I'm in southwest Chicago, and about 7pm, like 90 min before sunset. Decided to buy a few things to watch the game.

I arrived at the store lot. And, all stores are closed, Police have barricades up. No entry. This is for ALL the stores within blocks.

Probably will be the norm through Thanksgiving.

Southeast Side just as bad - the Pete’s Market at 118th and Ave O is a fortress - barricade blocking the parking lot - boarded up doors and windows - customers let in one at a time.

Iraq was never this bad.

Sounds like you’ll need to make a beer and popcorn run to Milwaukee or Springfield if you want your munchies and a beverage to wash it down.
