Walking down to the Millennium park from the Union station takes approximately 22 minutes. Here is one of the Chicago PD parked vehicle I came across. In the States, the police I came across so far are quite friendly. Though, there are some reports of unpleasant attitudes by some especially to people of colour, but I have not experienced that. They are highly trained and professional. Vehicles like this do have high tech interior design. I could remember one encounter of driving with a friend and we were flagged down. The officer politely asked for the driver license and went to his car to do some cross checking. He returned to informed us that we were not suppose to drive that route in a certain hour of the day. We were not given a ticket but a warning after which he bade us farewell.

There are good people in Chicago, and it's a decent city in terms of infrastructure. However, it's a part of the Midwest. And offshoring hit their economy very hard. Much of the Midwest never recovered. News and oyinbos will always talk about the symptoms, but never the disease (e.g. private prison labor sl*very, systemic racism, and shipping entire industries overseas).
wow, this is enlightening thanks
Oyinbo media also makes it a point to show negative images of African/black people. There are many reasons for this, but one major reason is that the simple idea of happy, healthy black people living well infuriates oyinbos. It literally makes them angry to see black people not suffering or having something wrong with them.

Their media will also try to demonize random things, for example, if a bunch of teen oyinbos do a prank or get in a fight, it may never make it to media. But if black teens do something arguably far less harmless, they may try to paint it as some dangerous trend or crime.
