Top Chicago Cop Targets Palin
IBD Editorials ^ | June 27, 2011 | Staff

Gun Control: Chicago's new police superintendent blames Alaska's ex-governor for inner-city gun violence and crime, and says gun-rights advocates are racist. Disarming victims doesn't prevent crime, sir.

Speaking to the choir, literally, about gun control, Garry McCarthy, former police chief of Newark, N.J., told an audience at St. Sabina Church in the Windy City about leaving a homicide scene in Newark, returning home and flipping on the TV to find an episode of "Sarah Palin's Alaska."

"She was caribou hunting and talking about the right to bear arms," McCarthy said. "Why wasn't she at the crime scene with me?"

We know. We don't see the connection between hunting and gang violence either, but gun-control advocates do.

Sarah Palin was not at that crime scene because she had nothing to do with the crime. As a defender of the Second Amendment and the right to keep and bear arms, she is like the vast majority of law-abiding gun-owning Americans who never fire or even point their gun in anger, unless someone's trying to break into their house.

These gun grabbing Marxists will invoke her name and blame her for everything, which is one reason why all their pathetic attempts to cure their unconscionable problems always fail.

They don’t deal in truth.

McCarthy rambled on. He equated private gun ownership with what he called "government-sponsored racism" and the right to bear arms with slavery, segregation and Jim Crow laws. "Federal laws that facilitate the flow of illegal firearms into our urban centers across the country, that are killing our black and brown children," he said.

"Illegal firearms". What a joke. We have a right to keep and bear arms. End of discussion, Mr. McCarthy.

McCarthy is the highest paid city employee with an annual salary of $260,004.

Just another big city politician who blames anyone but the criminal.

How stupid. I doubt many of the Chicago thugs hear a word from Sarah Palin. Those folks are Obama peeps, and they don’t give a damn what he thinks either.

There is a reason why places like Chicago, Detroit and Philly have such huge amounts of gun crimes and places like Alaska, Wyoming, Montana, rural Tennessee, Georgia, Texas, et al don’t...

But if I say it I’ll be branded a racist.

See, this is what I don't like about Palin - she doesn't bother to show up at crime scenes in Chicago.

Sounds like St. Sabina’s tax-exempt status needs to be yanked.

“Why wasn’t she at the crime scene with me?”

McCarthy, Had she (or the victim) been there armed, there would not have been a crime scene you d@#%wad.

Lol. Some Chicago Lib/Dem has got their hand so far up McCarthy’s rectum he thinks their Rolex is his internal clock.

Attacking Sarah Palin because she is a 2A supporter. Why don’t you just come out and tell the truth McCarthy, you don’t trust your constituents with firearms and alot of them give you good reason to do so.

But you support punishing the rest of law abiding citizens who are savvy enough to know the police cannot protect them personally and they need to do it themselves.

But he just keeps doing what is politically expedient, giving BS hooyah speeches in churches for political points...

Why weren’t the police there to thwart the crime to begin with? Oh, you can only respond after the crimes occur? That’s why citizens need to be armed ... jerkwad.

Hell, I’ll say it, I don’t care if anyone calls me a racist. The blacks are turning feral in the large cities, it is happening in Chicago, in Joliet IL, in Philadelphia, in Newark, in Los Angeles, and coming soon to anytown USA. They are forming large groups of roving predator gangs and taking whatever they want, and God help anyone who gets in their way.

The only tie I can see between hunting and gang violence is that the thugs specifically prey on- and target- weaker people and hunt them down. If we were armed in Illinois, we’d have a fighting chance. Conceal-Carry: When Seconds Count and Help is Minutes Away. 9MM beats 9-1-1 every time.

Oh what the heck. I’m willing to overlook Palin’s affinity for those scary guns for the opportunity to have a president with a record of fighting government corruption.

This guy is digging his own grave. He won’t last more than a year here I am betting.
