So who came up with the idea of building a casino in the middle of crime ridden River North in the first place?

How many of y'all spent any time in Englewood? About as much as these comments suggest, I imagine. CPD data makes the point: Englewood reports much higher levels of violent crime relative to River North (rates 6-9x higher). No amount of violence is acceptable but come on folks, some evidence-based perspective please.

I’m confused about what the point is. Englewood has been bad for a long time. All Brandon and company have done for them is double their property taxes.

The entire city has gotten more dangerous under the last two far-left mayorships.

I debunked this leftist ideology that Chicago is safer "just look at the data durrr". The leftist 12 yr old mind will only see the amount of crimes "reported" (probably a fabricated #) trending downwards in the Chicago crime database. The issue is that the amount of arrsests for crimes reported over the past 2+ decades has decreased significantly by close to 70%. Do the math lefties.

What is your point? Because the crime happened in a casino where predators are looking for a quick hit therefore river north is dangerous?

Gfy

Turned out there were 2 separate incidents within a week. One in the parking garage and the other in its bathroom

The mob needs to do a better job protecting the casino patrons. Because we live in a city where we can’t have police anymore.

It was the democrats idea to make River North crime ridden, like the rest of the city.

Right from the democrat in denial playbook. Just blame the republicans.

How long till you try to pretend like Brandon is a republican like you guys did when you had enough of Lightfoot?

And no one saw ?

When was the last time Englewood had a mass shooting with 4 or more casualties? For River North, it was 5 months ago.

Hi all, so I found a platinum ring (which I assumed it's an engagement ring as it has dates and initials engraved on top.) And a Divvy tag (I have no idea what it was until I googled it. Apparently it's a bike sharing service in Chicago) in a briefcase I ordered online. I was thinking of returning the item back to the store but that wouldn't help the person who lost the ring. Attached is a picture of them.

What should I do now?
