No mention of crime in the article. Wonder why.

No mention of crime? Why would they?
9 dead and 46 wounded this past weekend!

A major omission in my opinion.

No mention of crime in the article.

"Since 1970, 340 officials in Chicago and Cook County have been convicted of corruption. So have three governors."

"31 aldermen have been convicted of corruption since 1970."

Well, there is mention of crime, but I don't think it is the kind you were thinking.

“No mention of crime in the article.”

It is a shame that our leaders and the press fail to address “the problem that won't be spoken of.”

Here are some stats for Chicago:

Roughly 80% of murder victims in Chicago are black.
Roughly 80% of people committing murder in Chicago are black.
Blacks make up roughly 36% percent of the population of Chicago.

Despite this, the author of the article fails to give even the slightest hint that black on black crime might be a problem in Chicago.

I guess blacks don't count in the author's eyes.
