Prosecuting Chicago’s Gangs – Chicago Contrarian

"Today, however, a prevalent ideology — progressivism — dictates whether an individual is charged and placed on trial. A doctrine which demands why a crime was committed rather than who committed a crime, its practitioners have spent the last decade dialing back criminal prosecutions and framed the non-prosecution of crime as police tending to direct attention only to minorities. Though an utter falsehood, the results of non-prosecution have wrought disaster for Chicago, and nowhere have the city’s progressive leaders failed more significantly than in the prosecution of gang crime."
