Donald Trump was right when he wrote that Chicago crime is out of control.
Just yesterday, NBC Chicago reported on one man attacking three policemen at the scene of a traffic accident.
Three Chicago police officers were injured, one seriously, in an incident on Chicago's West Side Wednesday morning, according to police.
Around 10 a.m., officers in the 15th District were on patrol when they came across a traffic accident near the intersection of South Cicero Avenue and West Roosevelt Road, authorities said.
They approached the crash to see if anyone was injured and a male subject became combative and struck an officer, according to police.
Two other officers were injured while putting the offender in custody, officials said.
How many of those injuries were a result of officers' reluctance to use more force to make the arrest?
What are these people thinking, attacking a cop merely trying to see if anyone is hurt following a traffic accident?
It's not just slugging cops.
Last year, Chicago's 509 homicides represented 3.2% of America's homicides.
This year, so far, per HeyJackass.com:
Homcides for 2016 as of today: 574.
Total people shot in 2016 as of today: 3325.
To put that "total shot" into perspective, in 2013, only 2159 people were shot over the entire year.
Crime in general has skyrocketed as well.
I used to vacation on Michigan Ave. at Christmas. Never again.
