Michelle Obama brings anti-violence message to Chicago
Chicago Tribune ^ | April 10, 2013 | Lolly Bowean and Dahleen Glanton

First lady Michelle Obama brought her message against youth violence to Chicago today, appearing at a luncheon with the mayor and civic leaders and then visiting Harper High School, whose students have often been casualties of gunfire.

Attending the luncheon were the parents of slain 15-year-old Hadiya Pendleton, whose funeral Obama attended in February.

"This is personal," said Obama, as she told the story of growing up in Chicago's South Shore community. "Hadiya's family did everything right, but she still didn't have a chance."

“Hadiya’s family did everything right, but she still didn’t have a chance.” Thanks the liberal dems for that.

How complicated is an “anti-violence” message? “Hey! Don’t do it. It’s wrong.”

Bang. It’s done. Gig is over.

Caviar, truffles and foie gras in a champagne-reduction sauce?

Obama’s dictatorship is causing the purchase hundreds of weapons every minute by citizens. I wonder why.

She can’t even pronounce the word “struggle.”

I can’t bear to listen to either her or her so-called HINO. Did she mention the word “Gangs” in her narcissistic speech?

I thought foie gras was banned in Chicago. Oh wait, so are handguns.
