Step Aside Detroit: There Is A New "Worst" City For Housing In The U.S.
While the Case-Shiller index reported earlier was weaker than had been expected, and the 20 City composite index posted its third monthly decline in a row, the headline hid a wide dispersion of home prices beneath the surface.
Perhaps just to underscore this point, Case-Shiller also provided a handy chart showing the best and worst cities for home prices in the US.
It will come as no surprise that the west, with San Diego, is where the gains are still frothiest: after all the Chinese "hot money" exporters are rushing to park their funds before the exit door slams shut, and are doing so as close to home as possible.
What was surprising is the other end of the spectrum, because as Case-Shiller clearly shows, Detroit - after staging a brief dead cat bounce in the aftermath of its bankruptcy and since sliding once again - may no longer be the worst city for home prices in the US. It has now been displaced by a city which many speculate will be nothing short of the "next Detroit."
The silver lining: while Chicago home prices have been sliding for the past 4 months, they are still up compared to last year... if only for the time being.

OBamaHomes!
What a coincidence... Chicago, Deathtroit and Baltigimmeemore are all run by long entrenched progressive liberal democraps...
My kind of town, Chicago..
Where a half trillion dollar property tax hike just isn’t high enough.
Chicago: BUDGET DIRECTOR: CITY PROPERTY TAX HIKE PLAN NOT ENOUGH
They should be taking the pitchforks and torches to the Daley family fortress.
Obama helped work these wonders for Chicago. Now he's about finished with the U.S.
Welcome... to Obamaville.
Well, really, that chart is likely to have a lot of noise in it. For example, Detroit could have gone from $1 to $2, and that would be a 100% increase!!!1!
There are lies, damned lies, and statistics.
Becasue we all know that property taxes in Chicago and Detroit are SOoooooo affordable - so close to $1 per year... LOL!
OK. Next silly comment.
So when the realtors are selling homes in Chicago they are advertising the free shooting range? Oh, I mean defending your property from the local thugs.
I'm a baaaaad person. When I clicked on the link, I was saying in my mind "Please be Chicago, please be Chicago..."
4 months of bad numbers....what happened 4 mos ago....?
oh, right....their debt was reduced to Junk status.
Buy now or be priced out forever.
Sincerely,
Your local real estate "professional".
when blacks no longer have whites around to keep up the neighborhoods the neighborhoods die completely. a detroit home owner, i know exactly what im talking about.
The Cubs win the World Series! Oh wait, Obama is a White Sox fan. U kno, being from Hawaii & Harvard & all that
It doesn’t get any better than this..
Chicago enjoys rare phenomenon of a corpse flower in bloom
One of the Chicago Botanic Garden’s eight corpse flowers, dubbed Alice, began blooming late on Monday, much to the surprise of horticulturalists.
The Chicago Tribune reports that the 55-inch flower is now stinking up the Garden’s semitropical greenhouse.
A corpse flower, also known as Amorphophallus titanum or Titan Arum, gets its name thanks to its pungent odor, which resembles a rotting animal.
Doesn't Chewbacca have a few of those in the White House Rose Garden next to the okra? Or is it just a phenomenon when (s)he's doin' some cultivatin'?
Consider it a Chewie corsage.
[Metaphor Alert!]
I was in DC when the corpse plant in the botanical gardens was blooming. Strangely seemed apropos.
Miffed;-)
Oh Noes!
Send in a Corpse-Man, stat!
Wake me up when I can buy 1000 sq ft on an acre of land for <$100K, in SoCal
Well, I've got a 2400 sq foot home with a 1500 day basement on 10 acres. 48 solar panels, a fantastic well with a 10K gallon storage tank completely fenced in 6 foot chain link, horse corrals, chicken coop built like a palace. 50X30 deck over looking the beautiful mountains. Great neighbors and very quite and peaceful. 40 miles to downtown San Diego.
Let's make a deal!
Miffed;-)
Why u sellin' then?
