projectpat72988 08/30/21 3:09:56 AM #33:	So far this year in Chicago 522 shot and killed 2514 wounded by gunfire. 3036 total people shot 550 homicides. Obviously these aren't marksmen.

The convention center was near the waterfront, and that area is pretty nice. There's a big ass Barnes and Noble in an old firehouse, a pretty cool science building (or was it an aquarium) that lets you chill on this nifty rooftop lounge, and a banging pizza shop called Isabella's.

I go into Chicago multiple times a week for work and have been for years. As people have said as long as you are avoiding the problematic territories everything is fine. You are buying into BS. It's a beautiful place. But I'm guessing most of the people here saying otherwise never really leave their houses anyway to understand what places are actually like.

I went on a trip to Detroit years ago, and after hearing people shit all over it i went into it kind of apprehensive. I wound up loving it. Every Detroiter i met was super nice.
