Chicago’s police superintendent has said that progressive policies are the cause for the city’s recent spike in crime.

“We are arresting violent offenders, the courts are releasing these people back into the community,” Chicago Police Superintendent David Brown said Monday…

Electronic monitoring…has been frequently cited by law enforcement authorities as a “dangerous initiative that puts too many criminals back on the streets and endangers the public,” according to the Examiner…

In Chicago alone, more than 100 murder suspects have been out with ankle monitor bracelets.

Do you think electronic monitoring is preferable to the bail system? Share your thoughts, and prayers for peace in Chicago below.

It is written in 2 Chronicles 19:6-10
verse 6— He (King Jehoshaphat)said to the judges, “Consider what you are doing, for you do not judge for man but for the Lord who is with you when you render judgment.
verse 7— Now then let the fear of the Lord be upon you; be very careful what you do, for the Lord our God will have no part in unrighteousness or partiality or the taking of a bribe.”
verse 9— Then he charged them saying, “Thus you shall do in the fear of the Lord, faithfully and wholeheartedly.
verse 10— Whenever any dispute comes to you from your brethren who live in their cities, between blood and blood, between law and commandment, statutes and ordinances, you shall warn them so that they may not be guilty before the Lord, and wrath may not come on you and your brethren. Thus you shall not do and you will not be guilty.
When someone has committed a crime and they are apprehended, they need to be kept locked up and justice needs to be administered quickly, not drug out for weeks, months, or years.
That’s a crime against the victim!!
Enough!!!

Lord, I pray for protection for the innocent people in Chicago, especially the elderly.
I pray for a great revival to take place in Chicago that will include many progressive politicians and criminals. Turn Chicago around for your glory. In Jesus name.
