When libs control EVERYTHING!-----The road to the Chicago train fire attack - Washington Examiner

On April 23, 2020, a man poured gasoline around the Illinois state government building in Chicago and set it on fire. - Byron York
The man, identified as Lawrence Reed, 44, was said to be angry because he had not received his monthly government Supplemental Security Income check...
Even then, police and the larger justice system in Chicago were very familiar with Reed. 
  • CWB Chicago reported that he was “on probation for two criminal damage to property convictions” and had “seven felony and 11 misdemeanor convictions as well as two pending misdemeanor cases.” 
  • He was also “awaiting trial for allegedly punching two women in the face at random in the Loop on February 28, 2020.”
Even with that record, Reed did not receive any time behind bars for setting the fire at the Thompson Center. 
Instead, he was sentenced to mental health probation...
