On the southern side of Chicago, a few people seemed to prepare for President Donald Trump’s forces.

But many here will tell you about another battle – one for the lives of young people.

We traveled across the reputable neighborhoods of violent crime levels. In one of them, Bronziville, we went to the place where seven people were shot and wounded in an attack from a car to drive last week.

It was a mass of Chicago Police for the headquarters. The victims were among at least 58 people, eight people, eight killers, across the city during the Labor Day at the weekend.

Rob White, a young coach who tries to reversing their chip into gangs, told us: “You can imagine how the residents feel with this [stuff] It happens directly under their nose, “in reference to the attack near the giant -giant police building.

On Friday, Trump said he decided in another American city where he planned to deploy the National Guard forces while he said it would be an attempt to help fight crime – without revealing the site.

But the colleague of Mr. White, Kanoya Ali, faced Trump’s assertion.

“The result [a drop in crime] Mr. Ali said: “The forces are already here. We are the forces.”

Trump was martyred in the numbers of the Crime of Workers’ Day earlier this week as part of his threat to Chicago. He told reporters that the National Guard would “go” to address what he called a crime “out of control.”

This was followed by similar moves recently in Los Angeles and Washington, DC. In Chicago, the city authorities and state authorities managed by the Democrats pledged to resist publishing by Illinois Governor JB Pritzker as “unspecified” president.

In fact, the violent crime in Chicago has decreased significantly over the past two years.

Between January and June, the killing rate decreased by a third compared to the same period last year, according to the Criminal Justice Council.

But the total levels of Chicago are still much higher than the average of many American cities.

Supervisor Larry Senning, who heads the force of the Chicago Police Department, told us that killings decreased by 125 last year, as the shooting victims decreased by more than 700.

“The National Guard does not have the powers of the police. They do not have the powers of arrest,” he said.

“There must be some dangerous coordination between the Police Department and the National Guard … if I can get more officers, [I’d] Mr. Snelling added.

Rob White, wearing a black Hodia and a hat, stands next to the semester table where six other men sit. Many of them raise their hands.

In a temporary semester, Mr. White, the coach, was launched in an unusual Soliloquy. He sits around the table of what young men, and all the participants in Chicago Kerus, is not a profitable with the aim of reducing armed violence.

Mr. White asked about the hands of the hands: “How many of you went to the joint or going to the province?” Several hands went up.

“Keep your hand if it is shot.” More hands.

After that, we discussed the president’s proposal to deploy the forces.

“Getting the militia will not be the answer to this problem, right?” Mr. White said.

He also pointed to the financing discounts provided by the Trump administration to the crime prevention programs in Chicago and other places.

It is now a sharp complaint by Democrats who manage the city, saying that financing programs targeting weapons trafficking from states with the most flexible arms laws from Illinois was decisive in regulating the rise of violent crime.

Trump had previously defended federal funding discounts for projects similar to crime prevention, accusing the cities of the “radical left” or “woke up” to criminal justice policies.

The lines became blatant when we crossed another neighborhood, Canarville.

Tom Stac, a local population, says he “cannot wait” until Trump’s forces arrive

Hanging from the walls of the sit -in separating the promoters, stars and lines, mixed with the flames of the Blue -supporting campaign.

Here, Trump’s military threat was a third American city.

“I can’t wait until they arrive here,” said Tom Stack, 68, as he shouted across the street from us.

“You must get rid of criminals. This city is crazy, there is a lot of crime, it is logical,” he said.
