Yes, because with the proliferation of video surveillance, smart phones, search, purchase & GPS tracking, the crime rate should have plummeted more than under the Clinton administration, yet it has reversed over the past 21 years.This isn't accidental or the results of incompetence. It's intentional.
just another lazy sum bitch.This is why we have gun crime in the United States....democrat party controlled cities where the democrat prosecutors and judges release violent, dangerous criminals over and over again...
A man who has a history of attacking passers-by and transit workers allegedly stabbed a 66-year-old man five times near Union Station late last month. But he is only charged with one count of misdemeanor battery, even though a CPD report says the victim wanted to pursue felony charges.
The story was brought to our attention yesterday after we reported that a woman who only received misdemeanor probation for stabbing a CTA worker in the neck was arrested over the weekend when she allegedly brandished a knife and stole a purse from a wedding party in Millennium Park. She was only charged with misdemeanors. Again.

Chicago officers noted in their report that the victim specifically wanted to pursue felony charges against Hall.
But prosecutors did not approve any felonies.
Instead, Hall is charged only with one count of misdemeanor battery. He was released from the police station on his own recognizance the next afternoon, according to CPD records.
Hall has a history of random attacks.
In June, he was arrested after he allegedly assaulted a 39-year-old man near Lincoln Park Zoo, punched him in the face three times, then threw his phone into a nearby lagoon.
Police later considered pursuing hate crime charges against Hall, but officers could not reach the victim because his phone was in the lagoon, according to a CPD report.
Instead, Hall was charged with two misdemeanor counts. He walked out of the police station less than four hours after he was arrested, records show.
In 2019, Hall was sentenced to 45 months in prison for attacking a CTA bus driver without provocation near Union Station.
The driver told police he was returning from break and invited Hall to get onto his bus to take the #151. Hall put the driver into a headlock and tried to punch him in the face before taking him to the ground, a police report said. The CTA driver gained control of Hall until Amtrak police arrived to put him into custody.
The driver told police he had never seen Hall before in his life, and he had no idea why Hall attacked him.
Misdemeanors
Hall and the woman who received misdemeanor probation for stabbing a CTA worker in July aren’t the only people skating by with minor charges after police arrest them for violent attacks.
Earlier this month, 32-year-old Gary Coleman received eight months conditional discharge for misdemeanor battery three days after Coleman knocked a 60-year-old woman unconscious on a Loop sidewalk. No felony charges were ever filed. The sentence was handed down just three days after the attack.
After man is stabbed 5 times outside Union Station, the alleged attacker is only charged with one misdemeanor

They need more crime to justify their jobs, more surveillance & control over US.
This particular situation is directly attributable to the division of the American constituency. Once the core values of the American constituency, morality through constitutionally based INDIVIDUAL rights became lost into anarchy it was all over for the American empire(Pax Americana). This divide & conquer collapsing society phenomenon has brought all but 'one' of every past empire: from the Akkadian empire(1st empire) to the former USSR to total collapse. The lone exception was the Egyptian empire which lost its entire military in under an hour due to a freak natural disaster(fastest collapse of an empire in recorded history!).Yes, because with the proliferation of video surveillance, smart phones, search, purchase & GPS tracking, the crime rate should have plummeted more than under the Clinton administration, yet it has reversed over the past 21 years.
