I think it is pretty obvious, though it is funny to watch people use Chicago when they clearly don't know what they are talking about.

"There has been a lot of media attention recently focusing on Chicago’s 2013 murder rate, and for good reason. In the first six days of 2013, 12 people were murdered in the city. At a rate of two murders per day, this puts Chicago on a pace for 730 murders for the 2013 year. Compare that with 2012, where there were 506 murders in the city, or 18.7 murders for every 100,000 citizens."

Your article gives a hint.

Add to that Obama's right hand man runs the city. Rohm is only known for his association with Obama.

Obama's home town, populated with his supporters who you'd figure would be a shining example of goodness as the result of the exhaulted one's speaking ability, transparency, nobel peace prize, community organizing activity and general problem solving ability. Chicago is Obama's resume.

Terrorists, un repentant bombers and fugitive radical inthe form of bill ayres and bernadine dohrn, rev wright ,etc associates of Obama, spew revolt and violence.

these days the only time Chicago is in the news is its violence and Obama family visits....
Apparently Obama leaves disaster in his wake rather than birds and flowers, chicago reflects his first steps as he leads the nation down the same path that traces back to Chicago.

Chicago's lineage of dem mayors all eventually attended local prisons. Thus politicians from Chicago are suspect from the get go.

Chicago has a history of corruption and murder going back to the earliets days. "the night chicago died", a song that hit the top ten which everyone sang the words to.

Chicago and Obama are inextricably linked.

Statistically, disarmed chicago is more dangerous than Afghanistan. I find the irony chilling.

Good thing you stopped reading there. You are really bad at critical thinking and coming up with your own logic.

Because anything is fair game with them. Even cities that he has nothing to do with.

Of course not, but they would sure be proud of him.

Probably the same reason there's so much anti-gun talk, when murders have dropped considerably.

Just a guess.
