The story of why they won't stop shooting in Chicago :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Metro & Tri-State
Very troubling story about the street violence in our City. The law - abiding citizens of Chicago (in ALL parts of the City) deserve a better quality of life than this!

At Edgewater Library, No Relief
If you are in search of a cooling facility to escape the summer heat, DO NOT go to the Edgewater Public Library, unless, you like to sweat. Air conditioning is, virtually, non - existent. They often turn on fans that, simply, do not do the job of good ol' AC.

Pigeon Massacre
This morning, I observed several dead pigeons underneath the Metra underpass, at West Granville and North Ravenswood (6200 N. & 1800 W.). Don't know how they met their demise but, there were babies covered in down as well as adult birds. Most of the dead pigeons were on the street at Granville; inevitably, they had been flattened by passing cars. Perhaps they were poisoned or shot before they ended up on the road.

CTA WORKERS & RIDERS, TAKE NOTE!
On Wednesday, 30th June, 2010, at 2:00 P.M., I boarded a CTA bus at North Broadway and Ridge, in the city's Edgewater area. As the bus pulled out from the Clark and Ridge stop, I pulled the cord to signal to the driver that I wanted to exit the bus at the next stop. HE REFUSED TO STOP! In fact, the asshole passed two bus stops before he FINALLY stopped and allowed myself, and two other passengers, to exit the bus. I stood at the rear exit and yelled at him to stop and let me off but, as I said, the prick refused!
After recently increasing fares, eliminating routes and reducing the number of buses on the streets, the CTA , and the vermin on their workforce, need to treat its riding public better than this!
