How much higher do taxes for the CTA need to be before they can find this guy?

They care so much about minorities, women, and anyone from marginalized communities and groups. Until they get shot, robbed, killed, or sexually assaulted.

Here’s a theory, we could have not spent millions on illegals and instead invested it into city services…

I can’t believe safety on public transportation is a political issue.

The CTA spent $91M on security services in 2024, majority of which came from public funding (your taxes). We should be able to take public transportation without having to look over your shoulder 24/7.

Especially with the amount of money that goes into safety.

I can’t believe that safety PERIOD is a political issue. The city needs to do a lot better for everyone who lives here.

He needs life without parole when they catch him. You can disagree with what ICE is doing (I do in how they conduct themselves) and also be anti-crime which should be a bipartisan issue

What an illogical question. Taxes for CTA goes towards, well CTA. Taxes we pay for police goes towards finding criminals. Hate on CTA all you want, but we Chicagoans love our CTA. It is the main fabric that holds the city together. You are happy to pay billions to terrorize and ruin immigrant communities for no reason. You have a problem with public transit for the whole city for fewer billions. Typical delusional MAGA!

If you look into the CTA budget (it’s all publicly available) you can see for “Security Services” they spent $69M in 23’, spent $91M in 24’ and proposed a budget of $85M in 25’.

With over $1B of their total budget being publicly funded, I’d imagine we can get better security for the CTA with the amount they spend yearly on security. But we don’t, and that’s the issue.

I’m confused. Is it racist to want a guy who stabbed an innocent woman waiting for the train to be in jail?

We’re in this mess because people like you think it’s racists to have law and order. When black people are significantly more likely to be victims of violent crime.

Curious what’s a fair salary in MA?

I’ve been with the company 8.5 years & am the only one in my role, which they can’t operate without. I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.

Highly confused.
