      The mayor is an old white man, and Republican in case that had to be said. Even he’s saying the problem is way overblown, and walked around an apartment building where a recent incident happened by himself. Obviously I’m not a fan of the guy, but I’ll give him credit for that.

      Most of the latest stories came from a city councilwoman with a background in (checks notes) owning restaurants.

          Ah, gotcha. I live just barely outside of Aurora and do most of my shopping and stuff there, plus a good friend of mine is very involved in their politics, so it stands out a little more for me.

      Yes. The imaginary gang problem Republicans treat as real.

      Do you think Haitians are eating pets in Springfield too?
