That would be reporting the facts honestly, and telling the truth, and they just don’t do “that”.

Apparently their “gun control” sucks.

For all the idiotic things Bloomberg did in NYC, at least he understands what crime does to a city, but using "stop and frisk" as a legitimate crime prevention tool...he literally saved hundreds of lives from being gunned down in the big apple...

Rahm if he even cared an micrometer about the blacks in Chicago would vigorously enforce a similar type policy...

But he's more concerned about his political ass then the lives of mostly innocent blacks killed in the crossfire of gangland wars...

But, he's got to keep his plantation voters scared and dependent on their masters...

How can this be? Gun control fixes all gun violence doesn’t it? Could liberals be wrong? Hollywood? The gov’mnt?

Besides, how can anyone dumb enough to shoot their gun while holding it sideways be held accountable?

Result of too much Community Organizing. Sad. But how can they shoot anyone if guns are banned?

You know I was thinking the same thing. The left always says the right has blood on its hands when a mass shooting occurs but look who’s talking. The party that supports the mass slaughter of American babies every year and one that has controlled a city where mass shootings are seemingly an everyday occurrence. It’s getting to the point where Chicago officials will have to be giving us a weekly press conference giving the body count just as they did during the Vietnam War. I doubt too many Ted Cruz for president bumper stickers are visible in the Windy City.

"The Great Society and all of its subsequent iterations have brought us here."

I believe it's the progressive liberals who have caused ALL the murder and mayhem in our society today... It's the drug culture that receives continuing support from the left that has caused the collapse of the American family... And it is being done with malice of forethought...and therein lies the problem...

We always speak of Hitler or Mao Tse-Tung and how many people they murdered in their rise to power... What about the Progress left in America... How many people have they murdered in their effort to destroy our Constitutional Republic..?

The left and their drugs....just as effective as poison gas ever was...

If Chicago would offer $6000 tax free a month to adopt gang members the shootings would stop see Obama&Co logic.

When the floods subside in the Midwest, the sandbags should be shipped to Chitcago.
