Heard people yelling and what sound like shots outside my apartment in Gold Coast.. What the hell is going on. Police need to step up and secure the main areas of the city

For the nth time, read the news and inform yourself. 13 policemen were shot. Over a 100 looters arrested. Over 400 Chicago police personnel deployed. All main roads to loop, river north, and Gold Coast were locked down until morning. Public transport was temporarily suspended in early hours for safety. This is a coordinated loot and there is police action and response.

I posted this in another thread but I think it belongs here too: Our city budget is so skewed to appeal to the affluent people on the north side of the city. Have you been in a CPS school on the south or west side? Or even visited those neighborhoods? The schools don’t have libraries or computers and the streets are shitty and full of pot holes. There are no businesses in these neighborhoods besides fast food and dollar stores. The city doesn’t invest in these areas at all so I don’t blame people for being mad. The city literally takes from them by taking away from the budget that helps them. Is taking something from a department store worse than the city shutting down someone’s school?

I don’t think looting is justified, but i understand the reason why it’s happening. There 100% needs to be budget reform.
