      Honestly, this is great. If they fast track this shit it's gonna make getting a gun way easier and be easy as fuck to infiltrate and agitate. Imagine them arming thousands of people, giving them their personal addresses, then paying them $5/hr plus tip.

      Fucking hell, it's like they're asking to get shot.

    Imagine needing this app to tell you if people are safe instead of just using any other god damn method you use every single day to communicate. It either uses internet or cell service to communicate your status so you can either send a message, text, or call. Like for fucks sake even shit social media sites have check ins and safety features exactly like this that don't require giving information to some random company; at least those shitty sites already had your info, this is just paying to give it away.

    Is an edgy neighborhood where everyone has a MySpace account that looks like it’s from 2007 and has MCR blaring from the apartments

      If I'm not mistaken thats the green line lol. Depending on where this person is getting off, it could be "edgy" but thems the breaks when you encroach on the economically destitute.

    Why the fuck if you live in Chicago would your lie about why you're racist not be about gangs? Yuppie white people have gotten fucking terrible at "technically not racist" bs in the last couple years.

    If you really want to see economic juxtaposition, Chicago is the place to be. Yuppies casually walking around Humboldt Park while gangland proclivities occur just a couple of blocks south and west. It's a city of blocks in the truest sense of whatever that means. Nice refurbed homes and apartment buildings north of North, shuttered buildings and vacant lots south of North.

    The mixture of these two economic outlooks occurs when desperate dudes just do some petty theft. CPD is almost 100% hands off since the Laquan McDonald murder, so any police presence in this areas is all posturing, and the actual policing is almost always reactionary. Either harass the youngins on a off night, or only turn up once shit has gone down. Meanwhile yuppies start turning to shit like this to make sure their airpods aren't fucked around with.

    Depressing ass city.
