Chicago's brilliant solution to violent teen takeovers? A curfew that criminals will surely respect! While teens organize mass gatherings that end in shootings and chaos, politicians waste time debating whether the curfew should be at 8PM or 10PM instead of addressing the root problems. Meanwhile, residents are told to stay locked in their homes while teens run wild through Streeterville. This episode exposes how ineffective 'geo-fencing' and temporary curfews are when there's zero accountability for parents or consequences for teens committing crimes. We break down the $millions wasted on police resources for these band-aid solutions while officials refuse to implement measures that actually work. Where are the parents in all this? Why is Chicago more concerned with ACLU approval than resident safety?
