  1. According to an article in the Chicago SunTimes, it seems Tom Tunney is more concerned about his restaurants being affected by the food trucks than he is about the crime in his ward. Shouldn't he be asking for more police???

    "Restaurant-owning alderman demands limits on mobile food truck proposal
    Ald. Tom Tunney (44th), owner of Ann Sather’s Restaurants, demanded Wednesday that brick-and-mortar restaurants like his own be protected before Chicago legalizes mobile food trucks with cooking on the premises."

  2. The problem in Boystown is probably separate from the current Flashmob problem, it's been around since about when the Center on Halsted opened.

  3. The police need to be out on the streets late at night on their bikes not those ATV's (You can hear them coming 3 blocks away)...BOYSTOWN needs a group like the guardian angels...FIGHT BACK...these are OUR streets.

  4. So, what's stopping Boystown peeps from creating their own security force?
