She comes from Florida, where there is law and order, even when the sun goes down. They aren't used to spontaneous drag races, so she probably thought nothing of it as she was crossing the street in Chicago.

You're right. It also happens in Los Angeles, and other major cities of California. Probably some other parts of the country that have been laid waste to by the far left.

Oh, look at this. In Florida!!

Two Florida teenagers are arrested for drag racing cars at 120mph before crashing as passenger, 16, is ejected from vehicle and dies.

For the love of God, this stupidity takes place all over the place. Stop with the Chicago hate.

I agree, stop the Chicago hate by stopping the criminals who are causing all the hate to exist in the first place. Refund the police. Hire more in fact. And raise their pay 25%. They are obviously needed. This stuff seems to be happening far far more often in places like Chicago and LA and other cities where the far left neutered the police, and pushed the insane "defund the police" bowel movement while preaching to the community that law enforcement is the problem in all of this.

Illegal street racing - It isn't new. It isn't political. It isn't racial. I don't know why this thread is even in this forum.

What does this have to do with drag racing?

Oh, that's right, nothing. This thread is just another excuse to rag on Chicago. At least you admit it.

Do you think people also comment on crime in NYC because they hate NYC? Or do you think people have a right to complain when their communities (USA belongs to all of it's citizens, not just you) goes to crap? I don't want to live in a 3rd world country, which is why I think it's important to come right out and say, we should not have to accept this. The leadership of Chicago and also many other liberal cities around America are failing it's citizens. Many of these citizens that live in these communities are the ones complaining the loudest. Do you think they should just shut up and take it???


I have no hate for Chicago. I lived there for half a decade and still have many friends there who I keep contact with. I would be very angry if something like this claimed the life of someone I cared about.

As is the leadership in many red places across the country. Again, what does that have to do with drag racing?

But these things aren't happening at near the same rate in "those red places". There is a very good reason people are talking about these things going on in places like Chicago, NYC, LA, etc... Because that seems to be where the vast majority of these wild incidents occur. I never said these things don't happen anywhere else by the way.


Why do you think people should just ignore crime in our nation's big cities? How could you even expect that of people???
