Doesn’t Chicagoland have some of the stiffest gun control laws in the contry? Yet the highest gun violence? How is this possible?

Read the truth about the thug parents here:

Post a Comment On: Second City Cop
“Call It What It Is”

Is anyone really reading what the media is putting out there? Is anyone in the media going to ask the obvious question? Let’s set the stage here.

Dad changing baby in the back of a van. Think about the physical confines of a van. Those of you lucky enough to have changed a diaper know the mechanics involved. You’re hunched over the child, there isn’t much space, even in a van. He has an extensive criminal record - nearly 40 arrests, gun charges, dope dealing, self-admitted gang banger - and now he is refusing to cooperate with the investigation.

Mom caught a couple rounds herself while pregnant with the child, so her lifestyle choices aren’t exactly stellar.

Dad got shot twice, in the side of the face and the ass, so this probably wasn’t what cops call a “violation.” Violations are usually messages over some error in judgment (shorting the tip, under-counting, talking smack) that can be cured with a bullet in the leg, arm, etc., not usually intended to be fatal. A round to the head isn’t a violation - that’s a hit. The shot in the ass occurs when they’re running away.

Channel 5 lists the baby’s wounds as follows: His young daughter was hit five times: in the thigh, shoulder, lung, liver and bowels, the family later said. This after lying on the front seat to get her diaper changed. Anything here strike anyone as strange? Dad shot twice, once probably running away. Baby that can’t run away, catches five rounds? And if Dad was running, away, why keep shooting into the van?

We’ll tell you what we think - human shield. We’ll even bet money on it.

All the play-reverends and politicians are huffy, surprised and sad about what they’ve had a direct hand in creating. There are monsters among us, created by failed social policies, enabled by the thinking that “there is no such thing as a bad boy,” and nurtured by blaming everyone else but the faces in the mirror.

I hope the crime will cause a conservative to run for Chicago mayor, in 2015. For at least the last 20 years, Chicago has had the same problems (high crime rate, high tax rates, and corruption), but its voters keep voting for liberals, thinking that those same people will do something different.
