Chicago lockdown rnd 2. Thanksgiving cancelled.

Please show me where I said anything about minorities? Are you really attempting to compare Mexico to Chicago? You’re right, it’s such a disgrace which explains why this city has the 3rd largest GDP in the US. Of course I don’t like some of the politics involved and we also have a not so proud history of corruption but for the most part this city gets shit on way too hard. I hate the unnecessary taxes, I hate the bullshit traffic, but most of you have no idea what you’re talking about.

Most complaints I hear about Chicago are about crime. Are you saying there's no real issue with crime in Chicago?
I wonder if the victims of all the crime take solace in their high GDP?

Except it doesn't have the 3rd best

Largest does not mean shit. As all large cities will have larger GDPs

So you hate the taxes, the traffic. You have a shit ton of crime in areas and increasing homelessness.

Just admit you are being emotional over a shitty city. Much like a raider fan would be emotional over their shit team.

Also, I'd guess most of Mexico is safer than Chicago. Maybe not in your bubble.....but you know, where all those undesirables live

If you had any idea what I do for a living you’d know what you just asked me was completely idiotic. Go read some of my other posts and educate yourself of how I feel about the crime here.

I don't memorize people's post history. I commented on that post which seemed to be minimizing the issues.

I’m curious, what city do you live in? I’ve lived in 5 different states. I was stationed at a few Army and Air Force bases years back. I’ve said on here before Chicago was not my first choice to move to after my decision to leave the Air Force. I was offered a job with the ATF Denver Division and turned down a job that would’ve guaranteed me at least 2 more years living in a state that I loved. I grew up on the Southside of Chicago. I have no idea what bubble you’re referring to and I have never answered dishonestly when people ask me about my experiences and what I think about the current criminal state of Chicago.

The comparison with the Raiders is interesting because they’re a hell of a lot better than people give them credit for. Which is exactly what I’ve been saying in this thread about Chicago. Im not emotional at all, I’d love to move to Colorado but I take care of my obligations here and enjoy a place that I’ve called home for over 20 years. Yes, some of our taxes are trash. We have a problem with voting in liberals who only use their government position to better themselves while this city constantly gets fucked over. We do have a shit ton of homeless, they pour into this city from every single surrounding suburb due to this city actually having shelters. You’re absolutely wrong about Mexico though. Compare the violent areas of that country with the violent areas of Chicago and let me know what your findings reveal. Here’s another thought, let’s compare the non violent areas and see who’s living better.

Fuck off with the undesirable talk. A lot of good people get trapped and left behind but it’s not like you care.
 
It's because the democrat base is so demoralized and brain washed they don't see anything in front of them. This is why Gavin Newsom has a big B day celebration at a Michelin 3 star while shutting down SF and Sacremento.

Do as thee not as me.
Republicans are worse hypocrites

I’m CPD and I’ve already made several comments in this thread about how bad the crime is. Trust me, I’m well aware of where this city is failing.
 
One had a slightly higher capacity limit, the other closed the entire beach except for himself.
One is an asshole, one is a potential super spreader.

I have no doubt Newsom is an asshole. You dont get that rich by screwing people over.

The other guy hogs a beach and still manages to become a superspreader

So what are you saying, Newsom not wearing his mask and not following the rules is somehow different than Christie doing the same?

Yeah I think both were wrong but theres degrees of wrongness to this. A private dinner with some friends vs going out and hugging people in an event with hundreds of people are different

Just like how BLM protest with mask and socially distanced is different that the Bunker Boy Maggot non-mask rallies.

Come on, you know its not. The supposed issue here isn't the "people at the party" its where they spread it after. I suppose next you'll tell me all the people at Newsome's party quarantined after.
 
My neighbors were having a thanksgiving party with more than 12 people and I called Mayor Lightfoot personally and she sent a fully armored swat team and arrested all of them because I am good comrade.

You think politicians will follow their own rules which they set up for the people? nah. A mayor of a largest city in Ontario broke the covid rules and shown up at a huge area full of people. I just find it ironic that some politicians have the nerve to say the word "Mentally" when these lockdowns are having the opposite effects on people's mentally.

Oh and as for the mayor nah his probably fine and he used tiktok to promote the covid rules. Yes really that ridicules.
our governor got caught going to a party.
