Daley and his family continue to sleep and wake under the protection of a 24 hour a day armed security detail while insisting that people do NOT need guns to protect them in his clearly crime and gun free city. Sooooo...why exactly does HE?? Did we mention that Chicagoans now pay the highest tax rate of any major American city, 10.25%? Those taxes sure are making everyone's life better, aren't they?
Daley continues to ignore calls for him to dismiss the police detail that guards him with guns 24 hours a day and release them to ptorect people whose name isn't "Daley". For this youmg man, it's too late.
Daley also wants to host the 2016 Olympics in Chicago. If he can't protect ordinary taxpaying citizens and claims that the Chicago Polcie were "powerless" to stop the FOUR shooting and ONE gun murder that occurred in and around hte "Taste of Chicago" and 4th of July fireworks this year (Daley boasts that there were 3.5 million people attending and only ONE murder!) how is he going to protect a city full of athletes and foreigh dignitaries? OLYMIPCS LISTEN UP!! You want another Munich?
Well said ......BTTT !!
What is taking place on the near North side and in the formerly ethnic gentrified areas, like around Bell St? Our relatives (hedge funds/commercial real estate/married very well)live in those areas, are ardent anti-gun progressives who loved Harold Washington, but support Daley. The very thought of anyone like myself (rural/older female)owning a gun makes them literally stutter, choke and turn pale as death.
IMO,they will be anti-gun until the deaths/robberies/lack of safety hit home. Even then, they may decide to hire security rather than even touch a gun, ever. They would never move out of the city, either. At least, so far.
You are actually safer on the streets of Baghdad than on the streets of DemocRAT run Chicago.
People like that are a ton of fun to watch. Those are the people who, instead of heping themselves, will either hire help or demand that the GUMMINT help them.

Please tell me the lady in the last photo is over 18...
What would you say if I told you that's my daughter?
I shouldn’t have even posted that. My apologies (running far away from daddy).
The password is HYPOCRISY.
I wouldn't believe you.
Little Village is a Chicago town that is all Mexican. The Mexican flag is more prominent there than the US flag. Little Village is nothing less than an extension of Mexico itself, with its allegiance to Mexico and its identity overwhelmingly Mexican with no interest at all of becoming American.
Slug must have been fired from a slingshot since guns are banned in Chicago.
The lady in the last photo is your daughter?
Tell her to correct her stance, its not as stable as it could be for shooting. Her hip is slighly canted which is not good and her left thumb should be on top of her right thumbn with the shoulder more back and up.
Other than that she has wonderful poise and elegance. :)
I’d ask again if she was over 18 and then decide to run or ask respectfully if she has a boyfriend...especially with a name like CLEMENZA! Don’t send Luca Brazzi after me!!
Yeah, help them by not letting anyone else defend themselves.
Oh man, I love this website.
Thanks. I know all young ladies should be taught all of the proper form, grip, sight alignment and trigger prep in the first lesson so they can shoot 1" groups at fifty yards on their first attempt in firing a semi-automatic pistol like these guys:
Brian Enos
Rob Leatham
And when our grand-son turns 16, we'll put him in a 700 BHP NASCAR for driving lessons.
I did have a smiley face at the end of the post to denote that as a joke. If you’re going to get so defensive, perhaps you should not have made the original post with pictures in the first place.
A misunderstanding. Apologies accepted. No hard feelings... : )
