Not a fan of the headline with the stat, being as it cherry picked one particular week. Next week it might read "shootings down 60%"

It's ridiculous either way. There is no hope for Chicago inner city.

Yes, its ridiculous, it's been ridiculous for some time, I gave up hope a long time ago, which is why I moved away.

You dont have to live in the "inner" city to decide that there are better options out there for a family.

so you really have no better insight on chicago poverty than someone who lives in timbuktu
everybody knows that there are better options for a family than living in a bad chicago neighborhood. much better. many if not most of those who live in such neighborhoods don't want to be there

Every post I read from you tends to be argumentative, I think you just really enjoy picking fights by antagonizing people until you finally get a rise out of them.
Sorry, but I don't enjoy those types of games, go poke some other bear please.

History needs to be preserved, but correct context needs to be added to teach future generations of all the injustices in human history,
The Usa has brutal past, and I do not deny that. Intellectually correct the history books, and teach students what actually occurred without the sugar coating, and also why it was wrong.

Edit: 18 killed this weekend. After a relatively slow start and two good years of significant decreases in homicides, Chicago is now quickly on pace to hit 2016 homicide numbers.

Imagine that...slavery was resolved almost 4000 years ago in Egypt.
We havent even reached 200 years without slavery.
And the Egyptian slaves went and formed their own land - Canaan. In sharp contrast to the slaves of the past here...whose greatgrandchildren and grandchildren have to see the oppressors statue even when they go to a public park.
A park for which they also pay taxes to help maintain.
