“Braun, 59, was standing at her front door late Friday when an assailant came out of the bushes...”

Bushes fault.

Sorry she was hurt. Probably a Dem in Daly’s machine and against the 2nd Amendment

A couple of years ago, there was a spate of attacks on U of C students by “local youts”. The university administrators and police could never understand why.

It she had been a pistol packin’ Mama, she might not have broken her wrist hanging on to her purse. I am surprised she didn’t roll if she fell!

I have fond memories of Chicago. I took my wife there with my young daughter and her friend in 1991. We got fouled up direction wise and ended up on the campus of Chicago University. We asked the way to Hinsdale. My wife's friend lives there. How helpful people were.

To the matter at hand. I remember a courtly Republican politician referring to Carol Mosely-Braun. "I will yield to the gentle and gracious lady". No, he was not being sarcastic.

I will follow his example. We can "knock em' down and drag em' out" in politics. Carol is a big girl. In this matter, I hope they catch this abominable coward. She did not deserve this, no matter how unpleasant her views. Kudos to the person who intervened. What if he was a Republican? LOL

Tell me how that black ‘yout’ was put down by whitey and should be ‘understood’ now, Carol.

You know what they say: What are the chances we have a newly-minted Republican?

I lived in Hyde Park, the nicest neighborhood on the South Side, as well as Uptown, the worst/poorest neighborhood on the North Side. Despite the fact that the former neighborhood had more wealth, the latter was safer. Why? Well it was explained to me that the CPD practices "containment" of crime to certain sections of the city, and since Hyde Park is surrounded on three sides by pure urban hell, it is in the "no go" zone of Chicago.

The University organized its own police force years ago in response to this hard truth, but they can't do much. Nor can a law abiding citizen in Chicago even OWN a handgun, let alone carry one.

Turnabout is fairplay considering she mugged Illinois taxpayers for many years.

Pig-louse travels to Chicago slums to negotiate with crime bosses.

Senator Reid surrenders Chicago, and reports to the world.... “we have lost the war” on crime.

All democrats and two RINO’s vote to discontinue funding and blame President Bush for this tragedy.

Gore argues that the suspects actions are a direct result of the Global Warming that Bush caused.

Kerry reports that he was in Nam becoming a hero. “It was seared, seared” into his butt.

H. Clinton says that she would have prevented this crime, but on Saturday, she makes cookies for Bill.

A man wearing dark clothing tried to steal her purse, and in the ensuing struggle she apparently fell to the ground and broke her left wrist. She was taken to Northwestern University Hospital, where she was treated and released.
