A Chicago man is furious after a local Dunkin’ Donuts installed bulletproof glass to protect workers. He compared the setup to feeding animals in a zoo, saying it made him feel “untrusted.” But the business is just trying to survive in a city where crime forces shops to take extreme steps.
Chicago’s crime problem is no secret. Dunkin’ locations there have been robbed multiple times. Store owners didn’t put up bulletproof glass for fun—they did it to stop thieves and keep employees safe. When businesses can’t rely on police or politicians, they have to protect themselves.
The man’s anger misses the point. Instead of blaming Dunkin’, he should ask why crime is so bad in his neighborhood. Cities like Chicago have ignored lawlessness for years. Now honest businesses are stuck dealing with the mess. Dunkin’ is doing what any responsible company would do.
Some say bulletproof glass “hurts mental health” or “shows distrust.” But what really hurts communities is pretending crime isn’t a problem. If locals want businesses to treat them differently, they need to make their streets safe first. Dunkin’ didn’t create this crisis—it’s just trying to survive it.
Liberal policies have let crime spiral out of control. Soft-on-crime leaders and woke excuses protect criminals instead of victims. Stores end up looking like fortresses because the system fails them. Dunkin’ isn’t the villain here. The real issue is a culture that refuses to hold criminals accountable.
Dunkin’ has every right to protect its workers. No one should risk their life just to serve coffee. If customers don’t like the bulletproof glass, they should blame the thieves and politicians who made it necessary. Freedom to run a business includes the freedom to avoid getting robbed.
This situation shows what happens when leaders care more about feelings than safety. Chicago’s crime stats don’t lie, but some would rather attack Dunkin’ than fix the streets. Conservatives know that real change starts with honesty—and admitting crime is a problem that needs tough solutions.
In the end, safety matters more than hurt feelings. Dunkin’ is keeping their employees alive in a city where crime keeps rising. Until Chicago cleans up its act, businesses will keep putting up barriers. That’s not racism or distrust—it’s common sense in a broken city.
