We probably shouldn’t “demonize” toddlers who shoot up their schools either, right Mr. Mayor?

Most Chicagoians voted for it. The problem is that the sane Chicagoians will continue to flee, increasingly leaving the inmates to run the asylum.

The trillions of $$ invested in these cities over decades will be lost as they increasingly come to resemble Detroit.

Some cultures are successful.
Some cultures are failures.
Some cultures are savage violent feral animals unable to live in civilized society.

We don’t have to demonize them, because the demons inside them are doing all the work.

"Does anyone know what the effect all this is having on the price of real estate in Chicago? IOWs, are up scale condos selling at a premium still or are people selling and leaving?"

Got cash? You can find a deal inside the Loop. And never leave your condo building.

The only problem is that these voters will move somewhere else when it gets bad enough and turn their new homes into a Chicago-style Hellhole.

So tell them that rampaging is not constructive. Get up there with your bull-horn, and tell them your truth, your honor. They’ll shamefacedly go home with their heads down in contrition, if you’ll only tell them your truth./s

“It is not constructive to demonize youth ...”

Can you demonize a group (mob) without demonizing each individual within the group? A person’s behavior in a mob unlikely to be an example of his best behavior.

What’s my point? Not sure.
