.@GovPritzker, it has been 16 months now since Katie was killed on the streets of Urbana.
For 16 months, I have lived with the torment of knowing I was not there for my daughter’s final breaths.
Her siblings now carry a pain that will follow them for the rest of their lives.
This is generational damage done to an innocent family.
Why is this suffering not worthy of your attention? Where is your humanity?
Where is the backbone you keep telling everyone you have, or does that “backbone” only appear in front of cameras and microphones surrounded by staff, political allies, and security?
Are you truly unable to defend the policies that helped create the environment in which Katie lost her young life?
Is Illinois really this broken under your “leadership” that you cannot even speak honestly to a grieving father and lifelong Illinoisan?
Katie was loved beyond words.
Yet every day your silence tells us her life, and our pain, are not even worth acknowledging.person. She was loved beyond words.
And every day your silence tells us her life, and our pain, are not even worth acknowledging.
.@GovPritzker your reckless policies helped cost my daughter Katie her life, yet you can never seem to acknowledge families like mine.
Instead it’s always President Trump, political theater, or ideological nonsense while real people here in Illinois are left devastated.
Why is Katie never worth mentioning?
Why is there never any accountability for the policies that failed to protect her?
Why?
.@GovPritzker my daughter Katie was beautiful, she was such an amazing young woman, and yet you stay silent when it comes to acknowledging her.
Acknowledge that she could have been protected and wasn’t.
🚨Night owl warning🚨
An armed crew is working nightlife areas, robbing and sometimes kidnapping people, then using the victims' phones to drain money from their bank accounts.
At least 12 victims since April in Boystown, Wrigleyville, and River North.

The mayor of Charlotte, NC asks that we not post about this lady murdered on a Charlotte train by a repeat offender with 14 prior arrests!
I say in Iryna’s memory please share and make this go viral! A repeat offender with 14 prior arrests should not be roaming the streets of ANY city! They should be locked up!! Epic failure in the justice system!
Katie was killed by an intoxicated illegal immigrant enabled by Biden’s open border policies and Illinois sanctuary laws and they stole every future Mother’s Day she should have had. Why?
@TrumpsHurricane Go to either. And say something insulting to the Monarchy and they will lock you up just like when Sean Penn insulted Queen Elizabeth snd the told him if he de boarded his plane in Canada he would be immediately arrested
My name is John. I’m a gay man better known as the drag queen Syntax in Chicago, IL. (Picture of me in drag.)
Today (Saturday) in broad daylight 1-2PM, I was aggressively sexually assaulted (attempted r@pe appearing armed) by a black man at the famous Rainbow Lighthouse on Hollywood / Gay Beach, a place that’s been a safe daytime / travel / photo spot for gay men for decades.
(The beach where 18 yr old @LoyolaChicago student Sheridan Gordon was shot and killed by an illegal is literally the next stop north and you can see it from the pier.)
I was relaxing on my towel like I have every summer for nearly 10 years. After others left, a black man who had apparently been waiting for me to be alone appeared and blocked the only exit to the pier. He was holding his dick in one hand saying “suck muh dick” and he pushed a concealed object at me (a weapon) in the other hand inside his hoodie.
I stayed calm, told him “I’m good,” and used a fake work phone call to de-escalate and create distance while I dialed 911. A couple arrived behind him, which briefly made him stop, but he then pulled it out again and started jerking off in front of all of us.
They got scared and left. I tried to film discreetly for evidence without escalating him. Between the couple and me filming, he eventually left.
Police took over 15 minutes to arrive and anything could’ve happened in that time. I am a large man and he felt comfortable doing this like he does this regularly.
This is what gay men get in return for supporting our money laundering/pro-crime/anti-police/far-left mayor, governor, and government in Chicago and America.
The picture I took of what used to be a beautiful rainbow 🌈 gay landmark shows what modern extremist Democrats do to a city and to our safety.
The police could not find him and I was told to call the non-emergency line which is not being answered and hasn’t been functional for weeks because police can’t keep up with all the Chicago crime. (Crime that supposedly doesn’t exist and is a racist conspiracy, but I’ve had two previous robbery attempts by black men on the CTA Red Line.)
This possibly armed rap!st is still at large.
Videos in comments. (The picture shows my stuff on the right and where he moved to from blocking the exit when the couple arrived and I began filming.)

A city crew was installing a CPD surveillance camera when prosecutors say two masked men walked up and ordered them to “Move the f****** cameras.”
Twenty minutes later, cops allegedly found both men carrying guns on a nearby playground.

@John_Kass This may be my favorite column you ever wrote.Respect for your beloved wife, for 25 years living in same house with your mother. Respect for you, Sir, and brothers, for loving and caring for your mother.May the words of the Nicene Creed give you comfort and hope.....
God bless the Gorman family. At a time when they are suffering the worst imaginable pain, they are demonstrating incredible courage by boldly stating the truth: their daughter Sheridan’s murder was completely preventable.
Sheridan’s death was horrific and tragic—and it was the predictable consequence of Democrats’ reckless mass migration policies at the federal, state, and local levels.
Sheridan Gorman was not in the "wrong place, wrong time,” as a Democrat alderwoman in Chicago tried to spin it.
No.
She was an innocent American who was exactly where she was supposed to be.
The only person in the "wrong place at the wrong time" was the illegal alien murderer who killed her.
If it weren't for the Democrats' open border policies, her murderer would’ve never been in our country.
If it weren’t for Democrats’ refusal to enforce our immigration laws, her murderer would’ve been deported YEARS ago.
If it weren't for the Democrats' soft-on-crime policies, her murderer would’ve been LOCKED UP in prison rather than on the streets to terrorize Americans.
If it weren’t for the Democrats’ sanctuary policies, her murderer would’ve been turned over to ICE for deportation after any one of his multiple prior arrests rather than unleashed to murder an American.
These were all deliberate policy choices. Sheridan’s mother is exactly right—it was a choice. It was a choice between the illegal alien murderer and Sheridan Gorman. And Democrats chose the murderer.
Democrats chose the illegal alien murderer over Sheridan when they opened the border.
Democrats chose the illegal alien murderer over Sheridan when they adopted sanctuary policies.
Democrats chose the illegal alien murderer over Sheridan when they released him from custody—twice—rather than deport him.
The first obligation of government is to prevent its citizens from murderous foreign invaders.
Democrats have betrayed that most fundamental duty to the American nation and our citizenry due to their higher loyalty to a radical leftist theology.
That radical political theology views America as fundamentally evil nation whose sin can only be expiated by abandoning our sovereignty and sacrificing American sons and daughters on the altar of false compassion.
It’s a political theology of suicidal empathy that puts the illegal alien murderer first and the murdered American daughter and her family last.
And it’s a political theology that Americans reject—and have rejected repeatedly at the polls.
We in Congress must be clear-eyed about the fight we are in. For months, the Democrats in Congress have defunded DHS to thwart the efforts of ICE and CBP—precisely the federal agents whose job it is to prevent murders like Sheridan Gorman’s.
We cannot give an inch. We owe it to every American mother and father to protect every American son and daughter from these preventable crimes.