I've been offered an 80 acre farm in Spokane free of charge.
Miffed
nothing is free
i thought we had free healthcare in USSA...someone on msnbc said so
I know some folks who might want to rent some space in your chicken coop.
The bluest skies you have ever seen are in Spokane...
It's colored sky blue on the maps also.
We have enough people from Cali up here...but I guess if you're moving to the inland NW, rather have you in Spokane.
Why are you Miffed?
That's a long story. The short version is 3 years ago when I joined ZH, I was miffed about the state of our country and confused how we got in this state. Now I must admit I'm "pretty damn pissed off" but I'm too lazy to make a new avatar. So, think of it as sarcasm.
Miffed;-)
must be nice
The problem is that you are in Kalifornia.
A place where former Soviet gulag prisoners call oppressive.
Maybe so
But the real problem is:
"I've been offered an 80 acre farm in Spokane free of charge." = something the IRS will be interested in getting it's share of.
Which is why, I suppose, the need to SELL the other place (&, of course, pay the capital gains, if any, on that).
As I said before. NOTHING IS FREE
It is my mother-in-laws. She said we can move in anytime we wish. She will rent in the city if we choose to take it. But, yes, there are some costs involved to get it back to a working farm. The "works" is free but the "accessories" can be a bit costly. We would have to do most of the work ourselves.
I'm tempted to split it if I could find an amiable party.
Miffed
Miffed, your husband must make certain that he is the only child, otherwise I can foresee deep family trauma in my crystal ball. Just sayin' - get the paperwork right!
Yes, he is an only child. I have seen some frightening sibling rivalries so I know your concern. The interesting part is 1/2 of the water rights will revert back to the neighboring property if our children sell it. This is a significant part of its value. Oh well, their problem.
Miffed
"I'm tempted to split it if I could find an amiable party"
"it"?
80 acres is a lot for the 2 of us. It can be split into 2 parcels. However, an unruly neighbor may make that not such a good idea.
A few developers have offered to buy the land for development. Thankfully she has refused. All that place needs is rows and rows of McMansions for a cali invasion. A few neighboring farms have succumbed.
Miffed
Oh, if only I had a job I could quit!
Friggin' contracts...
Wish I had the dinero, I'd jump on that offer in a heartbeat. Think I am tired of all this city crap. Love farming, prob enjoy hunting & fishing more.
"40 miles to downtown San Diego."
Isn't Tijuana wonderfully affordable?
Where does the basement go at night?
damn you!
40 miles out... maybe El Cahon? Escondidio? Valley Center? Poway? I used to live in SD a few years ago. Absolutely one of the most beautiful places on earth.
Getting warm.;-)
El Cajon is not a nice area anymore. Escondido is down right terrifying now in certain parts. Gang warfare at Palomar was common place when I worked there. Poway is still nice but oh so expensive! Our townhouse we sold there in 1990 is listed over 400k. Insane!
Miffed;-)
Minneapolis #3? That's not a surprise - that's where the welfare refugees from Detroit and Chicago seek asylum.
Everyone from there tried to 'get rich quick' on buying garbage properties and renting out to Sec. 8. The wanna-be millionaires found out that the Sec. 8 rent check always comes from .gov on time, but couldn't possibly keep up with the way the properties were trashed, unpaid utilities, insurance, the high taxes and the plummeting resale value. Brother-in-law does bankruptcies there and business is booming - mostly young, working locals that got caught up in the money-making scheme and are trying to hang on to their own house and car, never mind the garbage Sec. 8 properties they're trying to unload.
The unemployment rate has skyrocketed there among the middle class and the welfare slums keep expanding in the city and first-ring suburbs. Grew up there as a kid - use to be a nice place. Now? Detroit lite... The Syrian refugees wouldn't even want to go there, but I suspect many WILL be sent there. It's the home of some international refugee human trafficking organization that is always willing to ruin refugee's lives by bringing them to the dismal, frozen wellfare hell-hole slums there. Everyone in the rich suburbs still likes it, so it must have something going for it. Ice fishing?
