How Chicago pats itself on the back

Running out of people to kill?
I lived in Des Plains, Il. 1968 i think, when I was already halfway thru 11th grade, one of the 6 High Schools I went to (real fun). Used to go downtown Chicago. It was safe then, I think.

pellmell It's not worth having this discussion. Carry on Chicago.

Just like college football it just takes the right hire.

azgreg So Chicago is like...The Cleveland Browns?

I'm sure the killers are just passing their guns back and forth amongst themselves, to avoid background checks, ya know. Shithole.

It's all fixable, but I really think many don't want it fixed.

Anybody who wants a gun can get one.

sdandrea1 Yes. No need to cross a state line, which also breaks the law if it's a handgun. Stolen ones are sold on street same as drugs and flesh.

johnnydoom Understand, same with drugs, it is the people. One thing about these discussions, never gray area.

If they are not going to clean it up build a fence around it. Send in IDF.

jsippy73 back in 1973 and 74, drove a yellow cab in Chgo (mainly in the summer). The bulletproof glass between me and the passenger will attest to how safe it was.
As a sidenote to gun laws, fireworks were and still are illegal in Chicago. As an 11yr old, had no problem buying them.

Just throwing this out there for consumption.
