Chicago is going to hell in a hand basket. I worked there for 30 years, now I won’t go into the city. Beware the tourist areas and of course the west and south side. And the loop at night.

Gee, I wonder what else is causing people of means to continue to flee Chicago and move out of state? One party tyranny for 90 years, ever rising taxes and diminishing services, perverts running the public school system, etc. Oh, and did I mention crime levels across the board going through the roof with little or no effective prosecution? Well? Did I miss anything?

I thought the mayor said something to the effect these thugs were not loved enough. I can see that. Send in the social workers to help them realize how special they are.

I recommend two solutions for Mayor Liteloafers: 1) pass a law making car jacking a crime; 2) give cars to all teen agers so they won’t have to high jack others cars.

One of the legislative failures contributing to the jump in Chicago carjackings came when lawmakers in 2015 rescinded the right of county prosecutors to charge juvenile carjackers as adults. Juveniles have recently been responsible for nearly half or more of carjackings or carjacking arrests in Chicago.

All crime (except maybe crimes of passion) is a cost-benefit analysis.

If you lower the cost of performing the crime, you are more likely to commit the crime.

3) expand anti-hijacking educational programs in the Chicago school system, hire 1800 new teachers at $175K/year each to teach anti-hijacking lifestyles to disadvantaged youth.

All the thugs are back out on the streets helped by the pancake ladies who were made prosecutors and DAs with the little Nazi, Georgie Soros’ big bucks.

Chicago Police Superintendent David Brown has said most carjackings in the city are perpetrated by 15- to 20-year-olds.

Sure, their school's gender-studies classes are interesting, but they are looking for something more career-focused.

Chicago is circling the drain. Look at the decline in mayors. Daley was a corrupt POS but he was the last mayor who had any claim to being a semi- serious leader. Then came Rahm Emanuel who was a total disaster for the city. About the only good thing you can say about Rahm is that he was marginally better than Lori Lightfoot who is a dumpster fire on napalm filled dumpster riding on a rail car on a train in the process of a train wreck. It's like a theatric production of Heart of Darkness meets Idiocracy.

I’m guessing that you are referring to “Little Richie” rather than his father THE Mayor Richard J. Daley.
