Places very familiar to me.
It seems the thugs are getting an early start to the weekend.
It’s tragic.
I think yesterday I saw an article that said something about homicide rate in LA will become top of nation.

The weather was nice yesterday.
I agree. Which is why I can’t go to places I used to go.
Can’t they get anything straight in Chicago .... shoot them in the head and call the Chicago Body Parts Recovery EMS Teams immediately.
The ferals are unchecked in Chicago. Mayor Daley is rolling over in his grave, But Black Lives Matter! Black on black crime doesn’t count.
