I recently told a friend in Edgewater (right about "there") that I can no longer visit you after dusk. I've recently noticed he changed his tune from protesting about the Subway opening there, to worrying about gunfire near his home.
ReplyDeleteI'm no longer sorry that these "liberals" feel they have to live this way. Broken relationships, distrust, finger pointing,ignorance, hate....... Wake The F up people (and I'll be more than happy to associate with you again).
"White t-shirt" too! I saw the murder @ Berwyn and Winthrop a few years ago. Right before my eyes.
As it gets closer to Christmas, the robberies are going to increase. Be careful out there.
ReplyDeleteVery true CNR. This is how the ghettos will do their Xmas shopping.
ReplyDeleteFor sure! Stay off those trains too!
ReplyDeleteThe attacker in the white/grayish t-shirt was not black. He was hispanic. I saw/heard part of the incident.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know anything about a death in the vicinity of Granville and Kenmore on Dec 30th? There were many police cars and at least one ambulance.
