Let us not forget that Obama spent 20 years playing "community organizer" in Chicago, and did absolutely nothing to address the crime problem on his hometurf, the city's South Side. His idea of organizing w straight from the Sol Alinsky playbook: instead of teaching peope how to fish, he taught them how to steal other people's fish through the political process. Increasing government handouts and perpetuating dependency on government was his stock in trade, all while bullets from gangbangers killed innocent children, among others, when the gunfire penetrated thin walls. And for this, he was promoted to an Illinois Senate seat, a U.S. Senate Senate, and the Presidency. Having a preacher-like voice may have fooled the Democtats, and t the country because he was the first black president, but his "Hope and Change" didn't fool anyone with a functioning brain. And porkchop Pritzger was one of his early and most generous supporters. What we got was an incompetent who did lasting damage to our Republic and the democratic process, as well as a traitor who did his best to undermine the Presidency of his ssuccessor. Having grownup in NW Indiana, I have followed Chicago's decline for years. Every mayor is worse than the one before.
If George Soros had not paid millions to hide Obama's background...Obama would never have become president. George Soros who created economic chaos in five other countries...came to America to do the same. Soros set up Obama...and he controlled his puppet president. George Soros is a very twisted man who has caused a great deal of problems here with his Open Society.. putting his paid off judges on benches and instigating racial trouble in the U.S. Obama's community organizing in Chicago was part of Soros's devious plan to break down the morals of the people. America would have been far better off, if it had not given Gerge Soros citizenship in the 1960s. He should have been back in Hungary, where he would have been in prison for his criminal schemes.
The murder stats in Chicago are actually higher than statistics report - for instance, if a victim is taken to a suburban hospital, it does not appear as a Chicago stat. Also, I believe if a victim dies a few days after an incident, courts may count it as a murder, but not consistantly in statistic counts due to creative wording.
Of course Pritzker should be ashamed; any sane human being would be. But shame is a uniquely human thing, and to be a human requires a soul. He is not a human being - he has a hole where a human’s soul would be. He has only a black hole filled with self indulgent evil.
My sense from recent hints in the news is that Dem-run large cities are indeed and have for some time been playing fast and loose with their crime statistics. I'm shocked, SHOCKED I tell ya.
I wonder how much of that chart of Chicago is reflecting the TRUE number of murders or have the numbers been “fudged” so that it doesn’t show the true numbers of homicides. Regardless, THANK YOU for doing the footwork to show this comparison!! I agree with you WHOLEHEARTEDLY that Governor Pritzker should be ashamed of himself, both for his unwillingness to work with President Trump in providing the National Guard & additional police to curb the number of murders AND that he is overfed. 😉 Unfortunately, because the Governor & the Mayor REFUSE to keep their citizens safe, they are leaving President Trump with no other alternative BUT to step in!! His #1 duty as president is the safety of the American citizens from both foreign AND domestic threats so he HAS to step in. What I love about what the president is doing, besides stopping the violent crime in these Demoncrat-run cities & states, is that it’s exposing those leaders who are for America & those leaders who are NOT so beautifully for all to see so that we can, once & for all, purge our country of these traitors by getting them out of office. FINALLY we have a president who is for us, not against us! Praise God!
I don’t think Trump ever had any real intention of sending the National Guard into Chicago. He did it to troll the politicians there, and of course they rose to the bait to defend crime.
Agreed that the governor should be ashamed of himself (though I doubt that he knows how to do so). However, a more interesting, to me at least, question would not be how Chicago's murder/assault rates compare to Austria's, but how do they compare to Washington, DC's. I did some research that even in a Google AI response had the overall crime rate in DC, even with cooked numbers, at 5-6 times that of *any other city in the US*. That implies the murder rate also, but, I've been too busy reading all your articles today to get back to that question. Thanks for all you do to keep truth alive, John!
How could you possibly compare Austria and Chicago. They have diametrically opposite histories. Austria is an entire country of wealth. The disparity between incomes in Chicago is vast.
John, a great article as always, and Austria sounded like a peaceful place while you were there.
I know this is not the topic of your Chicago article, although it might soon be considering other areas like Detroit and Canada are leaning this way, but what to you make of Austria allowing Sharia Law to be binding in civic law and arbitration?
Seems like they’re opening the door to allowing that “law system” in other legal issues as well. I don’t see how a country survives under multiple law systems. Thanks.

Victor Orban would know whatvtomdonsith soros.
"Much of Chicago is a violent dump and Pritzger should be ashamed of himself for defending such a savage state of affairs."
Sad for Chicagoans. Their awful mayor doesn't help.

Also, I believe if a victim dies a few days after an incident, courts may count it as a murder, but not consistantly in statistic counts due to creative wording.
That’s what I was wondering.

How accurate are Illinois crime statistics?? Murders being reported as assaults…🤔
My sense from recent hints in the news is that Dem-run large cities are indeed and have for some time been playing fast and loose with their crime statistics. I'm shocked, SHOCKED I tell ya.
My thought exactly!!

You lived among Austrians, not Chicago negroes.
big difference, one could even say huge difference.
Good news is, with the Great Reset pending, we won’t have to babysit these idiots for another century. The tit is dry.
preach👌🏽

Now do the racial demographics comparison……
Wheres Mitch McConnell
Arrest Bill Barr

This is a ridiculous comparison.
All True John but you miss the Government supplying guns and drugs to the gangs which causes most of the havoc.
John, a great article as always, and Austria sounded like a peaceful place while you were there.

Sharia law has existed in the UK for a number of years. They have at least 80 sharia courts.
that statistic pretty much means the UK is done for. Just a matter of time.
Exactly.
