Visits are down 93% year-to-year from the Pier’s 8 key “feeder states” of Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Minnesota, Michigan, Missouri, Ohio and Wisconsin, said Gardner. The visits from Illinois are down 79%, while the proportion of in-state visitors is up by 66%. Those who are coming, in other words, are primarily locals.

So it's all the fault of out of state visitors, who object to not only, being separated from their wallets in the traditional method of the Chicago visitors tax, but to being mugged and assaulted - with no help from the local woke DA.

It sounds as if people are afraid to go to Chicago.

The recent rioting on the upscale Magnificent Mile is certainly not going to help. I think that shakes people to the core, to think that upscale areas are targeted by criminals.

Yep, it’s all the fault of those out-of-state visitors — you know, the ones who bring in all those guns and then leave them behind for the local denizens to use to shoot toddlers in their strollers and the elderly out watering their lawn in the evening.
