Another One?
These only pop up on our radar when it means there's a dead body lying out in public:
A man was gunned down outside the Archer Orange Line station early Sunday morning, and for ten long minutes he lay on the ground without anyone calling 911 about gunfire or his injuries.
The delayed response wasn’t just because a hesitant CTA worker waited ten minutes to call 911 after hearing the gunshot, but also because Mayor Brandon Johnson pulled the plug on Chicago’s ShotSpotter network one year ago this month. The controversial decision removed a system that once alerted officers to gunfire in the city’s most violent neighborhoods, even when people did not call 911.
Luckily, the aldercreature representing this area (Julia Ramirez) voted against ShotSpotter, so no whining from that direction.

The new normal.
Often, as I chalk them, I marvel at those extended moments of peaceful serenity, which linger languidly, as a comfy cloud surrounding the newly spawned corpse.

The “victim” was one of the regulars on the CTA. He thought it was a good idea to whack his winkey infront of a man and woman who were together. The “offenders” left the train when then”victim” followed them off the train aggressively and then he was shot by the “offender”. One less problem for the cta if you ask me
you gotta stop the calling the neighborhood's shot spotter was in "the most violent parts of the city" how about something warmer and fuzzier like "the most misunderstood"?
*yawn*
next!
Mayor Conehead simply does not care.
Until “Mama and “The DinDoNuthin” crowd arrives.
