Saw a lot of this at the NATO protest

I shut up while all of you cheered the CPD, but I've had enough. This person posted a photo of a protester with a peace sign, and you found a way to disagree with what he was posting, simply because he chose to show protesters in a positive light.

The violence that happened last week was the work of the CPD. Every major injury happened as a result of of the CPD. Every first swing of their god damn bats happened with little to no provocation. Can you name one injured chicago cop? I can name a few innocent demonstrators who were bloodied at the hands of the cops.

A god damn police van drove through a group of people, and you still found a way to justify it! The same shit happened in Egypt last year, and you abhorred the actions of their government!

You may be perfectly happy with the state of your city, state, country, and world, but that is no reason to ignore blatant misuse of force & authority. You may not agree with (or understand) our beliefs, but that is no justification for supporting the force of hundreds of well-protected & armed police officers.

With that being said, this subreddit was a lot better off before all of you bourgeoisie, Mass-Media Mirroring assholes started filling this place up with all of your uneducated, pig loving bullshit.

Here's a picture of some cops working really hard at about 6:10pm

There really isn't a lot of good content in there anymore.

Fucking right it is. Reading the subreddit has been driving me nuts. It's like they're all echoing the same garbage the state media has been filling the airwaves with.

Reddit's never made me mad before, but to see my fellow residents spouting all of this cop-loving shit just infuriates me.

Those assholes even downvoted you for pointing out that Wednesday's march was a fuck the police march. They didn't consider for a moment that the march was specifically about the police.

Why are people calling this a bridgeport march? It started at 51st and ended on Taylor street. It passed through washington park, canaryville, back of the years, bridgeport, pilsen, university village, and the southwest loop before ending.

Second, this was an anti-police march. It was probably organized by a few anti-capitalist people, but that was not the purpose of the march.

I think you were just downvoted for the whole "ftp" thing, but this is what the protest was about.

All but 5 dates in my life have been found on okcupid. One was found on fetlife, another myspace (circa 2003), another a friend's sister's roommate, a few others were found on craigslist.

I think okcupid landed me like 30 dates over the course of 4 years, maybe 5 of which lead to relatively long-term relationships. Relative for me, a guy that didn't start dating until he was 24.

There are people out there who will fap to videos of people shitting into the mouths of other people. Considering the vast number of fetishes that exist out there, I don't consider jerry's actions to be that out of the ordinary.

I am currently 28 years old, and live in chicago, but from ages 2 to 23, I lived in a trailer park located in a small town called Oxford, Michigan. Oxford is located about 52 minutes north of Detroit, which was the so-called stomping ground of insane clown posse.

Around 7th grade, I made friends with a few kids who lived in other sections of the trailer park. I did have 3 friends who lived on my block, but they were all older than me, and had moved up into the ranks of high school where everyone is too cool to live with middle schoolers. My new best friend was a kid named Jerry, who had since 5th or 6th grade been listening to ICP. Jerry was my age, overweight like me, white like me, and came from a poverty-stricken family just like me. In addition to that, he and his friends on the other side of the park also enjoyed backyard wrestling. My normal friends also enjoyed backyard wrestling, however the big difference between jerry's crew and my crew were that jerry's crew liked WCW, whereas mine liked WWF (now wwe). We were each fond of ECW (slightly more underground / hyper-violent).

Long/Pointless story short, jerry and friends enjoyed ICP / Being Juggalos because they felt that ICP & the juggalo community embraced their way of life, and that they had something in common with the community. In those days, there weren't a lot of musicians that they thought they could relate to, and ICP seemed to be synonymous with being overweight, poor, potentially obscene, and well, they basically celebrated being as gross as possible.

They couldn't stick with country music because the genre is too moral, and they couldn't stick with ted nugent because he wasn't producing music anymore. Though, a lot of the community did like rock bands like metallica, among others. A lot of the kids also embraced korn, limp bizkit, and all of those other bands that were on the Family Values tour.

In short, they liked ICP/Juggalos because they were overweight white trash. They did like other rap music, but felt like trying to assimilate themselves into the black community would be pushing it, additionally the small town I lived in had less than 30 black people, most of which didn't even care for rap music.

Raffi torres violated 3 different nhl rules on this hit, and has been fined or suspended 5 separate times for acts just like this one. Additionally, all nhl players know that checks directed towards the head of another player are a major violation.

Absolutely. He has a long history of this kind of shit, and it's clear that he is mainly put on the ice for this purpose.

Every time I've done something in the loop, it's been during the afternoon.

Something I've learned about people from outside chicago is that they refer to all parts of chicago as "downtown", whereas people from chicago refer to 'the loop' as the only 'downtown' in chicago.

If you are planning to live in the loop, you'll definitely want to reconsider, as there isn't really anything to do there, and you'll have a much better time living in one of our many neighborhoods, such as logan square, bridgeport, lakeview, roscoe village, ukranian village, uptown, rogers park, pilsen, or some other area. Just be careful, and research areas before you jump in.

I live on a one way street, and I've actually seen drivers pull up to the corner of my street, and drive down the street in reverse to get to their destination.