Well-off relatives of mine moved from Minneapolis to SF Bay some 10-12 years ago. Bet they can't recognize their old stomping grounds anymore?
You would figure they would send all the refugees who come from hot places to warm/hot places like CA, AZ, and TX...
Only a gubbamin can be so deliberately stupid or evil to put hot coals in a freezer.
Dude... Minneapolis is now the single largest Somali resettlement area in the US!
Our "imports" at least work. Well, unless you get into Salinas, King City, Bakersfield, etc.
Don't forget Des Moines. I used to teach middle school as part of a grad school fellowship, and while dealing with a few kids who only knew some non-common African languages wasn't too ridiculous (the natives were too restless to teach anything anyway, and the refugees were actually more polite even if they couldn't understand you), my colleague over in Harding had to deal with two race wars. The first was between two groups of Asian refugees who had formed gangs, and among other things my colleague caught a kid carrying a logging chain that was meant for someone's head. The second case involved some African American boys beating up a Sudanese boy because "Your great grandpa sold my great grandpa into slavery!" The Sudanese refugee who was their translator asked me how on Earth African American kids would get such idiotic ideas into their head, but it also turned out the victim was a Sudanese child veteran and he decided to reform his home militia with his other veteran friends.
Yeah, that was Harding Middle School in Des Moines. Can someone tell me how it is "helping" to destabilize someone's country, then bring them into a country where they don't know the language, can't find a job, and only get a pittance of support. I know why the elites would want it, but how does the average useful idiot rationalize this? Maybe they're just accepting it with no further thought?
Maybe Merkel will have an answer for you in a couple of years.
Miffed
Maybe Germans will wake up and end her career.
That is on the cards for 2015 but has hit a snag. The Bilderberg designated successor Ursula von der Leyen looks like having cheated in her doctorate. That's a hanging offence but all good things come in threes. 2 cheaters had to depart from Cabinet a little while ago.
techpreist - On one had, I have to agree with you. On the other hand, I had to hear damn near the same kind of difficulties that the Polish, Ukrainian, Russain, German, etc., had when my grandparents moved to Minneapolis just before the depression. Despite the inevitable joblesness, poverty and crime that come along with almost every economic immigrant wave to the U.S., there's also good people. My grandparents had NOTHING to offer the U.S. but strong backs. I don't think they ever learned anything but the most basic English before they died.
Evey one of those immigrant groups moved into their own little enclaves and scraped by the best they could. And the people already settled here hated the cabbage-smelling, non-english-speaking newcomers. Granted the aid programs are far more exstensive today, but not all Hmong and Somoli (and maybe unfortunate Syrian) immigrants are lazy moochers. And of course they breed like rats - my grandmother had 12 kids after she moved here. I don't even know how that's possible.
Does that mean the refugee advocates should keep stuffing more in an overburdened community? Of course not. Aid agencies should not turn into human traficking do-gooders for their own self-satisfaction. THAT is another unfortunate manifestation of psychopathy. Minneapolis has something like 50,000 Somalians today and has to put new immigrants in the city's homeless shelters. Still, here's what the director says about 'the Somalians':
I've heard the same about many of the Hmong immigrants in St. Paul - hard working farmers that just want to save up enough for a little farm southwest of the Twin Cities. Kind of reminds me of the Rojava Kurds - scratch farmers that have no aversion to hard work and don't want their kids dodging mortar rounds all day.
While I'm glad for them, what is the upper limit of Minneapolis' ability to absorb more Somalis? How many Syrian familes will charitable organizations stuff into homeless shelters and 'assist' in filling out welfare paperwork? Worse yet, when those middle-class Minnneapolis people get laid off their job and lose their homes, the homeless shelters will have to turn them away, "Sorry - we're full of Somalis and Syrians. Try Des Moines..."
Paveway IV: "Aid agencies should not turn into human traficking do-gooders for their own self-satisfaction."
