Chicago, Chicago !!

Better cross off Chicago from your "must visit cities" list.  You will be far safer visiting Toronto  in spite of   this.

The Chicago madness is  the kind of madness that makes law-abiding good citizens of  any given city decide to up and leave such places. Is it any wonder that blacks have such a bad reputation?  I myself would cross the street to avoid an oncoming group of  black youths and my skin is almost as dark as any one of them.  Shame on the lawmakers in Chicago who have let matters get to this degree of  lawlessness.
