95th used to be trashy af. Now cops are everywhere.

This past summer, I would always see someone getting caught trying to get through the turnstile without paying.

Sometimes them nikkas would approach you all buddy-buddy: "Can I get that tap-on, big bro"

Chicago does have transit police. They are also CPD, but their car is different.

Whenever I take the red line at night, I am ALWAYS strapped tho. and if it's too late I'm on Uber. But I only live two blocks off the 87th stop.

That built up crazy near the 87th stop. I go over there because the last docks int he city there

 

[Noriega]

So Kim Foxx can do a damn r kelly press conference but let all these lil nikkas wreaking havoc downtown out on bail.

Cook County gotta be one of the worst ran government systems in the nation

Mfs get a slap on the wrist for gun possession, tribune said it was minors who got arrested for carjackings/muggings getting released 3-4 days later

Downtown Poke Shop May Face Lawsuit After Manager Throws Chair At Black Teen (VIDEO)

On Jan. 2, 18-year-old John “Kyle” Johnson said he stopped at Poke Poké, 118 S. Wabash Ave. Johnson only to be confronted by the restaurant’s manager Matthew Fezzey, according to a news release from Chicago activist and former mayoral candidate Ja’Mal Green.

Fezzey allegedly yelled at Johnson and then threw a chair at the bewildered teenager, who recorded their interaction outside the Poke shop after he left.

In a video captured by Johnson, Fezzey said he was on edge when the teen walked into the shop because “two days ago, not trying to be racist, two black guys robbed two people right here.”

Johnson called the police shortly after he was hit with the chair, which Fezzey admitted on video.

“When you guys came in here, I just get really f—-ing defensive,” Fezzey said, referring to Johnson and two of his friends.

Johnson interjected saying, “Sir but you threw a chair at me. I’m not those guys.”

After those flash mobs shyt like this is bound to happen with any group of shorties

It’s real unfortunate when those big box stores leave, lot of folks lose jobs and a huge building is left vacant

Ain’t the one off 57 in Morgan park closing also ?

I go to that target on average twice a week. I’m legit mad. Marshall’s announced they closing their store in Marshfield plaza too. That’s easily the newest and nicest plaza on the south side and 2 of the biggest stores are leaving. It makes no sense.

Yeah, it used to be packed in there when it first opened. I think that was less than 5 years ago.

Just got outta the mental health hospital again.(I turned myself in) was in that bih for 8 days. But I think I finally got my medication straight for my bipolar and schizophrenia.

Now I’m in a nursing home. I had an Airbnb for a month but I figure I’ll get a refund and just try the nursing home especially since they feed you.

There looking for permanent housing for me too.
