The University of Chicago also employed Milton Friedman and was noted for being one of the few universities that actually dealt severely with 1960’s student radicals who broke the university’s code of conduct. It is in no way a creature of the Chicago Machine.
It was an excuse. “Chicago” to most wingnuts seems to be the Mecca Of All That Is Bad. Any discussion of even universal background checks for firearms purchases inevitably leads to the totally bullshit claim that Chicago is the murder capital of America despite strict gun control.
