        Chicago will never overtake St Louis for homicides/100k. Only reason CHI repeatedly makes headlines and STL doesn't is CHI is in a Blue state and STL is in a Red state. Media's ratings go up when they draw Republicans to chant "CORRUPT CHICAGO DEMS!" and "DEM GUN LAW FAIL, LOL".

        I wonder how much money goes from drug dealers to bureaucrats in these cities. I find it ridiculous that they don’t have the resources to at least slow down the killings. So fucking sad.

        Particularly when the victim is a small child who is accidentally shot and killed. It’s a disgrace.

        With his pride of declaring Chicago a "Sanctuary City", obviously going for the latter.

        If you're talking about me, I know what The Onion is, but I still felt like making a point about the point they made, even in sarcasm. Does that help you "justify" it?

        He is a criminal. Always has been. Always will be UNLESS the people of Chicago throw him out. That is definitely what needs to be done.

        I don't know why East St Louis stands for this slander. It has a smaller population than Chicago and more murder. Why can't it get the recognition? Chicago with their fancy press agents!
