Four community volunteers stringing up Christmas lights in the heart of Chicago's South Side were all robbed at a festive event meant to spread holiday cheer.

According to local authorities, at around 4 pm on Saturday, a white SUV pulled up on the women, and multiple suspects jumped out demanding the volunteer group hand over a wallet, a purse, and a fanny pack before running off again. Aside from the material losses, nobody was harmed in the incident, KABC-TV reported.

The women were part of a community action group called "My Block, My Hood, My City" and were participating in an event titled "Be Part of the Light." The organization was finishing the hours-long effort on 48th Street and King Drive.

At the end of the night, the women went to nearby Washington Park as planned to help light up a Christmas tree that had been installed there.

"We're trying to inspire hope," said Jahmal Cole, founder of My Block, My Hood, My City. "We're not the enemy!" He added that they'll have more security next weekend. "It's just tragic, man. It's just tragic that it happened in this city."

Cole did have a message for the thieves: "That's not the way! You're risking your whole freedom for $100!" With more decorations left to put up ahead of the holidays, organizers said the group's efforts will not be deterred

Crime in Chicago continues to spiral out of control throughout 2021.

Risking freedom? Ha. Even if they DO get arrested, they'll be back on the streets doing the same shit.
 
:story: Imagine being surprised at nigger on nigger crime.
They don't care if you're black jesus, pavement apes would and no doubt do, rob their own mothers.
 
Chicago is too far gone. Only purge by hellfire can save it now. Come on, sleepy Joe - turn that launch key.

Mobsters, while ruthless, would have standards with their crime activities. You can't even blame this surge of crimes on gangs, it's the whole environment.
 
We're not the enemy!

Lol. These niggers don't share your lofty political ideals. They are animals, driven only by greed and lust for power (over you). They aren't like you, they don't see in terms of "allies" or "enemies," only weak and strong, and you have made yourselves weak.

"Community Volunteer" is a dog whistle for white.

I'm not so sure this time. I know that there's only one name there mentioned which is obviously black, but some of the older blacks once they get enough jesus in them can live upright lives.

Either way, whether it's one or the other, this example of crab bucketing is just sad. I feel bad for the folks actually trying to make the place better. Often they are told their communities are shit because no one cares. When you see a few who do and have this happen...maybe I'm being soft but it really saddens me.

Missing the point there bud it's not about enemies it's about targets and victims there are no fucking teams those tards are in it for themselves and anyone else can get fucked.
 
The worst thing about Whites is their naive idealism. Blacks for all their savagery and stupidity see the world in far more realistic colors.

By "more security" they mean "paying off the local head thug who runs the block".

See above. These folks were interlopers on somebody's turf. That means they don't get their "protection" from the local hoods in his employ.

It is mob tactics just slightly different. Only just. Chicago is corrupt af and has been that way forever. Just instead of some fat Sicilian pulling the strings it's organized street gangs and their bosses.
 
You know, if these "My hood my city" types just fucking iced the robbers; I wouldn't hold it against them.
