The next two “paragraphs”

So, what we’re witnessing in Chicago is not simply a return to some abstract high-crime statistic which could be debated ad nauseum by the sophists and excuse makers.

We’re seeing something else: the symptoms of death. And of civic anarchy, a breakdown and fragmentation, and literal chaos at the most fundamental levels of a once-great city, the most American of all American cities.

Look no farther than the housing developments as to where crime really metastasized. Sure Chicago had a long history of Italian and Irish gangs and I expect Black too. But if you cram too many people together, take the father’s out of families, this is what you’ll get. And as far as I can tell, democrats wanted the crises as a way to gain power.

This has happened to every Democrat city in the US. Democrats will redistrict to win elections and if that doesn’t work they will cheat. Gotham here we come. So your peaceful community will be at risk. Make sure your community stays safe.

Chiraq, Chicongo, or Chiberia are all accurate. Unless the crooked and evil Chicago politicians correct their course they are going to murder that city just like Detroit.

It’s surprising that the ruining of our cities hasn’t been an issue until now. It is a serious issue and a big deal. Our cities should be our crown jewels but instead the left has turned them into scary disasters. It is remarkable how the left is able to evade accountability.

Over the July 4 weekend, more than 100 people were shot, among them more than a dozen children, and 19 were killed.

To put a perspective on that, there were four KIA in Afghanistan during the entire calendar year of 2020. Four.

I wonder what the daily, weekly and weekend number of shootings and killings were during the Chicago gangster days of Prohibition?
