Wow? There is corruption in Chicago? I never knew that. I thought all elected officials were saints.

This thread has proven to be a treasure trove of new insightful groudbreaking information.

Oh dear lord! How do we survive in the most dangerous city in the U.S. in the worse winter climate in the U.S. ?!

I am surprised nobody has mentioned yet how we have the worst looking women,the most stuck-up women, and the highest percentage of overweight people of all U.S. cities.

Chicagoans need to keep in mind how corrupt their city government truly is and has proven to be over the decades. There are reasons that the FBI will not accept Chicago crime stats. They are often incomplete or inaccurate. That said, Chicago has a problem with the amount of hot heads and gangbangers that it attracts. It had a reputation as a seedy place from the start. From the heavy youth violence on the south and west sides, to more recent examples of murders or attacks in places like uptown or bucktown. It's not rampant everywhere as some would have you believe, but the naysayers obviously do not follow the news closely or they are insulated in a nice suburb and pretend they are a city dweller and know it all.

Preach!!!!! I am glad some one else sees through the BS

Also,if your luggage gets stolen at O'Hare,it gets reported as lost. Lost property is not reported as a crime,further skewing the stats.

Lost property is not reported as a crime because it is not a crime to lose property.
