As Twitchy reported earlier, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot stepped into the Roe v. Wade debate, saying that the Supreme Court was coming for her and her friends in the LGBTQ community next. She then upped the ante by saying, “This moment has to be a call to arms.” If anyone knows a thing about guns, it’s the mayor of Chicago — her city has proved to have an ample supply.
To my friends in the LGBTQ+ community—the Supreme Court is coming for us next. This moment has to be a call to arms.

We will not surrender our rights without a fight—a fight to victory!

Plenty of people called out Lightfoot for her call to arms, but it was Rep. Lauren Boebert who got under her skin by calling her an insurrectionist.
Insurrectionist. https://t.co/G7l4LuARnj

Excuse me. Insurrection is your thing. Not ours. https://t.co/5KpcPpC66s

Huh … the Left takes “insurrectionist” as well as they do “groomer.” We’ll make a note.
You literally, verbatim, typed that this was “a call to arms” against SCOTUS. https://t.co/DiqszZgf9F

You literally just tweeted a call to arms and told your people to fight… Resign, you insurrectionist trash.

You literally said “call to arms”.

So do tell, who's in your crosshairs. Call to arms?

So when 'your side' does it, it's protest ?

Clearly she doesn’t understand what “a call to arms” means. Also, resign. You’re the worst.

TFW you don’t know what a “call to arms” means, don’t care when told, and know that anyone stupid enough to vote for you doesn’t either.

I see you're trying to change the definition of words again. I don't think you're talking about giving out free hugs

We’re old enough to remember when Lightfoot refused to let President Donald Trump’s “troops” terrify the residents of her city when he threatened to send in the National Guard to take care of the gang violence problem.
And speaking of the Supreme Court, we’re also old enough to remember when Lightfoot banned protesters on her block, saying she had the right to keep her home secure. So we’ll assume she’s disgusted by the protests in front of the justices’ homes, then.
Citing threats, Mayor Lori Lightfoot defends ban on protesters on her block: ‘I have a right to make sure that my home is secure' https://t.co/oFptVrakKA

What a hypocrite.
What exactly IS your thing? Acting like a mayor certainly isn’t it.

Pro tip: try being an actual mayor to help solve Chicago issues instead of being a crazy liberal activist.
