We read this regarding the residential growth of the urban core in Chicago (read Loop) and lament the reality check omitted on skyrocketing crime and fact many young professionals feel unsafe in area.We never go in city from western suburbs because of expressway shootings on the way in.Many we know afraid to go into city because of violence that can happen anywhere, it is reported on an almost daily basis.This issue and the prevalent law and order and safety attitude that the police are ill equipped to handle skyrocketing crime and even when they do, Democratic State’s Attorney Public Enemy #1 Kim Foxx is more than lax in charging people properly and enforcing the law. The explosion of juveniles committing serious crimes is testimony to this failure as in Cook County they know they can get away stuff because of juvenile sentencing guidelines. It encourages the nefarious concept of a career in crime for many disenfranchised in THE HOODS. Chicago is grappling with that very issue as Mayoral election slated for 2/28
