People who think that they are safe because they do not live in "those" neighborhoods or "bad areas" are naive. This is the false thinking that you get with the Regressive political approach.
I wonder how many of these Chicagoians are in Miami this weekend?
Any city totally run by democrats is probably unsafe.

You can always get the Chicago cop’s point of view here: http://truenewsusa.blogspot.com/ - it’s the old Detective Shaved.
I thought there have been some black flash mob lootings and fights on the Near North Side in the past year or so. They are coming up out of the south side and west side to invade other areas.
In a politically correct world, I don’t know what the answer to black flash mob crime and knockout games and such is. We can’t say that they are uncivilized barbarians in our PC culture. We normally don’t see the MSM identify the criminals. They say they are teenagers but don’t mention other characteristics of these people.
A gun obviously didn’t save ths guy. (I assume that off-duty officers are required to carry a firearm in Chicago.)
A couple of years and Chi-Congo will look like Detroit - only worse.
Somewhat true. You can still take a vacation to Chicago so long as you stick to the touristy areas - Navy Pier, the museums, Wrigley Field, the downtown area (during daytime). After dark, make sure you are in a hotel out in the suburbs. Naperville, which is about 30 miles south of the city, is an excellent place to stay. It has a done of great restaurants and shops which gives you plenty to do after coming back from a day in the city.
How can something that been the status quo for at least 15 years be Breaking News?
Visiting Chicago is like going on safari with a fresh meat necklace .....the jackals will find you.
Wish the field museum would move to a city that’s not following Detroit down the drain.
Which is why I left 15 years ago. You could see what was coming even back then.
If Chicago woke up tomorrow and 95% of “Holders’ People” simply vanished, how safe would Chicago then be??
We all know the answer and we all know who is committing the crimes.

You’re not very safe in any big city in America anymore for obvious reasons.
Chicago is just the prime example.
These thugs in Chicago are all paid and protected with your tax dollars. They all get taxpayers handouts for themselves, their baby mommas and their children. Chicago is a one party Democrat city. The thugs and the politicians work together.

I am fairly safe as long as I carry enough ammo.

That is true of a lot of cities. The mobs have started invading downtown areas formerly safe. Best to boycott cities.
Of course I am in Mississippi and not Chicago.

Or maybe not.
An old movie has a good line about the underclass: “You think the future can’t cross a bridge?”
To which I would add, go drive through any slum and notice how many cars are parked, many of them nice cars. They WILL be able to reach the suburbs.