Those aid agencies aren't doing it for any kind of higher purpose. They are doing it for profit. There are nine refugee resettlement contractor organizations masquerading as charities. (See http://www.acf.hhs.gov/programs/orr/resource/voluntary-agencies. Also see Refugee Resettlement Watch (https://refugeeresettlementwatch.wordpress.com/) for ongoing reporting about the refugee scam.)
The more refugees these so-called charities dump in your communities, the more money they make. They don't give a damn about what it does to your community, what it costs you in additional taxes to support the refugees, and how many of your daughters get raped by the refugees.
Forward (over the cliff)!
Well Techpreist, a long time ago we could assimilate immigrants into our society because we had standards that we expected everyone to abide by. My ancestors who came of Ireland, Sweden, England and Scotland were expected to learn English and adapt to this society. They were not given all of their information in Gaelic, Swedish or any other languages or "accomodated" in any other way. Also, poor deportment and ill manners were not tolerated in school. In fact, if a youth was caught trying to start a fight with another, he would be punished. Too bad FDR and his barcolounger wife, Eleanor, got elected and set in motion the events that are destroying Amerika!
Dude they're sending Somalis to a town called Lewiston, ME.
MAINE of all places! Talk about forced integration.
Looks like those lumberjacks & lobstermen are going to get a first-hand look at the consequences of die-versity. Lets just hope it doesn't happen to their wives and daughters first.
Jesus Christ Monkeyballs. From knukles' post on downards, I have no words... this is madness. A bunch of equatorial plain-dwelling [muslim?] Africans resettled alongside Northern snow-dwelling Americans... in Maine.
I guess we're just forced to watch as they play Tetris with the world and its people? Fuck.
That sounds remarkably correct.
Place all of the people in the right places, and they all disappear!
Trashing the house is what Section 8'ers do as a hobby. My neighbor bought two houses and both were rented to these people. One had over $18,000 in damages (house was bought for $138k) and the other over $22,000 and this does not include the costs to evict them as well as the threats from one of them to kill him if he did not back down.
The NAR and media folks have given such a distorted view of the RE market it's incredible.
the billionaire genious donald sterling didnt rent to blacks, lesson learned.
Worked with someone whose whole family was section 8.
Bought houses at auction with a credit card.
No vandalism if it's kin.
Checks like clockwork...
orange?
I wish every one who rents section 8 every financial hit they get !!!!! People live in certain neighborhoods to get away from ghetto shit. And then sorry mutherfuckers bring the ghetto to nice neighborhoods !!!!! Section 8 has raised rent to unheard of levels in small towns. The days of 450 a month 2 bedroom houses in small towns is way over as long as hud is around !!!
not every sec 8 is bad my best tenant was sec 8. Also my worst. 3K damage was my worst hit. The country is backwards as i was happy to rent to my last tenant, a single mom of 2 with no job. .GOV paid every dime of rent. Crazy.
I owned rentals in Mpls./Saint Paul for a dozen years. and yes our properties got trashed by section 8 tenants.
Individually landlords would call Sec.8 to complain only to be told "tough shit".
We then got together and around 150 landlords agreed to stop accepting sec. 8 tenants.
Took about a month of tenants being told "no sec. 8" on bldgs. listed as such.
Almost all of us got a call asking why. We told them. They sent us a form asking us to itemise damages and they paid us and assured us they would cover future damages and they did.
In my county we got a different story. They wanted to build some "low income" apartment complex subsidized by the state. Before the zoning hearing somebody passed out fliers alerting homeowners to the usually non-challant event where maybe 5 people would ordinarily show up.
Well that individual got 400 of us out of our houses and into the library in order to curse out our local representatives. It worked, and the zoning never got approved.
I'm sure in a couple years they'll try to ram it through when we're all off guard. But hey, activism works. We need to get off our collective butts is all. Start LOCALLY.
Wish to see others spared the depradations of the so called "liberal" agenda is not bad.
