A rather paltry number; Chicongo can do better than that.

Well, I’ll be a Prixster in an Uncle Sam hat. The Chicongoans were really hootin’ it up! I guess the Handmaiden Tails Parades didn’t interest them.

How is Cabrini-Green still a thing? I thought they bulldozded it and started putting up expensive highrises.

*sigh*

There is no such thing as "gun violence."

Guns don't do anything without a person holding it and shooting. That's called "people violence."

I know yesterday, lots of cars were speeding on the streets of Chicago! I heard that today will be more street racing in Chicago. CPD needs to arrest those people going 100+ MPH on the streets, it’s for the children!! 😀

Yes, the notorious CHA development has been completely razed except for a handful of duplexes. The neighborhood is still known as Cabrini-Green. It has since been rebuilt with mixed-income condos and apartment buildings. CHA owns a few of the properties, but it’s nothing like it once was. It’s a popular location, close to downtown.
