Home burglaries reported in Lincoln Park, Lake View



North siders think it's possible to isolate themselves from the poverty on the South and West side, looks like the proletariat feel differently :francis:

hell, if I'm gonna rob a home, I'd hit up lincoln park as well. them yuppies got more stuff most likely, and they're also more likely to be gone during the day at work. why victimize the hood where it's more likely to be more people around in the day time and you end up with worse shyt??

Somewhere in Chicago
When your step pops got you in this suspect ass alley on 57th and Morgan to pick up this water heater for the cheap from some hustling ass nikka. Got you all out here like

:lupe:

Reminds me of when me and my brother would do weekend work as kids for my Uncle Frank and he'd have us and our cousin Kenny watching the pick up as he'd try to barter like we're in Skyrim. Old black men who work with their hands know about them come ups.

:heh:

Yo!!! Spike Lee was just on Wgci about an hour ago going off about Chi-raw &Chicago's mixed reactions for it!!! Like breh, calm the fukk down.

that movie doesn't interest me. the premise sounds stupid, and from the previews it looks like a musical. plus it seems a lot of the actors are playing into black stereotypes.

I like musicals & I feel on the sense on it too, but I'm willing to give it a chance. When I first saw the trailer, I wasn't fully won over until I saw Jennifer Hudson (Spike's go to girl when defending the movie) since she is personally affected by Chicago violence, she wouldn't have done it if it weren't done right.
