ReplyDeleteThey attacked the victims (3) as they were exiting their vehicle after parking. Thieves also stole their cell phones. At least one victim was physically assaulted, beaten in the middle of the street.
Hey, my partner is losing her job, wonder if we should use the economy as an excuse to go out and rob, steal, mug and burglarize the rest of society like these ghetto thugs do???? Of course not . Why? Because we were NOT raised that way. Poverty and the economy is not an excuse to do what these people do. It's a lifestyle for them!
ReplyDeleteAll the criminals already have guns, Its time we have them too (legally lol). Don't be a victum be a victor.

ReplyDeleteThings are only going to get worse people. Everyday the state of illinois releases thousands of criminals who have no job options when they get out. They aren't going to just stay on the south side. They are going to go where the prey is the easiest and the finacial payoffs are the highest.
