47 shootings but only 2 deaths. People in Chicago can't shoot for sh!t. I guess that's the bright side.

Yep, it appears to be.Is it racist to live in a small town now?? Haha
Seems fairly obvious... The people of Chicago and other dangerous cities (Including Indianapolis) should just use some Common Sense and quit voting for Democrats...What would you recommend I do to decrease the murder rate in Chicago?
It’s as if you think regular people in the city just living their lives are somehow responsible for the crime problem.
Charlotte is cute. I know a lot of failures that moved there because they couldn’t hack it in a real city.
What do you recommend for the 27 cities (Including Indianapolis) who have a murder rate higher than Chicago?
Crime is surging everywhere. The numbers sound more shocking the bigger the city. Criminologists are opining that it is a product of financial/social pandemic consequences. It will be interesting to see if it's sustained or declines when pandemic numbers dropThat's because they have already fixed Birmingham, AL and Columbia, SC and have worked their way to Chicago. Chattanooga, TN and Augusta, GA are next.
The numbers sound more shocking the bigger the city.
i've been reading a lot about this, as crime here is off the charts, and there really isn't much explanation for it other than the pandemic. it's getting back to like early 90sThe aggregate numbers are what some folks quote when the rates should be at least as disturbing. But that would only matter if the people gleefully quoting the aggregate numbers were actually interested in addressing problems, policy, and issues. I don't see much evidence of that in the "Chicago is a shithole" crowd.

winter is coming and that always helps. cooling off period, literally. then hopefully by spring we have the pandemic under control and the numbers declineIt's an interesting topic, but from what I've seen the pandemic has exacerbated problems that have been simmering for a while. As such, I suspect it's a combination of issues where the pandemic is the spark that ignited the combustible material lying there.

I live in NC Indiana (Kosc Co to be exact). My better half and I took our daughter to CHI last weekend for some culture (we did the Van Gogh Immersion Experience at the Germania Center downtown and the Frida Kahlo exhibit at the College of DuPage in the afternoon). We hit downtown around 9:30 am and walked around for HOURS afterward, had lunch and then walked around again...no gangs of wild dogs taking over the city, no bullet proof vests, no bunkers, no menacing folks etc. just a lot of people walking their dogs, jogging, riding bikes and tourists enjoying all that is CHI in the summer. The most lawlessness we experienced was a young lady finishing her hand-rolled and tossing it to the ground like it was a cigarette butt. That made me chuckle!!!Only 4 killed and 28 injured yesterday in mostly peaceful gunfire,
The old days of being a great place to live may be coming back one day.
Just wait until the GOP succeeds in getting abortion banned. Violent crime will SKYROCKET.Crime is surging everywhere. The numbers sound more shocking the bigger the city.

You think? In regards to your above Chicago post and crime what you write is true. The same holds for most cities, but it misses the point. The point is that we are seeing an enormous amount of violent crime all over the country. Kids, little kids, being shot. That's a problem we should all care about - not well it's confined to shitty neighborhoods - my hood is great!Just wait until the GOP succeeds in getting abortion banned. Violent crime will SKYROCKET.

Upon my return to Mayberry, a number of folks questioned our judgement, wondering why we would subject our 10 year old daughter to a war zone...the questions they asked were astounding (e.g. were you able to find a place to eat given that everything is in shambles, boarded up etc.?). DAFUK planet are you from?
Y'all have been scared out of minds, played...you've allowed your minds to be controlled. Get bloody help!! Go see for yourself...might do you some good.

Hmmmn, must be a couple of right wing rags... Those stories Can't be true.. 🙄🙄🙄
NBC tv Chicago had a piece on shootings having doubled on the Expessway ( probably just more right wing propaganda [DWS]... ) 🙄That poster was up in Old Town, which is still safe during the day (for the most part). Then he was out in Dupage lol, which is night/day vs. Chicago.
Most of the shootings and issues are confined to specific areas, though Streeterville and other Near North areas are looking less safe than they used to be.

It's my common sense "opinion" that it's the Democratic administrations policies that create the circumstances for increased violence...76-1, is it the policies of the Dem mayors which cause violence or the fact voters who live in urban cities vote for Dems?
You should have taken your daughter where the poor folks live and crime rages. It sounds like she got the white privilege tour.Just wait until the GOP succeeds in getting abortion banned. Violent crime will SKYROCKET.

yes it's snipe on your part, again. you aren't posting content. post content or if you're more interested in the posters than posting content just be a mod. you would be a good mod.It's just good that there's a thoughtful discussion happening about urban policy and no one offered shallow drivebys that thoughtlessly brought race into it...oh, wait.
@mcmurtry66 , is this what you mean by sniping? Or is it just when someone notes that stoll really seems eaten up by anger? Asking for a friend.
yes it's snipe on your part, again. you aren't posting content. post content or if you're more interested in the posters than posting content just be a mod. you would be a good mod.
as for stoll you know nothing about him. he could hate the current state of politics and be drinking on the beach happy as a clam. your posting that he seems eaten up by anger is frankly idiotic. you'd have said the same about watching half the people watching iu playing iowa. dumb
All this anger stuff. I had a great day and ribeyes on the grill.I agree that stoll's post was dumb, but I still confused. Both things I said are sniping or just the one?
76-1, could you tell us just what are the Dem mayor's policies which encourage violent crimes?It's my common sense "opinion" that it's the Democratic administrations policies that create the circumstances for increased violence...
This touches on it. Some real. Some perceived. Dem prosecutors play a role with bond, charging, Recs, sentencing recs, parole, which isn't touched upon in article76-1, could you tell us just what are the Dem mayor's policies which encourage violent crimes?
MM66, so according to your link Dem mayors blame the availability of guns and want to defund the police.This touches on it. Some real. Some perceived. Dem prosecutors play a role with bond, charging, Recs, sentencing recs, parole, which isn't touched upon in article
Next victims of rising crime? Democrats in 2022 midterms
It apparently is a lot easier for liberal Democrats to blame crime on guns than on the people using them.www.google.com
And I believe the lion's share of it stems from a lack of money and opportunity and guidance. Guns and cops and prosecutors are the consequenceMM66, so according to your link Dem mayors blame the availability of guns and want to defund the police.
Meanwhile Dem prosecutors are focusing on major crimes instead of minor crimes when everyone knows minor crimes which go unprocecuted eventually leads to a wave of
major crimes ( Broken Windows theory).
Very interesting.

The amount of repeat offenders in urban America is not just discouraging, it's downright maddening.
The reasons behind recidivism and the challenges in how to address them would be an interesting topic.
Just stay away from the south side and you won't even know Chicago's a shitholeYou really are a sad clown.

Does anyone else see a pattern here?More relaxed prosecution and sentencing may work or be beneficial for drug charges, but it doesn't seem like a good idea related to other offenses:
