Considering Chicago’s violence and none of their strict gun control measures working to stop it, Politicians are now telling the people of Chicago to protect themselves WITH WHISTLES.
Michele Smith (D-Ward 43) wants her constituents to wear whistles, which they can blow while running towards armed robbers, should they witness a crime taking place.
Michele Smith sent out an email about the new Whistle Stop program, saying, “The WhistleStop program follows these rules…If you find yourself in a suspicious situation or witness a crime, blow your whistle. If you hear a whistle, call the police, then move toward the source while blowing your own whistle.”
She claimed that blowing a whistle while running at the robber “forces the offender to flee, and helps the police pinpoint the location of the crime.”
That’s right, whistles.
She wants you to whistle your way to safety.
