One wonders how the people of Chicago elected someone who is totally incompetent for the job of running that city.

It’s been a weird year. The left argues that the total violence in cities was much higher 20 years ago, and they are correct. And SOME violence is not going up, but the murders are, relative to the past few years.

And they seem to be arguing that the Trump administration did a great job of getting the nation to lower the crime rate, and now it is shooting up because leftists are mad about a dozen or so specific examples of what they call police brutality, and the default democrat reaction to something they don’t like is to go burn down black neighborhoods.

“Some people prefer to live a life filled with delusion.”

They are called liberals. They would rather be told an eloquent lie than the plain truth.

Every Chicago mayor since the Harrisons is turning over in his grave.

The City of Big Shoulders has become the Windy Freak Show.

As far as I know, the Second City Cop blogspot was first to use this moniker.

They’re great with descriptive nicknames for Chicago “leaders.”

We went to Chicago a few years ago to see the Hamilton play. Stayed downtown. Don’t roam around downtown (Loop area) after the sun goes down.

She really does look like a science experiment gone horribly wrong.