No, El Vaquero, you are a very bad person, there is a difference.
And you had to click on the link to see what the city was. More and more I am seeing clickbait headlines and previews on ZH that don't actually tell you what the post is about.
Got a call from a sibling about 3 years ago complaining that her property taxes went from 10k/yr to 20k/yr overnight. This person is your typical liberal, white guilt type who defends anything from Obamacare to Jon Corzine. I can't wait to hear that it doubled again. That will be about it for that part of town. How do you sell an average type house with a 30k tax bill associated with it? I sense the air being let out of Real Estate prices as I sit.
It's like people who push for paying teachers more. I've been through my state's budget. Something like 30% of it goes towards teacher's salaries already, and in my state, they don't make that much compared to some other states. That's also with all of the federal subsidies and other sources of income into the school system. Trying to explain to someone that, if you want to increase teacher salaries, you're going to have to take the resources from somebody else leads to the "well, education will never get improved with that attitude" response. The higher property taxes come from that kind of magical thinking. "But it's for the children! And anything is possible if we put our minds to it!" Guess what, they're not going to take those resources from the state police or the state parks. They're going to take them from you.
I cringe when they annouce a new school being built. Means taxes going up alot again!
The nicest city owned buildings in my area are the newly built schools and the Metro Courthouse. They made expensive architecture decisions for purely aesthetic reasons, and the tax payers footed the bill. Then again, most of the people who enter the Metro Courthouse probably don't snap about that.
Not just Breaking Badville, every new dot gov building in every podunk town (they're all podunk towns) are the nicest biggest cost-is-no-concern construction projects they've seen in decades. Big daddies gotta keep up appearances.
the development fee's in riverside county ca. are $23k to build a house or put a mobile on a bare lot. that is not permit fees. those are more. the development fees are my share of money already spent, mostly on stuff I derive no benefit from. and taxes have gone up in the last few years as well. although my property is actually worth less than a time when the taxes were less.
The nicest and newest buildings in my town are the BANKS. Go figure....
-1 for not getting it. Nowhere did I mention taxes.
The chart in the article is home prices ... and since you haven't been paying attention: some real properties went for $1 in Detroit a while back. Granted, they are probably just concrete pads by now.
Yeah - and New York - where a 100 million dollar 5000 square foot condo is now being sold for a still insane 75 million dollars represents a 25% drop. Big fucking deal - it was insane to start with and is insane now. However - I'm pretty sure that Chicago would still make the list. If only because Obama and Holder are from there, and anything they touch turns to shit.
The single biggest anomaly in my opinion remains Houston. Crushing oil prices, and the entire real estate market is still blazing forward as if $100 per/barrel oil is a forgone conclusion and right around the corner.
Perhaps it's that the influx of imigrants is so high, and they are so optimistic, that they have no concept of a downturn...because they've never seen one.
I think you are seeing growth in the likes of Texas and Arizona from those fleeing California and your Chicagos, Detroits, etc. What really surprises me is that Cleveland is seeing increases. Doesn't make sense with what I've heard about that city being a dying city,
Never seen one? You should've been around Houston from 1986-1988. Made Detroit look like Disneyland.
I was in Louisiana going to college during that time. my Roomate came back from visiting home in Southwest LA, and said "everything has closed up".
I visited a relative in Houston this summer and they are building apartments like crazy. Both luxury ones as well as crappy wooden boxes that will mold away in their humidity. Many of his engineering friends got fired in the energy layoffs and are drifting sideways or moving out for jobs so I don't know who is moving into Houston? Add in the high cancer rate on Houston's East Side from refineries and it's an enigma.
Although, I have read banks are tightening up on loans to RE developers and energy companies there. They sense it's going to get worse which seems pretty clear to me.
Ahh, so they're still riding the residual loan bubble.
Makes sense. Wonder how Williston, North Dakota is holding up.
