You can't assume they don't care about others pains... it doesn't take away the need to be more conscious of self's immediate quality of life...

Statistics & Numbers & Titles mean nothing when people are simply not feeling safe merely walking to school. We can quote numbers & charts & stats all day & none of that matters to the people who live in fear of those whose complexion mirrors theirs.

There are many dangerous cities & neighborhoods in America... some more than others yes... but that doesn't take away the fact that there are people who at the end of the day are actually living in fear night in & night out regardless of city.

You can't tell someone how they should FEEL...
Your post does not address the political reasons of why they are highlighting Chicago over other cities and I know for damn sure Trump in particular doesn't care. This is just an emotional appeal to ignore the real reasons of why this is their obsession.

I support this. Yall can say whatever but youre not living it. We now have a place in South Loop...the shyt I endure walking with my child on South Michigan Ave... This is supposed to be the safe part. I cant even imagine living further south. I love Chicago but the crime is making this place unbearable. Something has to be done.

ALL RESPONSES LIKE THIS NEED TO BE NEGGED TO HELL AND BACK THEN PUT ON THE IGNORE LIST.

So, what is the best solution? I agree with sending in Black troops to police their own community. However, Trump sending them in will target the innocent. Just like in the 80's with Reagan.


Yall really dont get it. The innocent are already targeted. You can make this political all you want and I agree that it is, but something has to be done. People are dying. Let me ask yall this since I keep getting questioned... How many of yall are victims of gun violence? How many of yall have people in your immediate family that were/are victims? My oldest brother was gunned down in our front yard, my youngest older (half brother) was killed by the guy he killed (best friends and they shot each other over money) right outside my uncle's garage. 2 lives gone within the hour over bullshyt. People from our hood still remember the fear when this happened. People my family dont even know still say RIP Dre, RIP Tone.. This shyt is literally destroying our collective mental health. This is shyt you never get over. How many kids have seen someone get shot in Chicago. Our people already go through too much. Our kids should not HAVE to grow up like this. If we cannot stop it then we need to bring someone in who can.

Also,

My husband and I work closely (fundraising and outreach) with Action Now and SEIU. Its too much to get into but these orgs link with other orgs to push policy and even candidates into office (we got Kim Foxx in, tried to get Chuy in). Theres a lot of poltics involved but I can say without doubt that for these efforts to continue the money cannot stop and folks are tired of wasting their money. Something drastic needs to happen or shyt will get worse and Im not talking just crime. Specifically the Fair Tax prop that will indirectly effect crime. Theres also the union war thats ongoing and directly effects poor families who live in high crime areas. Alot of shyt is intertwined and will not happen if the necessary people dont think its worth the cost. These people need the poor cause its how they get paid but they need them alive and well cause thats also how they get paid (well meaning doing better than they were but not too good). Like I said its alot to get into but theres a reason Chicago has started getting all this attention last 5 yrs..

I'm merely sympathizing with people who want to feel safe in their daily lives... all of those other titles & statistics are just words...

Also to anyone questioning me about South Loop... First of all I dont owe u shyt so fukk you. fukk I need to lie for? I have been harrassed numerous times walking anywhere from Roosevelt to 27th. Last month I was robbed coming out of that specialty convenince store on 16th right under the condos. Just Wednesday, I picked my kid up from daycare and a very large group of young people, mostly male, verbally attacked me in everyway when I didnt respond to one who called out "Can I eat ur ass?" I didnt cuss him out, or reprimand his young ass as I should have been able to considering our age difference.. I simply kept walking WITH MY 3 YO and this happens.

I will say I walk alot, way more than most people so Im exposed to more but its fukking South Loop... I didnt expect this in South Loop.

Sorry about your brother and others that you knew were gunned down. I'm saying that you really don't want a doofus like Trump pulling that move. I think the Black military troops should go in and police it. Check out MrSuperboi210 AKA Harvey he gives a good perspective on this. Also, it goes way deep from the crooked law-enforcement to drug kingpins. All should be taken down. It has to be done strategically is my point. We also need good relations between the community and those troops who want to police.

Just my opinion with all due respect.

That's nice and all, but doesn't change the underlying issue. People need to stop falling for these old tactics that these disingenuous people use about solving complex problems with easy answers.

You took time out your day to look up old tweets and make this thread by the way it's called a start. This is the beginning if somebody believed that he would be doing that. He wouldn't just send them in off top without knowing what he wanted to target.

Falling for what tactics might I ask?

White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Friday that rampant gun violence in Chicago is “driven more by morality than anything else.”

Sanders was pushing back on the notion that easy access to guns contributes to violent crime in the Windy City.

“I think that the problem there is pretty clear that it’s a crime problem. I think that crime is probably driven more by morality than anything else,” she said at an off-camera briefing at the White House.

White House: Chicago gun violence 'driven by morality'

:mjpls:

Morality, huh?
