Whew, the 24th District police (Chicago) have their work cut out for them! They are now, apparently, cracking down hard on bicyclists (over 13 years old) who ride on the sidewalks of Rogers Park.The police just did a brilliant chase-down of a bicyclist last night. As the cops are reported to have said to the heinous offender, he was putting people in "grave danger."
Ah, but the "grave danger" continues! Today, right now, I see many cyclists over the age of 13 on the sidewalk of Morse Avenue. Where are the police? Why are they not stopping this imminent, grave danger? Of course, there is another way to look at all of this: Crime in Chicago and the 49th Ward is now, I guess, so low that the most serious thing the police have to worry about is bicyclists.
