    Basically this is the exact copy of the failed surge strategy in Iraq and of course it will fail to keep anyone safe. This will only add to the crisis. We demand investment over incarceration and we deserve dignity and liberation! pic.twitter.com/3pk3DCqQ8e

        I'm a lifelong Chicagoan. It's drugs and guns. Talk to the teachers. 7th graders walking around with $1400 cash in pockets from drug sales. How's the regular little part-time school job gonna compete? The innocent get caught in the crossfire.

        Rahm is silently colluding in modern day gentrification. They let areas get bad. Won't fix them up or put money in that area. Poor folks move out. Then BOOM 300,000 condos are built there. The police are aiding in this as well. All these killings? You'd be a fool to think

        Someone don't know something. All these speed cameras, red light cameras, violence cameras, but nothing is ever recorded huh? Yet they spent over 20mil on a bean. Meanwhile, they closed over 20 schools. Played off hundreds of teachers. Won't pay the ones that are left. Even

        Though, the schools are severely over crowded now. They are canceling sports, after school programs, art and music programs. Yet, you can spend millions on rocks and pictures water falls? They tear down the projects, just to build "nicer" high rises in their place. You think

        “The beatings will continue until morale improves.” Rahm demands attitudinal change in the city while flooding the streets with more cops.

        You have to get rid of the obamas and Rham Emanuel if you want Chicago to thrive again.
