humming with customers.

He continued:

I looked it up at the TV [at the doctor’s office], and I was like, ‘That’s our store.’ Nobody told us. No notification, no nothing.

Rupshi joined fellow business owners, South Side community leaders and elected officials in a Thursday protest outside the Chatham store to excoriate Walmart officials for abruptly closing four full-service locations, primarily on the South and West sides, due to poor sales…

Pfleger said:

Walmart officials should put the brakes on and meet with the community before closing up shop Sunday.

Pfleger also said:

Leaders are prepared to host another demonstration outside an Evergreen Park location.

They’ll also boycott the company, he said:

If the company refuses to cooperate, leaving communities with large, empty buildings and a desert of resources.

Pfleger added:

If Walmart leaves us, we will leave Walmart.

Alderman-elect William Hall (6th) said:

Walmart has demonstrated corporate racism and corporate greed.

If Walmart doesn’t agree to invest in the community, we will disinvest across the nation.

Check out the short video below. It’s entertaining, to say the least.

If people in Chicago are angry about Walmart leaving, they should direct their rage at these community leaders who have allowed criminals to act without any consequences.