"high cancer rate on Houston's East Side from refineries"
any good sources on that ? would be appreciated
I was the office administrator for a real estate company in Houston in 1988. I compiled all the foreclosures from all the local banks into one document on DBaseII on an at the time smokin' fast 386. When I entered the last one and told it to sort, it took 7 hours before it began to print. The document as big as an old-fashioned family bible.
There were 2 bedroom, 2 bath condos in really nice parts of town going for $5000, and a 4 bedroom house in Houston Heights going for $5500. I didn't have quite enough cash to buy things at the time, and I've always regretted it.
that will be coming to many locations soon.
I bet you're no fun at parties, right?
Condo development in select enclaves makes America keep ticking until is doesn't anymore.
tick, tick, tick, tick, boom!
Immigration has a lot to do with it. I live in the great northwest, and this mutherfucker is blowing and goin' !!!!!! we came here in 2013 and our property is worth double what we paid for it. One thing about houston, is it is like a bullseye, only the ring is worth livin in !!!!!!!!! thats where the boom is !!!!!!! houston has no zoning laws, so you can have bar, church, house, brothel, one after another next to each other. Quite an eyesore, but probably has been good for small business owners !!!!!
Well, the guy in that house doesn't have to go far to get drunk, fucked then saved.
Vote from rooftops.
Chicago has two major downsides...
1. Corrupt Politicians
2. South/West-side gang bangers
Positive note:
Good people mostly
Great Food
Good city for arts...
Go BEARS!
My niece lives in Chicago, owns a home and loves Obama and Tiny Dancer. Too bad she's queer, she might have enjoyed the fucking she's about to get.
FORWARD CHICAGO SOVIET!
They should Tar & Feather the ballerina as well.
Tinkerbelle Rahm likes to blame Daley but he would've done the same thing just like Obama blaming Bush while continuing raping and plundering the ME
Dual Shitizenism at its finest.
Israel? FUCK YEAH!
Chicago was the cocaine hub of the U.S. Wait, dealers don't pay taxes.
Don't forget the heroin highway.
The entire USA to Naperville to Independence Ave. on the West Side.
I always thought that road went to Aurora?
They don't call it Chicongo for nothing.
Billion, not trillion. Still plenty big
Yep, and I can hardly wait for them to go full retard.....
Chicago, Deathtroit and Baltigimmeemore are all run by long entrenched progressive liberal democraps...
You've got it backwards. They all have poor populations, and why in the heck would a poor person vote for a party that could care less if they live or die?
Maybe because they like the idea of city streets being a live range.

When is METRA going to armor the trains to the burbs for the run through the gaunlet?
Never been a need to armor trains. Worst we've had has been rocks and graffiti.
To date.
"...run through the gaunlet?"
The Greenline?
"Poor populations"
"Just call em niggers. Just call them niggers."
Go back a few decades and these cities were doing great -
It is the progressives that turn prosperity to poverty - it takes some time / doesn't happen overnight but it always will happen.
You take from those that produce to give to those that don't and you drive the productive folks away and all you are left with is a bunch of lazy fucks.
Poor people don't vote in Chicago....dead people do.
could it possibly be that a they all love playing Santa ...with everyone else's money??? Nah, that couldn't be it....
Just another sad lesson showing how those that produce nothing can only suck off the teet of those that produce for so long before the producers just flee in droves. If both Chicago and Detroit going down in flames isn't enough of a lesson for the idiots, nothing will be.
All due respect sir, you misspelled Chiraq
... it's Chitcago. Sounds like sscChitcago.
all those paper gains in housing being eaten by the very real(estate) tax man in Broketown and he don't take IOU's or "hey, look, I'm, good for it, Zillow says so"
Youa actually believe this has something to do with it? The most successful cities have the greatest income equality...hands down.
Like sacre pimento ?

Just another casualty of the Commodity collapse.

just one more reason why I love to fly into Midway! what a fucking rockstar airport and neighborhood that is!
There's never been a better time or place to buy a home and get ass-raped with taxes.™
Renters get ass raped by the same property taxes.
