Hockey crowds are good crowds. Nfl has turned to shit it seems
Connor Bedard should probably have his own thread, but let's keep him here:
My son has been practicing bucket drumming and wants to go sit in front of the stadium for home games and drum and try to make his first million. Opinions on the advisability of that?
Do any other cities have bucket drummers like Chicago? I've never seen it anywhere else.
New Orleans is the mecca....
For sure. Even the homeless have an angle. A dog that pretends to be drunk. Etc. I love it. Always give them money.
Need to get those government run stores the mayor wants up and running asap. Will solve everything.
This plan sounds decent on its face. Will it drive out businesses?

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson tax hike for homeless services heads to voters
The success of the referendum ordinance is now expected to open the doors to dueling high-stakes campaigns before the March primary election between the Bring Chicago Home coalition and opponents in the real estate industry.
Brandon Johnson when asked why CTU supports a hybrid school board structure where half the board seats are unelected.
Can't make this up. The Mayor of Chicago defending the Teacher's Union selecting their own board members, by saying "You have to be and educator to weigh in"
Chicago is everything wrong with our education system rolled into one city. Teachers Unions are evil.

Migrant family journeys back to Venezuela, more leaving Chicago as winter looms: ‘The American Dream doesn’t exist anymore’

I don't think poverty counts on an asylum application, and that appears to be what all those interviewed here are saying their reason is for being here.
Also, this is so stupid:
"But while some migrants are choosing to leave, many more still arrive every week. In what could be considered a revolving door for taxpayers, for example, Catholic Charities of Chicago is using Illinois taxpayer money to transport the migrants who want to return to Texas or to other states while simultaneously the Catholic Charities of San Antonio and the city of Denver are using federal taxpayer money to send new migrants to Chicago."

Chicagoans are so f*cking stupid. Johnson being a disaster was the most predictable thing in the world. I still find it hard to believe that he won. CTU ****ery perhaps.
Only 28% of Chicago voters approve of Mayor Brandon Johnson
New polling shows Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has a 28% approval rating – as low as one mayor after a national scandal and another who was about to get booted by voters.

As far as this guy goes, we’re way to stingy with the death penalty…
There's a 99% chance the guy is mentally ill. But no one can do anything about it, his family and community either can't or won't take care of him, and so he's shuffled around from place to place.
It's a huge problem, but in a nation that values freedom as much as we do, we put up with it. I don't know how to solve the issue without re-instituting forced institutionalization, which had its own evils and horror stories.
Maybe, but I believe that bad people exist & realize they’re doing bad things to other people. Is that mental illness, possibly, but almost certainly the world is a better place without him.
At the risk of sounding insensitive. Let them enjoy a Chicago winter on the street? I don't know why they came here with the expectation they'd be afforded free shelter.

Mayor Johnson also blamed the 'far right' for Chicago's ills during Tuesday's press conference.
'What we've seen is a very raggedy form of right-wing extremism,' the woke Mayor said. 'Everyone knows that the right-wing extremism in this country has targeted democratically run cities and quite frankly and they have been quite intentional about going after democratically ran cities that are led by people of color.'
'There intention is to create division and chaos because that is what that particular political party has been about.
'It is the same party that wouldn't accept that President Obama was actually an American. It's the same Republican right-wing extremism that stormed the capital, its the same right wing extremism that refuses to accept the results of the civil war. Its raggedy its disrespectful, its mean spirited.'
'It is abysmal and it is an affront for everything that is good about this country for the extremism in this country to use people as political tools to settle political scores for something that happened over 400 years ago. They're still mad that a black man is free in this country.

I don't get how anyone can live there with kids.
You make 1 million dollars a year, live in a Lincoln Park brownstone and send your kids to St. Ignatius or Latin. Or they commute to Loyola Academy.
