I’m fortunately mostly out of the Chicago city, but keep close contact with political, criminal events, statistics in my former very influential city neighborhood. Barack Obama was my neighbor and Illinois State Representative. Now the Obama Foundation is stealing my former open, free Lakefront public Jackson Park to build some abomination/Obamination including a 27 story high rise, above ground parking garages build at tax payer expense in (Andrew) Jackson Park. This Obamination will be called; The Obama Presidential Center. Local liberal White park lovers are furious.
Chicago is a one party, Black AA/ homosexual LGBT and Jewish dominated one party state – under the misrule of the Demorat party. There are currently no Giuliani style tough law and order pols, crusaders or even just honest law and order writers in the local mainstream media or on local TV. On the plus side the City is stunningly beautiful, especially this time of year Indian Summer.
Chicago does have a few excellent crime reporting blogs. I highly recommend these three:
This blog reports Chicago City weekly, monthly, annual shootings and murders and breaks these stats down by neighborhoods, racial stats of perps and victims.
This blog is written by tough, street smart retired Chicago cops. It is crime and political commentary about what’s going down now in Chicago and the writers and commenters are honest about racial realities.
This blog focuses on street crime in Chicago North Side neighborhoods – offers honest NY Post type crime reporting and features excellent photos of the perps doing the knock out game, wilding attacks etc.
This week’s Chicago murder and mayhem totals: Shot and wounded 57, shot and killed 15, other homicides 2, total homicides 17.
Mr. Ryan,
The murder rate in Chicago is twice that of Durango, Mexico in 2017, the last year I have information on. I read that for Chicago it was 23.8 per 100,000 inhabitants while Durango was 12.2 murders per 100,000 people.
I mention Durango since that is where most of my relatives live. Shocking that a major USA city is worse when Mexico has the drug wars. Is Chicago always a city at war with itself?
Naturally, I am aware of the overall higher murder rate in Mexico compared to the US.
