Chicago is a corruption filled cesspool. Why does anybody choose to live there?

Its a shame that Fox is on-board with this “gun violence” nonsense. Gun violence is bad, but why stop there. There were a lot of people raped, mugged, robbed and killed last weekend without a gun being involved. Lee Zeldin said it best in the debate with Kathy Hochul when she started pattering on about “gun violence.” He said the woman who got pushed in front of a subway car by a deranged thug didn’t involve a gun. The woman who got raped in Central Park by a group of “youths” didn’t involve a gun. Its crime, not “gun violence”, that is the problem.

Mrs. O’Leary’s cow might have had the right idea.

It may not be progress but it’s certainly progressive.

I’d almost think Chicago could use a Al Capone type to run things.

No excusing Al for being the criminal he was.

It’s been an exceedingly warm Fall here in the Midwest. I expect shootings will slow down once the snow flies. ;)

“gun violence”

Chicago must be filled with those Alec Baldwin type guns that fire themselves...

Those guys were evil, and they exploited people’s weaknesses. But I’ll say one thing for them. They were usually careful not to kill innocents during their many gangland wars.

None of this spray and pray stuff, like we see with today’s thugs.

It plays out that way on a small scale, all over the country.
I had a friend in Arizona whose neighborhood was kept safe by tbe cartel drug-house up the street. They didn’t want tor any increased police presence in the area, and there were real consequences if you crossed them.

Indeed. According to https://heyjackass.com/ 622 total homicides in Chicago so far this year.

We hope…

If we really DO have a Republican blowout tomorrow, we just may see all hell break loose. Hopefully not.

Good post.

I believe this is an original idea (maybe good for a laugh).

I think places like Chicago are like an individual serial killer. A large monstrous group mind entity, Chicago now craves attention. The more the “people” of Chicago kill, the more attention they get.
