Instead of asking the U.S. President Donald Trump for assistance with Chicago’s never-ending gun violence, Cook County commissioner Richard Boykin, a Democrat, has reportedly expressed interest in teaming up with the United Nations.
“I’m hoping to appeal to the U.N. to actually come to Chicago and meet with victims of violence, and maybe even possibly help out in terms of peacekeeping efforts, because I think it’s so critical for us to make sure that these neighborhoods are safe,” he said Thursday, according to local station WBBM.
He reportedly made the comments from Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport en route to New York to meet with Oscar Fernandez-Taranco of Argentina, the U.N. Assistant Secretary-General for Peacekeeping Support.
Boykin continued by lamenting the “quiet genocide taking place in too many of our communities” and rightly noting that most victims of Chicago’s gun violence are blacks who have been “killed at the hands of another African American.”
“So we must protect these population groups, and that’s what the United Nations does,” he added. “They’re a peacekeeping force. They know all about keeping the peace, and so we’re hopeful that they’ll hear our appeal.”
I appreciate his desire to help the black community in Chicago, but why seek help from the U.N. when Trump has already reportedly sent “an additional 20 agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives … to Chicago to help in the effort at cracking down on gun crime and the repeat criminals who routinely commit such crimes”?
The president has also proposed sending in the National Guard, though the city’s left-wing mayor, Rahm Emmanuel, rudely rejected this offer in January.
“We’re going through a process of reinvigorating community policing, building trust between relationships in the community and law enforcement,” he said, as reported by the Chicago Tribune...

Wow. Wake up America.
If that’s not treason, I don’t know what is. Happy hunting in any case.
Question: Considering the state of the world, just how have these UN peacekeepers been in the last 40 or so years?
Jumping the chain of command to invite a foreign body to invade ought to land him in front of a wall facing a firing squad.
Blue Helmets in Gang Banger territory. What’s the over/under on Blue Helmets cowering in dark corners?
“killed at the hands of another African American.”
Reminds me of what Eddie Murphy said about “your worse nightmare...(comment removed before the mods see it)..with a gun!”
As if bringing in white Europeans would keep the peace better than the Illinois National Guard.
Bring in armed blue helmets from the Congo and Nepal to disarm or shoot Chicago gang bangers
Under command of some General from Pakistan who reports to a South Korean bureaucrat with a human rights staff from Iran
Who says democrats dont offer solutions?
Progressives have long harboured bizarre fantasies about the UN taking control of the US either whole or in part. They’re odd ducks.
Bout time the US got some return on investment with all the money they give to the UN. If Chicagoans want UN peacekeepers there, go ahead. Let ‘em try. Unless the peacekeepers are Africans or Muzzies, I don’t suspect they’ll last long.
I don’t know if the blue helmets would be cowering in dark corners, perhaps stealing and raping, their usual MO.
Yeah that worked out really well in Rwanda. /s
Blue heads bleed a lot.
Black gang violence has caused all of the Chicago middle class to flee the city which is putting a real crimp on the drug dealing biz - lack of customer base can only be solved by one method - importing new customers.
UN peace keepers have a hard won reputation for being big customers for drugs and prostitution when on peace keeping missions.
White Europeans get sent on NATO missions to patrol the countries like Niger that supply troops for blue helmets
Cook County commissioner Richard Boykin, Please come to my little town in southern Pa. I have a large oak tree and a logging rope I want to show you.
Those blue helmets make great targets...even for gangbangers holding their 32 gun sideways!
I’m OK with the UN taking over Chicago to fight the gang problem. As a matter of fact, I’m suggesting a reality TV show. UN troops vs gang-bangers.
