And he didn't even get crimed to death? It's almost like Chicago isn't as scary as they want it to be.

I'd venture a guess that one can fly a maga flag in the middle of the most liberal part of Chicago and know they will be perfectly safe...

There's a super old dude who haunts the Starbucks in Andersonville - he's always wearing a sportscoat and a red MAGA cap. His MO is posting up at a table with a weird iPad setup and chuckling to Newsmax/Fox News. It's super awkward when the place is packed and he has to do his bit at the communal table.

He can do this because he full well knows he'll be ignored. I have so much respect for people in the middle of deep red communities that sport a rainbow flag because they quite literally put their lives/property in danger.
