Hard to have any sympathy for a city that refuses to stand up and solve its own problems.
Maybe the big murder rate there is natural selection at work.
Why don't they elect some more 0bama rejects?

The Chicago-area residents are the most maligned people in the country...IMO. They pay among the highest sales taxes and gasoline prices in the nation...and yet are forever told that their city is perpetually BROKE. Where the heck does all that money go...and why don't the residents there take to the streets and ask for the politicians' heads?
I couldn't be happier to call myself an "ex-Chicagoan".
