    Some of it is pretty funny!

    A politically biased, window dressed perspective of a city which has parts that could be included in the next Mad Max movie - lawlessness, and defunded police have given criminals a great foothold in Chicago!

    I'm waiting for some genuine commentary of the record shootings, murder, and citizen despair...
