Where's Joe Moore? Wasn't Joe Moore going to hold city council hearings on what he calls the CTA "Third World Transit System?" Where's the outrage Joe Moore? Or was Joe Moore just lying to the public and hamming it up for the T.V. news cameras? Read more.

where joey??? Well since he (joey) is not running for his aldermen seat, there is no need to draw attention to his self, joey is like the groundhog he only sticks his head out from his hole once a year.
I rode the Red on my way home last night... at around 10:45. I left 6 trains go by before I hopped on one. There was no room, and my pudgy self wasn't going to try and make some.
A/M, having to wait out 6 overstuffed trains on the 4th of July says nothing one way or the other about the overall quality of CTA service.
Do you have any clue how many people have to be evacuated from downtown after the close of festivities on the 4th of July? The transit agencies and traffic people have to somehow find a way to move an ungodly number of people out of an area maybe 12 blocks square in a very short length of time- many more than show up for work every day.
I worked civil service in another, less-well managed city, St. Louis, and it was even worse in a place that was no way equipped to handle the evacuation of 1.2 million people- or over twice that city's population, out of downtown. I worked that melee once and swore NEVER AGAIN. At the end, the overexcited, overheated, over-liquored up crowd was beginning to re-enact the horrible denoument from DAY OF THE LOCUSTS- hundreds of thousands of overwrought people storming the buses, assaulting each other, and in general being a massive crowd control problem.
Don't blame CTA, blame the city boosters who promote this event and who think it's a grand idea to pack a number of people equal to the population of a medium-sized city into a 12-block area to bake in the sun and drink themselves into a blather. I don't know who first thought of all these mega-festivals in the downtown areas of our cities, but it's way out of hand, a recipe for disaster.
The only thing that these politicians will fund properly is their pensions.
man you guys are so down on Joe Moore but everytime i have called over to his office and asked for something to be done around my area it gets done.. i asked his office for a new street sign and BOOM we got it..in a very short time, then i called about a bunch of busted car glass all over the street and alley and BOOM the street sweeper (the machine) was out here the very next day. what's yer beef with da guy? i got nuthin bad to say.. seems like whatever he's doing.. he's doing a great job, at least in my PERSONAL experience. you bitch about crime so go stand over on the corners where the dealers are go organize a walk or something.. whats wrong with you? get off yer hind end too. he's ok so far in my book, i am not a buddy of his nor di i have any clout.so... what's you guys's bitch?
Hey, Plagam - Instead of bitching here on my blog, I got an better idea. You stand by the drug dealers or something.
yeah well gernhardt you desperately need to sober up. Let the people who came up here from Wicker Park and other areas where they gentrified them right out of their apartments,know the truth; that you are in cahoots with a bunch of the same kind of people who want to do the same thing up here. You don't care about this neighborhood, so knock off the BS.. all you care about making a big profit or getting your buds' a big profit on the land here. And you cannot stand that Joe Moore is for us renters. I am a hard working blue collar American and I am staying here. its the last bastion of affordable rental in Chicago, and you and yours ain't scaring anyone off with your lame videos and false accusations against business with legal licenses. this neighborhood has some rough spots, but you ain't trying to CHANGE nothing with your vids and trash talk.. you are just after Joe Moore cause he ain't down with you guys about getting rid of affordable housing and turning this area into another yuppified overpriced area. I ain't leaving and I am sick of your ftrickery and deceit and intend to get involved with CAPS and Joe Moore's office and fight your kind of crap, you are a liar and an instigator.and this "blog" is a propaganda rag to try to scare people and grab land. the blue collar folks are sick of you the managers of my building turned down your guys offer to get rehabbed and up rents to outrageous prices for just the STUDIO apartments.everyone in my building is a hard working soul and we ain't leaving. My friends go to CAPS and they know what time it is about you and yours and the agenda you guys are about.Crawl Back Gernhardt, us honest working people are not leaving. not without a helluva fight.
