Its weird how these statistics maps match so closely


White supremacy in visual form

When I first moved here, one time I was downtown, and around Chicago Ave. Thought I was going north back toward my place, but I was actually going straight west. Ended up in a pretty sketchy area, to say the least.

Out of all the angry, racist politicians in this country, she might be at the top of the list.

I hope you're not serious.


She's racist against white people, not black people. Of course leftists love her.

The West Side of Chicago is just as bad as the South, maybe even worse (see, eg, the murder pin map posted above in this thread). But a lot of outsiders don't seem to know this. They think as long as they stay above a certain longitude they will be fine. But heading due west from decent parts of downtown can get you into some real scary areas quick.

I wish people would stop saying this line. It has lost all meaning. You're Mayor, do something.

That bald idiot legitimately thought he'd be the POTUS by saying all white people are bad.

Correct. Government workers have a lot more job security when people actually want their help. If they provide real help that eliminates that need, they are out of a job.

What was Chicago like compared to the rest of the state during that span?

DiBlasio is at least tied for worst with her if not ahead of her ...Beetlejuice is from Massillon ,Ohio ( 15 min from my house) .We all had heard she was making her way up the ranks and at least had the book smarts to be a major player ...but problem is ,shes racist ,she's about as WOKE as one can get and gets away with it bc Chicago is too big and diverse for anything to happen to her in terms of impeachment ...someone is going to have to unseat her in an election .AND since elections are rigged ,good luck getting her little fuzzy head out anytime soon ....

Despite Rauner winning every county except one (guess which), it was still a close race. This was not long after the fiasco that was Blago.

quote:

Quinn was defeated by Rauner in the general election, 50%-46%. He lost every county except Cook County. His term as governor ended on January 12, 2015.


The rest of the state is what has the power to put a Republican in the statehouse. Chicago's voting is a foregone conclusion.

Checking in late to this thread.

After being here for two years, while I'm no fan of Lightfoot, in my estimation, Kim Foxx is a WAY bigger problem. Doesn't matter one iota how many people they arrest if Foxx and her cronies let them out the next day.
