The way it currently is. The good people who live there cant defend themselves and are at the mercy of the winds. Its a necessary transition state, the city afterward will be a completely different place, like NY after Giuliani

It's okay, I live near enough to San Francisco that everyone is gay and can inherently tell the difference between Hunter's Orange and Safety Orange. Minutia like that are easy to discern with the advanced optical acumen that comes along with gay fluoride poison in the water.

im not sure if you actually know anything about chicago but what you said here is dead wrong. chicago isn't ny, it doesn't have widespread general crime. it has far more specified crime to areas. the city also isn't interconnected the same way NY is. crime grew on a general scale in NY because it was an old city by the time urban crime rose, and the population was scattershot across many buroughs. each immigrant population spawned a criminal class that over many decades infested the whole city. You can get your pocket picked or car jacked in any borough. Chicago isn't the same. The city planners segregated poor populations on the south side of chicago with the industrial district and main city between the blacks and the white suburbs to the north and north east. generally you're as safe in Naperville as you could be in a quaint montana village, whereas the issues in NY leech out more severely to the surrounding area. this can be easily expressed by the "new yorker" inter-sectional group, they've grown together into a community. Midwest cities like milwaukee or chicago just aren't the same. there is an above average amount of crime city wide, shocker shocker, but it's still heavily localized. in a city like New York you can use a combat system like an antibiotic, such as stop and frisk, which is released into a system but targets specifically. u do that because it's widespread. in chicago you need to amputate and arm, because it's dead. you need to watch for infection at the sight of severing, but the arm needs to go.



whew you're safe then, they'll know right away you support the Village People rather than being mistake for one of those midwestern racists they moved to CA to escape.

Both of my parents are from Wisconsin...how worried should I be? Sometimes I'm afraid that when I go out in public, I'll slip and accidentally say "pop" instead of soda and they'll detain me and deport my parents back to Madison.

back to madison might be not too bad. we have decriminalized pot and as Tony Evers just won the governor seat he's about to send progressive waves through the state emanating from Madison. The city these days is so liberal i can hardly believe it, in a good way. I remember when the farmer's market only spanned 2 sides of the capital square, now i covers all 4 with an arm reaching 3 blocks down to state street.

just dont forget that "drinking fountains" are "bubblers" when visiting WI and you'll be fine. and never call "soda" or "pop" that isnt coca cola "coke".

Why would that make a difference? So what if it isn't New York? The way I see it either method would help

Eating a carrot while you have a cold helps, it just doesn't help much. the differences between the cities matter drastically, you said the good people there can't defend themselves. when in reality the "good people there" don't need to, they're safely in the northern suburbs with the whole city between them and most of the crime. the "good people" also live outside of city limits, where purchasing a gun is a lot easier. your idea to give them guns is a bit silly, they by and large dont need them and if they want them they already have them. gun ownership is big in the suburbs, they're a lot of out customers as we're not far from the city. chicago isn't ny, it's not a place where only bad guys have guns. its a place where in one area most of the bad guys live and they have illegal guns.

comment sections like that make me feel better about situations like this. media really wants to sell the "one simple bill can prevent this" narrative and people aren't buying it.

I'm not 100% whether it only includes acts committed by U.S. citizens or permanent residents, but I believe it is exclusive, based on the tagline of the article: "Trump’s fixation on demonizing Islam hides true homegrown US terror threats."
