You wrote "3. Talking about Chicago means having to explain why you aren't racist."
Your exact quote.
I'll say it again. You only bring up Chicago to distract. Republicans control the White House, and both houses of Congress. What have they done for Chicago? Trump said he'd end the violence in Chicago, pronto. What has he done>
As other people have said, there are numerous liberal cities with nowhere near the per capita crime rate of Chicago, but they don't fit your agenda.
You whine that people bring up racism to stifle debate, then you call me a racist.
You are NOT going to shut me up.
And quit using black people to score political points with.
