A brave Black business owner in Chicago just said what most people are too scared to admit. Jackie Jackson owns a Fatburger restaurant that was attacked twice by violent teenagers. She finally spoke out after nine long months of suffering in silence.
Back in December, a group of teens stormed into her restaurant and beat up her employee. The workers ran for their lives while criminals destroyed everything Jackson worked decades to build. A month later, different teens jumped over the counter to attack another worker.
Here’s the part that will make liberals lose their minds. A customer with a concealed carry permit pulled out his gun and told the thugs to leave. That armed citizen saved Jackson’s business and possibly her employees’ lives. Yet the mainstream media barely wants to talk about this hero.
Jackson installed panic buttons, eight-inch iron fences, and high-tech security systems just to keep her doors open. This is what happens when soft-on-crime politicians let criminals run wild in our cities. Hardworking Americans shouldn’t need to turn their businesses into fortresses.
The most disgusting part is that nine months later, nobody has been arrested. Chicago police are still “investigating” while the criminals walk free. This is exactly why Democrat-run cities are falling apart and why businesses are fleeing.
Community activists finally held a support event for Jackson’s restaurant. They admitted that back in the day, communities used to protect their own businesses from this kind of violence. Now they’re begging people to come buy burgers just to keep one honest business alive.
Jackson represents everything great about America. She’s a Black entrepreneur who built something from nothing and serves her community every day. But Chicago’s failed leadership has abandoned people like her to the mercy of teenage criminals who face zero consequences.
This story proves why the Second Amendment matters and why law-abiding citizens need to be armed. When the police won’t protect you and the courts won’t punish criminals, sometimes a good guy with a gun is all that stands between order and chaos.
