Three people were killed, including a 16-year-old boy, and sixteen others injured in shootings across the city between late Saturday morning and early Sunday morning, police said.
The majority of the victims--and most probably the shooters--in Chicago were black; the others Hispanic. And yet, except for grieving family and friends, a protest or two by some local religious person--nothing. Reverends Jesse Jackson Senior and Al Sharpton had nothing to say; they were silent on the destruction of the black family, teen agers having children, lack of fathers.
President Barack Obama (D), was too busy vacationing in his 1% locale to mourn the loss of males who looked like the sons he might have had.
Local politicians were also silent--except maybe to demand still more tax dollars for still more useless after school programs, before school programs, during school programs and maybe another scandal ridden "job training" program to explain their communities' continuing downward, out of control situation.

because the left can’t harp on about military police and get their base out to vote as they have nothing else to run on
Ferguson is anti-white racial politics that benefits Team Evil the Democratic party that is why. 4GW on the streets, calls for de-escalation and conciliation in the halls of power and shazam a one party state like Chicago that exports its governing model to its suburbs (the next ferguson flashpoint)
A Discussion On Race, Crime And The Inconvenient Facts
By John F Gaski

About 90% of interracial violent crime in our nation is committed by blacks against whites. The black-on-white murder rate in the U.S. exceeds the white-on-black rate by about 2.5-to-1. The black-on-white assault and battery rate exceeds the corresponding white-on-black rate in this country by at least 10-to-1.
Federal Statistics of black on white violence, with links and mathematical extrapolation formulas
Statistics are meaningless when those in charge and their complicit media seemingly want a race war.
At least Herbert Hoover sent in Eliot Ness and the Feds when the Chicago police proved to be too corrupt and inept to stop the violence. Obama has a vaunted pen and phone. What has he done for his “hometown”.
The thug life is just part of the urban culture,so if it's your culture, your society, then it's totally acceptable.
Not in my local paper.
No one got shot this weekend where I live.
Black teenager lying in the street dead ... shot by the POlice ... riots and Jackson/Sharpton.
Let's be clear. The rioter's are not concerned about the black teenager.
He sent them Rahm Emmanuel.
What more do you want?
They don’t riot because it doesn’t further the Obama agenda. Unless there is a white guy involved you can’t really exacerbate racial tensions. If there is a white or even a white Hispanic involved, then it’s a different story. Then the Regime can send someone down to spread rumors and innuendo. And I am not kidding or being sarcastic in the least. This piece of rat filth in the White house is EXACTLY why we are having riots in town like Ferguson. Ask yourself this: When has this ever happened before? And I’m not talking about obvious abuse like the Rodney King video. This is different - Clear cut case of self defense in Florida with Zimmerman, cop shoots robber in Ferguson, happens everyday, happened 1000s of times, but gee whiz anytime it gets too hot in Obama land as with the border, suddenly we have something to distract the press.
Where is the lyin’ king and his Monday morning “’we’ lost some folks this weekend..........” address?
Inconvenient Facts
********************
That, in a nutshell, largely explains the deafening silence. Objectively analyzing the cultural aspects of Chicago’s violence makes liberals (and their fellow travellers in the “journalist” community) uncomfortable. They simply don’t want to open that can of worms nor acknowledge the real root causes of the violence.
Even in a slow newsweek, you’ll hear little if anything about the routine weekend violence and killings in Chicago. The media would rather allow the violence to contine than question the complete failure of liberal plantation policies.
Check the golf course.
Very impressive!
Whenever there is gunfire during my backswing, I wind up shanking it into the woods!
Doesn’t fit the Obama mantra.
Is he back in MV from his quick trip to d.c. for whatever important matter brought him there last night. Wow! He’s just like the energizer bunny huh? He just keeps goin’ and goin’ and goin’.........
I wonder how many of the Chicago anarchists have gone to Ferguson to add to the turmoil there??
Because they can’t find a white guy involved.
