Not a good look for blacks.
Downtown didn't used to be this way - it's just recently become a crap show.

Homicides were higher in the 70s-90s ... and yet, downtown was basically safe.

The cops should have all come down with the "Blue Flu" and called in that night. The city could have sent counselors in to defuse the mob.

Of course if the cops call in with the Blue Flu and the riot rages on the residents of that neighborhood are granted the Right to protect themselves and property by any means necessary with no repercussions. The cleanup crew will come in to clean up the bodies in the morning.
Do any decent people live in Chicago? I'd get the hell out and let em kill each other.

I know, it's not the gangbangers and their supportive family's fault.

Why doesn't Indiana have the same level of gun killing as Chicago?

Wait a minute. Didn't the Feds warn us to be concerned about white violence incidents over the Fourth?

What happened to that story?

In some parts of the country yes.

In other parts, not so much.

Jumping on cop cars and shooting cops is more the style.

To each their own.

If the Feds were constantly warning us about black violence it would be seen as exhibit A of racism.

Why do the feds constantly publicly warn over white violence when whites aren't the most violent race in the US per Fed stats and whites aren't number two either?

The self awareness is both sad and laughable. We’re having a national debate where one race of people, or at least the radicals in that race, is demeaning another race, no distinctions made, for all of the faults of human history and demanding they be given the keys to the kingdom and the minds of children. They’ve titled it a Racial Reckoning™. Authoritarian regimes based on racial reckonings have no historical context…

Meanwhile, in Chicago…

Welcome to the internet where your stupidity is put on blast for the world to see and watch over and over and over. YT’s algorithms even help to make sure others who might not have seen this tragedy unfolding be made sure to get a glimpse.

At the end of my day the only violence I'm exposed to is on Netflix or Amazon.

Or the rare bird mauling by one of our cats.

As an Indiana resident (and former Chicagoan) I can tell you that my guns have never committed any violence in Chicago.

Good to know. But you know what I am talking about, don't you.
