Sometime last fall the local alderman made a big show of condemning this liquor store.He used words like racist and preying on the community. While this visible battle against demon rum gained him political points, the invisible tells a diffrent story.Currently this "evil" establishment enjoys a dusk till dawn armed guard courtesy of the CPD. While the apearance is a constant monitoring of the business the effect is to give the establishment a safe secure environment. The patrons now come from far and wide to one of the last remaining 4 o'clock carry out joints in the city ,with the added benefit of the customers are secure in the knowledge that the security will keep them from being robbed, panhandled, or victim of assault. I really am curious as to how much his business has picked up since this constant police presence.I am even more curious how it came about and why.It used to be when you drove by, there would be a couple of layabouts here during the later hours, but since security has been added the flow has shown a marked increase. Now far be it from me to impugn the character of any Chicago politician but this protection was directed shortly after the alderman was shagged out of the back room of said establishment by a PO writing the illegally parked cars in bus stop in front of it.The alderman came out to let the copper know it was his car that was illegally parked. Does this make you say hmmmmm?alderman +backroom+police security assigned=????
