Montrose Harbor.
I go there in June and July, on the weekends, and I fish. I bring my cup of coffee, and watch a beautiful sunrise. I relax, drink my coffee, and enjoy 3-4 hours of peace. Just myself, my thoughts, and my fishing gear. For 15 years or so this has been my "little escape". Well, last Sunday I wasn't able to go there early morning, so I decided to go there around 6pm for the late night fish.

This is what I encountered.

What a fucking disaster.
The city of Chicago is just turning to shit.
2 weeks ago at that same harbor 2 ladies were shot.
2 years ago some ignorant fuck walked up to a fisherman, and for shits and giggles, decided to push that fisherman in the water. Well, that fisherman drowned.

I guess it may be time to find another place to get 3-4 hours of peace.

Take me piece by piece.....
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....

    The city of Chicago is a fucking war zone.
    And its everywhere. Not just the gangbangers. The crime and violence is everywhere.

    When did people truly just stop giving a fuck?

    There are a few videos that people took of the nonsense.
    Crazy shit. What the fuck would provoke some 19 yr old and 22 yr old kid, to throw beer bottles at a police officer? I hope those 2 assholes get 5 years in prison.

    These punks showed up at the lakefront, got piss drunk, left a few thousand pounds of garbage behind, and decided to throw beer bottles at police?

    Real fucking nice.

    Yeah, I saw some of those vidoes. Disturbing shit.

    The biggest problem in Chicago seems to be that none of these assholes seem to fear or respect the police anymore. Seems to be getting worse and worse with no end in sight.

    Good question, Speedy. Also, WTF would provoke some kid to punch a complete stranger, (me) totally unprovoked, in the back of the head, threaten to kill his wife, and attempt to break their car window. This bullshit has to stop.

    No respect for authority anywhere anymore. One of the many reasons I run to the mountains during the summer. Had enough of the big city life.
    So, What you Giving ?........ (Thanks Speedy, Alesek, & Arq+friends)
    What You Giving

    I suggest you step out on your Porch.
    Run away my son. See it all. Oh, See the World!
