Chicagoisn'tsafe

Chicago isn't safe.  Armed robbery doesn't just happen in the "high crime" parts of Chicago because frankly, all of Chicago falls under the category of "high crime".  A lefty candidate for Illinois Attorney General learned this the hard way.  Three thugs in their early twenties approached Democrat candidate for Illinois Attorney General Aaron Goldstein and several of his campaign workers as they worked on a photo shoot in broad daylight.  

The hoodlums stole camera equipment, wallets, phones and other valuables from their victims.

The Tribune has the pathetic story.

A candidate running for Illinois attorney general was robbed at gunpoint while he was taking promotional photos for his campaign Thursday afternoon in the Northwest Side ward where he’s also the Democratic committeeman, according to his campaign manager and authorities.

Aaron Goldstein, 42, and several members of his campaign team were in the middle of taking publicity shots when the robbery happened, according to Goldstein’s campaign manager.

The robbery took place about 3:25 p.m. in the 4600 block of North Albany Avenue in Albany Park, when three men in their early 20s approached them, according to a law-enforcement source.

One of the men flashed a handgun and demanded the camera equipment and other personal belongings from the team, according to police.

Of course, not a one of them had a concealed carry piece with which to thwart the criminals, which could have easily shot one or more of their vics and left them for dead.

  1. The next thing you know this candidate will taking gun confiscation, but of course him being a democrat he'll never admit/understand that criminals will never give up their guns.

    Gun confiscation is shown to only work on the law abiding public.

  2. Even with this he will still pander to element, who conveniently was unable to be described by our fantastic local media.  Funny how they always describe them as just males if they are black, but will go into race and generic code for everyone else.  Spineless, useless media.

  3. He is as anti-gun and proactive at it as they come.
    He would be a disaster for us. Think Willis, think Harmon….

    There is some cynical speculation that it was staged, it was just too darn convenient.
