This weekend is long and warm; probably the first really good weather weekend in 2016. So people will be outside and getting in each others way. Rev. Corey Brooks should be encouraging his flock to get married and raise their children together, but most likely will be showing them how to fill out the forms to get stuff for free.

You never let a crisis go to waste, and you know what that means ... we need to confiscate guns ... raise the minimum wage to $15 ... increase teacher pay ... and play more midnight basketball.

And if you don't do this I will have to cut back on teachers and first responders!

The Second City Cop blog plans to accept the Hey Jackass numbers of shootings/deaths as the only official numbers.

“If something doesn’t change, if we don’t get jobs for these kids, if we don’t change the economic situation, I’m worried that we could be looking at a blood bath,” said the Rev. Corey Brooks, a pastor on the city’s South Side, a mostly African-American area where some of the shootings have been concentrated.”

Talk to your homey. He thinks he’s done miraculous things with the economy. Guess he doesn’t give a crap about you, eh? Didn’t 97% of “your people” vote for their brother?

Fourth of July is on a three-day weekend this year. With the rising temperatures factored in, a bloodbath there is very possible. Right now temps are moderate, but July is another story.

How many employers want to hire people whose alternative to employment is murder?

As a “white” person I am not allowed in this PC world to even comment on the problems of inner-cities.

For me to even think I know of a solution would brand me a “racist” and wishing to commit “hate crimes”

The Democrats owned the big cities, they owned this problem.

I will sit on the side line quietly waiting for them to find a solution.

Meanwhile thousands of blacks die needlessly, but at least a white guy did not try offer solutions.

“if we don’t get jobs for these kids, if we don’t change the economic situation, I’m worried that we could be looking at a blood bath,” “


Bull***** !

There wasn’t rampant violence in the streets during The Great Depression.

These killers/shooters are just plain thugs.

You go into scum neighborhoods and lock up all the violent POS protected species that filth like Rohm Emanuel make political hay on. While there you also lock up criminals LIKE Rohm the Marxist. Who is criminally negligent.
