Prayers up for the family. In any case, a "mere" stabbing in chitown? The only reason this is news is because a firearm WASN'T used.

I wonder if the CTA uses snort dogs and random checks of passengers to make sure the trains are gun free zones.

Just think, the watermelons want us all to use public transportation.

Well the Cubs are on the road so you don’t have to worry about not being able to use the Addison stop.

Chicago won’t change until they elect a Rudy Giuliani Look Alike for Mayor and run the Teachers Union leadership out of town.

That’s actually a rationale that I’ve heard used.

If I’m not mistaken, Illinois CPLs are not allowed on the trains.

If they took all the guns and made them into man hole covers, knives would be the weapon of choice. A victim can be dead before they can cry out for help. Just look happened to Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman.

You don’t really think that actual liberals should use the public transportation in one of their liberal hellholes, do you?

All the anti-Chicago postings just make New York and Los Angeles look good.

They do not. There are security dogs at some stations from time to time, but they aren’t “sniffers”, they are just there to scare people.
To: rktman
Isn’t Grand Blvd just north of the Loop rather than “south side?”
