ReplyDeleteThank you CNR for your constant vigilance onthe crap going on in this city. Especially the North Side which is often not reported on.
ReplyDeleteYup, thanks CNR. I mean if the knives and stabbings aren't enough, I had no idea there were this many people running around areas I used to frequent, and businesses I used to patronize,.....with guns (while I'm not-strapped). Really not surprising but good to know!
ReplyDeleteI wonder what daly downer said. But yeah, Peterson Ave is a haven for vehicular accidents. Much worst than Congress and Clinton downtown. And I live a block from Ridge and Clark and I missed out on hearing any gunshots @ Senn.
ReplyDeleteNothing contentious. Just realized I included a little too much personal info and didn't want to put myself out there like that. I'm paranoid, because the world is filled with kooks.
ReplyDeleteThe other poster is right about Peterson & accidents. I have lived near there since forever and people are driving down Peterson at a decent speed and just don't expect there to be a light at Rockwell. Its really not needed since Rockwell is not a major North/South road in this area. The lights at California & Western along Peterson should be enough.
