As a resident of that very city, I thank you for not bringing your bigoted behind here. Stay away, please.

Edit: okay, that was not a great thing for me to say. Sorry. I'm just fed up with the repeated vilification of a great American city by the buffoon-in-chief. Yes, violence in the city is a big problem, but it's hardly its defining characteristic.

Edit 2: apology rescinded.

Yes, don't worry--I'll stay away from a city that has 250 property crimes and 80 violent crimes every day while those in power keep looking the other way to be politically correct.

15 humans lost their lives yesterday in shootings, 268 during January: http://crime.chicagotribune.com/chicago/shootings

I suppose that'll end when Trump sends the Feds as he's promised on Twitter, though.

Chicago is a huge city. Yes, it has a crime problem. Yes, "something" needs to be done. That doesn't mean policies like Trump's are necessarily the right ones. I've visited Chicago. It was a beautiful and wonderful place, and I did not have any fear.

Wonderful. Stay away from the world-leading food and culture scene as well. More for the rest of us.

Under what authority? And which Feds are we talking? Just more delusional talk.

Trump has implied in twitter that he'll use the army and national guard to deal with the problems in Chicago.

So, he just declared he will violate the Posse Comitatus Act?

There's modern precedent for the President's sending in Federal troops as part of law enforcement activities [1].
