Advocacy groups opposing the planned shutdown of 49 schools in Chicago are turning to the United Nations for help, urging U.N. officials to investigate and take steps to prevent human rights abuses which, they say, will result from the closures.

Screw the UN.

If they want something to whine about we can send them the emergency manager who closed fully half the schools in Detroit.

Those schools are already the sock puppets of the U. N., implementing it’s goals and fulfilling it’s objectives drafted by U.N.E.S.C.O.

Most people think U.N.E.S.C.O. and think food for the poor around the world. It also has an education wing that drafts some of the most destructive lesson plans for schools around the world. And of course our Leftists are only to eager to ask how high when the U. N. says jump.

What kind of Americans run to the UN?

None I want to be bothered with.

When I lived in Michigan there was a town near the Canadian border that was slated to become the site of a nuclear waste dump. They had tried everything but could not get the dump canceled or relocated.

So they went to the Canadian MP across the river. He lodged a formal diplomatic protest that it was too close to the border.

Astoundingly, that did the trick.

Oh brother. I hope Chicago tells the U.N. to pound sand, but since they are as liberal as they come, they’ll probably kowtow.

Sorry, the UN is too busy investigating the Trayvon Martin shooting. Please call again later.

Send in the Blue Helmets! I figure a division of occupation troops might last one Saturday night there if they have armor and artillery.

Will the UN provide the funding to keep the schools open?

What’s more telling about this is that these people calling for UN intervention appear to have lost all faith in Obama’s regime to help them.

That’s a good sign. It means idiots on the left don’t even trust him anymore.

Anyone who tries to get the UN to intervene in the sovereign affairs of this nation or any of her sovereign States should be tried for Treason against the United States, and publicly hung by the neck until dead.

And since most Americans are too lily-livered for such forthright action, the next-best outcome would be to deport all such traitorous malcontents to some ubnderdeveloped 5th-world sh*thole where the UN never even bothers looking, where they can whine and rot without disturbing the peace here.

IMHO.

So guys in blue helmets are supposed to teach the classes in the dangerous ‘hoods of Chicago to feral youths who couldn’t care less?

Or is the remedy money? Have the nasty, racist USA pay reparations?
