Now This Is Interesting!

While searching for the latest homicide stats in Chicago I stumbled upon this rather interesting site. It's full of facts, figures, charts and graphs. Don't let the name fool you.

Looks like the Daley boys had a competition! "ometer gages"...hahahahahaha!

Are the Dailey guys still there? Jeez, since the 60’s! Haven’t followed that closely.

What, no one from Chicago chiming in, yet?

It is a normal event on the evening news. In fact, if Chicago goes a weekend without a killing, it is front page news. The city is one big shooting gallery. Lately, carjackings seem to be the thing to do. I avoid it like the plague.

Looking forward to the day some punk tries to carjack someone with a concealed carry license and pays the price. Actually, as I think about it, I think it may have happened one time already.

If I were driving through there I would have the cannon in my lap at all times. Cocked, with a round in the pipe.

Every morning I watch the news from Philadelphia at least one person shot.
And they are getting younger every day.

The only times i felt nervous trucking in or thru Chicago was the couple times i delivered to a place in Cicero....bad bad area...locked doors and dont stop for anyone....they said to just run em over and keep going....
E St Louis is bad too...

****, Cicero is like Mayberry now compared to the West Side.

Ahhh.....the quiet solitude of Vermont countryside...

All Chicago needs is tornadoes every year; those scare the heck out of thug types for some reason and they won't live here.

Real Estate agents ought to put the neighborHOOD stats on their listings, like a cancer warning.

Oklahoma City is the only place i have driven thru where they have helicopters flying by the tornadoes giving a play-by-play report as it moves thru town...

Golly gee-whiz. ! I wonder if there's a certain racial thread connecting all these shootings in one area?

Think ROOT CAUSE of these problems as government won't continuing to treat the symptoms (poorly as well) and not the root causes. And on this subject a question comes to mind "what's the definition of insanity?"
