They are the same cows who call the local reporters and hold up their electric/gas bills for a picture while the widescreen TV, X-Box, Wii and the electric space heaters are in the background.

Liberalism has caused the collapse of many blame families. It is the dependant-on-government mindset that is a large part of this weekly and even daily garbage that permeates through much of America's major cities.Sounds right.

All the future neurosurgeons releasing their tensions caused by heavy studying.
Were any of the deaths or injuries caused by IED's?

A reporter on the scene stated that the shooters were wearing hoodies. The reporter was then arrested for a hate crime.

“25 people shot, one dead, across city”
Are these the Seasonally Adjusted numbers or the raw data?

"Maybe Chicago should pass a law against shooting - put up No Gun Zone signs. That should help. It worked for the No Drug Zone signs. Right? "Signs?
Almost half the residents of New Orleans and Detroit cannot read or write, I don't expect Chicago to be much different, eh?
It would be racist of us to put up signs when we know that so many residents cannot read...the signs would just be a reminder of their plight.
BTW, the 'signs' would be sold for scrap metal like the irrigation pipes were in Zimbabwe.

Another example of the brightest of the bright.
Aren't you proud to be an American?

Don't know, it's Chicago.
But I'm pretty sure that one dead person can now vote at least 25 times come November.

Well picture signs like this?
Make them a glue-on poster on street lamps and such so they couldn't be taken down and sold for the metal.

The desire to have children comes from economics. The breeding with thugs comes from simple reality: a woman without a thug on call, becomes prey for all the other thugs in the neighborhood. She then also has an incentive to have her sons grow up to be thugs, so they can protect her when she gets too old to attract thugs into her bed.

UNFORTUNATELY, the fatherless boys are often motherless because mother works two jobs.
In what dreamland?Why, you ole cynic, you.
Yeah, "mother" sells drugs and works the streets. Hey, that IS TWO jobs. :o)

My idea is more outlandish.
I would offer every inner-city mother $25,000, a big screen TV, and a year free food from the local chicken fast food store if they would surrender all of their pre-kindergarden children, if any, and get their tubes tied. Single females over 14 as well.
Then I would grant the Catholic church license to open orphanages to raise these children through High School prep school.
So I would simply take away all of the under 6-year from inner city mothers, with their permission, and start from scratch raising the children to be good citizens.
The way we are going, in the year 3050 we will still have inner city families the same as they are today.

You give these biological female parents too much credit. Most likely their spawn is used as an EITC, EBT, AFDC, WICs, SNAP, SCHIP, etc. qualifier. They are the same cows who call the local reporters and hold up their electric/gas bills for a picture while the widescreen TV, X-Box, Wii and the electric space heaters are in the background. And don't forget when they hit the lottery when their offspring gets killed by a white or white-hispanic....Gravy Train!. No sympathies here whatsoever. I don't give a damn about 'cycles'. I want sane people back in charge that flat out tell these heifer breed cows that they can no longer make money off of having children, period. Leeches all. When they stop getting paid to have babies, they will move on to other endeavors. Seems to me as if those heifer breed cows don't give a DAMN about what YOU want. Why on EARTH should they care?
Bellyaching here does nothing. Have you no suggestions beyond wanting sane people back in charge? Lol. I sure as HELL don't want to run for ANY office. I DON'T want to be in charge of anyone or anything beyond my own bailiwick.

I don't think it is.
