Only fools ever went and hung around the Buyers Flea market on Division Street in Chicago. On weekends this crappy place resembled a shopping bazar in Mexico City with cramped conditions and cheap junk for sale. Most likely the same fools from the poverty stricken Mexican immigrant
community shopped here and made this place home because it resembled their own home. I often did written pieces about the antique and flea market culture and the numerous vendors that peddled this crap in what is suppose to be a world-class city. 
With this in ind I was pleased to see a major fire nearly burn the entire place to the ground in this two block stretch of market that self-proclaims proudly Chcago's largest indoor and outdoor market. How anyone can be proud and think a huge flea market where few people outside of Mexico-born migrants ever ventured is something I always found amusing. Places such as this reinforce Chicago's segregation and in talking about the stark divide and segregation that exists in the city no liberal fools ever discuss shit that was the Buyer's Flea market for propagating this segregation. 
This place deserved to be burnt to a crisp and was a waste of space as the space was not welcoming or important to all but a few select few fools of Mexican descent, many here illegally, running their own cheap side business likely not paying taxes as they didn't in Mexico and why it is such a weak country. You got so many people leaving their country selling junk in flea markets across America instead of being productive and building their country like South Koreans showed they could. 
The fools cannot even fight drug lords and gangs and stop the bloodshed over there. c'mon these are the fools you want to embrace here. A buyers flea market existed to feed into segregation and in this self-segregation of the Mexican jingoist they embrace something where they know their people flock to and others wouldn't step foot in such a hazardous tight cramped style. buyers Flea market is gone..it gone..my friends regardless of this geriatric owner named Lenny Cross who says no matter how many millions and billions the fool wants to reopen buyers Flea market. if the guy had a brain he would sell it to developers and help the community progress with real stores and development not these shady outlets for knock-off items and neurotic and eccentric Mexicans who want to live in their all whol all-brown world.
