I’m not sure there are words to describe how angry this makes me. This is my home town, and it was once such a glorious place. Horseback riding in Lincoln Park, shopping downtown, especially at Christmas, the beach in my backyard, the museums, the Art Institute, Shedd Acquarium, and the magnificent downtown main library, just for starters.
I would love to go back and visit, but I’m afraid I’d be broken hearted (or shot in a drive by).
Richard J Daly was mayor when I was growing up. Corrupt as the day is long, of course, but he understood when an iron fist was necessary.
Surprised Chicago STILL has a Police force thanks to all the support they DON’T get.
