What the fuck is a "tourist" doing walking "his dog" in that area?
Do we give free entry to foreign pets to this country now too?
Get a clue, he's a Korean, he was just walking his lunch. Bo shin tong. Not sure if that spelling is correct but it means dog meat soup.
Why you should stay the fuck out of Shitcago if your a tourist.
He's Korean, he was looking for a butcher.
How many sets of knee pads and blow jobs does it take to get a job in the Police News Affairs office?
Thank God the dog was ok. As for the Gook who gives a flying fuck.
I thought Korean's ate dog - so maybe the dog he was walking was take out!

When is the Rahm Times and the other commie paper going to report Chicago is second in the nation of Reported Burglaries according to the FBI. Second only to Houston who had millions of burglars flee there from New Orleans and Katrina.
What was the total number of homicides and shootings? How many were Pilgrims?
Korerans should stay in Korea, where they belong. Niggers should all go back to Africa, where they belong. Quit sponging off the White Man, you fuckin dogs...
probably getting the bladder and bowels of the dog voided before he eats it!
Fuck the gook. He came, he saw, he got ventilated.
