The 18-year-old woman was found bloodied and naked on a residential sidewalk after being attacked by as many as six men, just a short walk from the Congress Theater in Chicago’s Logan Square neighborhood.

I have two comments to make regarding this, which I heard first thing at 5:30 this morning on the news.
1- This is less than two blocks from my apartment. Anyone who has given me shit over the past few days when I expressed discomfort in walking home after work alone should possibly reconsider how crazy it is of me to be concerned.
2- How the FUCK, on a street FULL OF PEOPLE, does a young girl manage to “willingly leave” with SIX FUCKING STRANGE MEN INTO AN ALLEYWAY, is then raped and beaten without a single person noticing?? Especially when one person apparently WATCHED HER WALK INTO THE ALLEY.
I guess it’s no one else’s business. I guess maybe the ones to blame here are the parents who allow their 18 year old daughters to go hang out alone (I mean, where the fuck were this girl’s friends, right??) on NYE in the city? I don’t know. I don’t know. All I fucking know is that I have a hard time understanding how six people thought it was a good idea. Six fucking people thought that tricking a girl into an alley, raping her repeatedly, and then beating her was a GOOD FUCKING IDEA.
I’m really upset. I’ve been upset all morning. My class starts in an hour and all I can focus on is this, along with a few other choice headliners from the news this morning.
I don’t even know. I’m sad.
