Well, your sources can't both be right

Plus, she's having bus loads of ille....immigrants come to her city and she's not happy about it. I can't fathom it, after all she's got a "Sanctuary City" designation, so all ille... immigrants should be welcome.

Is this like the Summer of Love? Are the leftists going to riot and burn things to the ground in order to intimidate people in to voting for dems while Kamala Harris bails them out of jail and the media pretends that right wingers are the real problem again?

Actually, neither of them sourced anything...they just wrote stuff with no link. So we have no idea who read what incorrectly or if they were just seeing a niche area or a single month etc. etc. etc.

Homicides are down compared to 2021, but are still up from recent years.

https://news.wttw.com/2022/09/01/448...down-last-year

The sad reality of the increased crime is that the people bearing the brunt of it are poorer and minorities.
(That's been covered in other threads, can always search on Chicago murder map if you know the city or look for a list of victim names)

Gotta love all those police reforms, soft sentencing, zero bail for violent offenders designed in response to BLM huh?
