| Well! If you know SCC, you must love the Box Chevy Phantom! And Chalkie! And I'm sure you've seen the famous Cabrini-Green thread: http://secondcitycop.blogspot.com/2010/10/end-of-cabrini-gre... And you must have loved this discussion of "Jared," "Brent," and their fellow Occupy bombers: http://secondcitycop.blogspot.com/2012/05/bombers-pussies.ht... Extremely low? Compared to what? What it should be? What should be your odds of being shot in a major city, anyway? San Francisco is extremely safer than Englewood, and earlier this year my wife and kids still found themselves in the middle of some kind of Norteno-Sureno shootout. They didn't get hit, though! So no harm, no foul. Alarmist, certainly. Certainly alarmist compared to your normal Chicago sources of information, which as I recall insisted that the beaches on a certain day last summer were closed due to "temperatures in the '90s:" http://secondcitycop.blogspot.com/2011/06/wall-of-lies-crumb... It's a fact that I'm not a blue-collar fellow and I don't have a blue-collar job or a blue-collar family. And no, I don't think that if I were posting comments on SCC, I'd be quite as cavalier in referring to "the animal," "mutts," etc. It does get the point across, however. |
