My Crime of Town, Chicago Is

Instapundit linked to this outrageous story: "Chicago: Where Criminals No Longer Fear the Police. What level of depravity has a city reached when a uniformed police officer is no safer from a street robbery than anyone else?" and "Illinois Governor Pat Quinn has announced the formation of a new Anti-Violence Commission, the very thought of which will surely cause even the most debased Chicago hoodlum to change his ways and start attending novenas down at Holy Name Cathedral. Pity the good people of Chicago. The thugs give them dead bodies, the governor gives them commissions." Is it now politically incorrect to go after criminals? What are they afraid of?
