President Obama’s hometown is a war zone. The horrendous violence on the streets there has escalated. With warm summer-like weather, gang bangers were especially active, easily surpassing 2015’s Mothers Day carnage (3 killed, 25 wounded) and 2014’s (5 killed, 19 wounded).
Meanwhile, the President of the United States ignores the battlefield conditions in the hometown he adopted as his political base.
Nearly all of the violence is among young black males, making the rate of death in that particular demographic segment comparable to a serous war zone. A map of the violence this year to date from heyjackss.com shows where the war zone is: in minority neighborhoods

Not only is Obama ignoring these killings, but so is Jesse, Rev Al, BLM...
I grew up in this violence.
It’s all about drug turf. All of it is senseless. I had a childhood friend murdered because his older brother was a dope boy who was the actual target, but these pieces of shit will kill family members now all the same.
It’s highly localized to the neighborhoods caught in the crossfire, and it stinks. There are no jobs, and the only way out is through luck or sheer willpower. You need to overcome a lot of trauma, and fight for every chance you can take to get out. A lot of good people will do bad things for the next high...
You have cops that don’t have the resources to stop the problem, and even one or two bad seeds that work to enable the criminals by pitting them against one another in a “darwin” bullshit way.
Emperor Rahm likes to spout out statistics that violence has never been lower, but for the people who live through it...it sure as hell doesn’t feel like it.
What do expect from a class that thinks “mother” is half a word.
Bust a cap for yo’ mamma on Motha’s Day!
Give the drugs away free. In clinics.
Take the money out of drugs, you take the crime out of drugs. The War on Drugs has failed.
I have the answer to the slaughter...
Five pounds of new ‘gun-control’ laws, 6 marches with people hopelessly waving their fists in the air, two new ‘community centers” named after MLK and four ‘job training’ programs.
Or...
We can elect Donald Trump... to bring jobs back to the United States from Mexico and every other 3rd world hellhole that bought our crooked politicians.

Time to get off the liberal plantation Thomas Lifson...
Baraq’s 12 years of community organizing there has paid big dividends it appears.
“Give the drugs away free. In clinics”
Free drugs, free rehab. Once again paid on the backs of the dwindling taxpayer base. Another epic failure idea ready in the waiting for the fraud and waste on the level of Medicare with the bonus of a strung out Nation. And did I mention, it’s all for free!
Diapers make good emergency wound bandages, not as good as tampons but pretty good. With him there’s always a hidden agenda.
Time to move out of Chicago.
Question - How much crime is related to drugs? Robberies to finance drug use. Murders, corruption. William F Buckley wrote an article that 80% of the crime in NYC was drug related.
So yes. Free drugs provided at a fraction of the cost of the crime that comes from drug use and the War on Drugs.
“And the lyin’ king’s talkin’ about the diaper gap.”
Just think, this is the kind of ‘UTOPIA’ that Obama, Clinton, and all the democrats want all of us to live under.....only the criminals have guns...because we just can’t trust the average law abiding citizen with any weapons. I am so sick of these people that I find myself turning them out more and more on the radio and TV. I do know one thing if Hillary gets elected, it’s further down the slide we go.
Yeah, that's another approach. Sell a joint, you get fried. One time and you're out. So every drug dealer will fight to the death.
The other problem with that is that the drug trade will switch to prescription drugs. People will use drugs of a variety of type. I really prefer a free market approach - take the profit out of the drug trade and the drug violence and crime disappears.
“So yes. Free drugs provided at a fraction of the cost of the crime that comes from drug use and the War on Drugs”
Care to guess the loss productivity of a free drug nation to businesses?
zero. People who want to do drugs are already doing them.
