Rutles said: Not excusing what happened here, but this kind of thing happens in pretty much every major city these days, but you’re only seeing it on Drudge because of the Olympic backdrop."

Exactly. I've lived in Chicago for about 15 years, in several neighborhoods, and never seen anything even remotely resembling this ghastly mob scene. Such stuff is largely confined to a few mostly-black neighborhoods that outsiders know to avoid. Although the "hispanics" are now giving the blacks a run for the money when it comes to wanton crime....

Enjoyed my visit to Chicago. They keep the tourist areas clean, and man, best pizza. Ever. Sorry to see this happen anywhere to anyone. Sad, but really points out what the Olympic competitors n teams would be subject to. I think it’s appropriate to warn visitors and Olympic teams. Guess we need to make sure it hits the international news.
