Not Chicago. The Suburbs.
Wonder why he hasn't targeted San Fransisco or Oakland yet. Or Detroit. Or Birmingham, Miami....
"War Ravaged" Portland...? O heavens, someone tripped over a bicycle rack, someone else spray-painted Fuck ICE on the side of a Lowes where the amigos used to hang out near the abandoned, rusting hot dog and tamale stand. (Wait, sorry, I'm in San Diego, they add tamales, elote, takis, and clamatos to their hot dog stands.

Don't talk to me about "war torn" cities; Two months after the Rodney King riots when my employer was 6 months between shipyard contracts, I found myself working part time for MCI and drove by myself through Inglewood and Crenshaw areas to get to the site where they were doingTelecomm dial up and server installation.
Except for one guy, their regular LA crew was still too afraid to work in that area. The area looked really gnarly, but I never got hassled, because I was f'ing polite.
