Rioters in Chicago vandalized a Ronald McDonald House with sick children and their families inside. (Washington Times)
The Ronald McDonald House in the Streeterville neighborhood of the city’s Near North Side provides support for sick children and their families while the child receives medical treatment at nearby Lurie Children’s Hospital.
“[We were] very concerned there was a lot of activity right in front of the house, people making choices that could put them at risk and put our families at risk, so the staff was frightened,” Lisa Mitchell, of Ronald McDonald House Charities, told ABC 7 Chicago.
“They are already in a really, really difficult spot,” she said of the families. “Having this kind of additional stress and worry about getting to and from the hospital even though we are five blocks away because of safety concerns is just doubling the strain.”
Though the outside of the building sustained damage, no one inside was hurt.
The charity said it will remain open despite the potential dangers.

IMHO, there is NO excuse for THIS!
Another reason for civil Americans to hate Antifa and BLM!
