It's working fine, it's just that we aren't yet doing enough on our part by spending enough money on it or relinquishing enough of our personal freedom.

We're getting there however.

Chicago shootings are up. Maybe a leading indicator that we’re coming out of the recession?

Looks like Obamanation didn’t do a very good job of “Community Organizing”.

The odd thing is that Detroit gets the bad reputation despite being pretty quiet compared to Chicago.

Detroit thugs are learning that granny just might be packin.

Looks like Holder’s “Fast and Furious” prequel is working as planned.

“It seems every weekend, Chicago has between 10-24 shootings with 1-3 being fatal.”

Totally Unacceptable!

At that rate, the trash in Chicago will never thin its ranks.

Send guns and ammo to Chicago’s trash. Do it for Chicago’s future, for America’s future.

And, it will generate more jobs in the funeral industry.

What’s not to like about this?

And no one seems to care. Yet we’re all supposed to be outraged, horrified, and grieving over Trayvon.

For every thug that shoots some other thug, there always seem to be 2 or 3 innocent bystanders that get shot or killed as well.

Where’s the outrage?

(oh, that’s right - blame it on the guns)
