Whats going on in Chicago?

Not really true my friend. I can find dozens, probably even hundreds of media articals from liberal sources on violence in Chiraq. I think it is more matter of it being Old News at this point. Like the Fukishima raditation spill, all well informed people already know and accept it.

This is just from the last couple weeks:

I found several more but just picked the top bunch. If by media you meant fox and CNN well,

All of this stuff is covered, we have a 24 hour news cycle so sometimes we numb ourselves to the parts we don't care about.

Chicago is in America right? So Chicagos problems are American problems? What does it say that America has lost control of their own cities? We see so many people here give sweden and Germany shit....but those places are nowhere near as bad and lawless as some areas in America

Chicago, Compton, East. St. Louis IL, the Bronx, parts of LA etc. All of them like mini-Iraqs in our own borders in terms of destruction and violence.

Can you expand then? Is your main critique that Obama doesn't address this himself?

Yes, that was what I was trying to get across.

Blacks will shoot blacks, but if a white shoots a black, Obama holds a press conference.

fair enough. I agree that Obama has been something of a divider and same with a portion of the left.

What are the homicide rates of your ghettoified areas? Word is your new neighbors aren't the most liberty-minded and peaceful

A lot of BLM boot lickers I know are trying to down play the racial aspect of the kidnapping and torture of a mentally handicap kid while the perpetrators were screaming fuck white people. If the roles were reversed, they would be blaming Trump and the big bad white boogey man. What a load of hypocrisy.
