Usually (and I don’t want to put words in the posters mouth) when people complain about the loop being dangerous what they mean is that they are more proximate to homeless people than they are used to. Which is a bias that incorrectly associates homelessness (and it’s frequently paired mental illness) with danger. If you replace “dangerous” with “frequented by the homeless”) you get more candidates. The now closed McDonald’s on state. The one at wells and Adam’s and (not in the south loop) the one at lake and lasalle. Though I’d bet money that the most dangerous in terms of being involved in or witnessing violence is the “rock and roll” McDonald’s in river north because of its hours and proximity to drunks. Most people would _not_ assume it was dangerous though.
