The minute long video features “walking tour” organizer Kevin Fergus who is addressing “Whitey’s” or in other words, fans of the couple.
The tour takes you to the Granville red line platform “complete with a sketchy guy” and shows you the popular spots Brianna and Jaelin visited including Subway and the CVS parking lot!
Facebook originally removed Kevin’s event page after it was reported, probably by Brianna and Jaelin, but has since restored it.
...
The meetup will be at Berger Park and so far, 2.9K are going with 5.3K interested.
...
The Whites also told DNAInfo that they hope their story makes a “positive difference.”
“We just hope that people would use this opportunity to make a positive difference in their community,”...
And for once, THEY are right.
Kevin partnered with Care for Real to raise money for Edgewater’s homeless community.
His event page asks that even if you don’t make the event that you take some time to donate.

Thanks, tough guy.
Now I'll let you get back to watching Death Wish II.
The couple look like a butch and femme. Are we sure the husband isn’t trans?
No!
He reminds me of Donny Osmond.
Oh, brother.
That's how I feel. It's not normal to have to worry about being mugged/punched/shot for no reason. I guess it 's like the frog in the boiling pot of water. "Getting punched in the face isn't so bad". "Getting mugged isn't so bad". "Getting shot at isn't so bad". "Getting shot in the arm isn't so bad".
At that time of day, it would have been pretty busy.
These kids also talked about Loyola, which is East Rogers Park - the next area immediately north of Edgewater.
That also used to be lily white and still is for the most part around the University.
At one time, areas a tad north of Loyola University(North Shore up through Evanston) turned Jamaican and was a dicey area.
I don't know what either area is like today.
Heck, even in the 70s there were bums wandering around downtown Cleveland. Looks like Chicago was a nicer place then. (Not surprisingly, I guess)
this area is not downtown. about 10 miles north
So the 2100 shot in Chicago this year deserve to be mocked too? Obviously, they didn’t handle the big city environment well either.
We need those on our team, not yours.
They were walking the mean streets...

Someone married at 19.
You are making less and less sense with each post.
The must be some FReepers in Chicago. Perhaps they will be able to shed light on the details of this notorious couple’s trauma.**
At your service...
I think couple over-reacted to move out in ONE DAY...Millennials from the collar counties are flocking to the City for the nightlife and easy commutes as Chicago is where many of them work at hospitals, law firms, financial institutions such as CBOT and trading firms, etc. or go to school at institutions like CHicago, Loyola (a good school btw), UIC, John Marshall or even Northwestern—tho that is farther north. Some are taking cullinary programs at the Art Institute and Kellog as Chicago has world class restaurants—look up Oriole...one of best in world. I know these kids and their parents.
These 2 from Arizona are very young and seems they did much of their relocation research over the internet...not how to play the game in third largest city in US...
I suspect they oozed of newbie and some creep was capitalizing on that. Have to be careful anywhere in the City—some areas more than others...there are assaults, and thefts (probably related), but it is not notorious area to my knowledge.
As they stated there were lots of people around~they likely were perceived as easy mark by homeless or crazy person...Gang members by definition run in groups...if even 2...this guy was alone.
Interesting that they were very deliberate in not giving any details—age, race, etc.
Millennial radio station, B96 is going nuts with this—but they are known for being irreverent.
**REAL TRAUMA IS HAVING YOUR CAR SURROUNDED BY DOZENS AND DOZENS OF THUGISH BLACK LIVES MATTERS PROTESTERS BANGING ON CAR WHEN TRYING TO LEAVE A TRUMP RALLY down at University of Illinois Chicago campus.

Should add that the young couple made a lot of mistakes—if you are going to live in big city, certain things you just don’t do...like engaging crazies—don’t make eye contact, don’t talk to them or argue with them or question them, like not having pepper spray, like not having decent charge on cell phone, like immediately returning to your apartment so crazies know your car and address, etc...
Sorry he got clocked, although he really was lucky that is all that happened all things considered...
You don’t engage those folks...move away and move towards group of other people...all kinds of people around, yet the crazy chose them...
Laws of the jungle in force—they go for the young, weak :(
