Giant Alligators Attack From Lake

Giant Alligators Attack From Lake

Is anyone else tired of the incessant polemics against Chicago?

Here’s something contrarian. Chicago is a great city and we have great reasons to live here. There’s a reason 3 million people choose to live where winters can get brutal. There’s a reason modern comedy was born where segregation and crime can be oppressive. There’s a reason business flourishes where the economics can be daunting. There’s a reason we have some of the best schools and medical facilities in the country. There’s a reason we have crazy sports fans even when our teams suck. Chicago spirit is real. We are different from the coastal cities and Chicagoans are different. I finally found something positive in the Trib--an ad, but still. Let’s take a minute to say we are proud of where we live.

I came here as an undergrad and came back after law school. In spite of terrible governance at the city, county, and state level Chicago is great and I don't want to live anywhere else. I pine for a time when it's true potential can be realized.

I love my city. Its as world class a city as any, but we are as nice as small town America. No other city can say that.