Just another reason not to live there. It's a damned shame, too.
I've known people who've lived all over the US and Canada, and downtown Chicago used to be high on their list.
I was born there. It WAS a great city but you always knew the bullshit was going to catch up
Back when i lived in the area, Chicago paid out (around 1999-2001) 13Billion dollars a year for workers compensation because of things like bus drivers were traumatized when they hit the bumper of a car during an accident and needed 6 months of therapy. I am not kidding, this was directly from their data.
Sounds a lot like Louisiana.
Any car wreck there, even the most minor, results in lawsuits, chiropracters, therapy, loss of consortium, all sorts of shit.
Attornies get rich on PI cases.
Who paid you ask?
I;ll explain: When I lived there, car insurance cost me $240 per monty: full coverage on 2 newer cars, liability on an old pickup and liability on a dual sport motorcycle.
Moved to NC, kept the same insurance provider. new premium upon relocation: $90 per month.
Just like that. Same cars, same insurance company, same drivers.
The lawsuit lottery is alive and well down there.
when I was a kid the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry was one of the best in the world--rivaling the Smithsonian. Maybe it still is?

Still a beautiful place. 'cept when overrun by the little blackies run amuck.
The U505 is still one of my favs exhibits.

One of five German WWII submarines in the world still in one piece and on display.
But can you walk there without experiencing black mob violence? The wonders of diversity?
Just wait until the public pensions in Chicago collapse.
Soon..........soon
"Just wait until the public pensions in Chicago collapse."
Yep. Then an ObamaJudge will set local income tax rates to 150% of income to pay what was "promised."

Good thing that guns are illegal in Chicago. These must have all been vehicular homicides. That, chokings, and sucker punches.. But not by gun.
Must have been Paki convenience store clerks attacking gentle giant customers with their throats.
Those Pakis know lethal secret asian attack tactics like that sort of throat thing and use it on unsuspecting 6'4", 245 Lb people who walk in and simpy want to borrow some stuff from the store.
Guns don't kill people, niggers do.
We need nigger control.

Six people were killed and at least eight people were wounded, including an 11-month-old boy and a 2-year-old boy, during a bloody start to the week in Chicago that saw 10 of the victims shot at two scenes less than 3 miles apart on the South Side.

Has Rahm ever considered making guns, and murder, illegal in Chicago?
Oh, wait.
Never mind...
southside chicago is the only place I consider stop signs to be truely optional.
It's the baddest part of town. And if you go down there, you'd better best beware of a man named Leroy Brown.
Ten-year-old among 57 shot, 4 dead, over bloody weekend in Chicago
Tue Sep 29 05:01:02 EDT 2015
Ten-year-old Melanie Irving ran for her life Sunday afternoon when about six gunshots rang out in Chicago's Woodlawn neighborhood as she walked to her grandmother's apartment. Suddenly, she cried out as she felt a burning sensation while scampering to a nearby church for refuge. Melanie had been struck on the right side of her neck, but luckily it was a graze wound. "I touched it and then there was blood," a soft-spoken and shy Melanie said Monday after she briefly tapped the gauze
One way or another, they are going to get medieval trying to make good on the fairy tale they have sold to public employees. The backlash on both sides is going to be epic.
...which will result in frequent thunderstorms, accompanied by rapid bouts of Jewish lightning.
I had a relative who had a retired Chicago fireman who was not a chief but up there. His wife was crazy and so was he. Everyone on the street hated them. They had signs that you could not walk on the sidewalk by their house. They constantly started problems with neighbors. Pure evil.
I hope his pension blows up.
Let me guess: And he retired at age 50 with a $125,000 per year pension (cost of living adjusted, of course) and free healthcare.
Bonus, he can still loot taxpayers after he retires.
50!? He probably started when he was 20 and retired at 40-45.
what is funny is even the pensioners won't live there, they all move out and suck off the public trough spending somewhere else
