Chicago in Meltdown as Rahm Fundraises

Commentary ^ | 9/7/2012 | Bethany Mandel

The city of Chicago, the third largest in America, is crumbling into anarchy. The murder rate is so out of control that federal authorities have agreed to assist the Chicago Police Department in their efforts to curb soaring violence. The city has seen over a thirty-percent rise in its murder rate this year and in the last eight days of August, 82 people were killed or wounded by gun violence. With his city in a violent downward spiral, Mayor Rahm Emanuel has been focusing on what’s important: banning Chik-fil-A from Chicago.

On Wednesday, during Bill Clinton’s address to the DNC in Charlotte, cameras panned to Emanuel, laughing in the audience. While he was enjoying his stay in Charlotte at least three people were murdered back home in Chicago just that night. What could be more important than taking charge of one of the most violent cities in America? Apparently, for Emanuel, it’s fundraising for his old boss President Barack Obama.

But please don't say "Chicago." It's a word that only racists can hear.

[GeronL]

The Mayor’s not in town, uh oh, the Gangsters gone wild, oh no.

[Don Corleone]

Chicago...Detroit...Obama’s America if he is reelected. Bet on it. Watts like riots will be a daily fare for anyone unlucky enough to live in a metropolitan area or a suburb. My God...they are shooting kids on school buses in Chicago now. I expect that any day soon one of the anti-God democrats will open up with an Uzi in a church or synagogue. This is Marxism just at its onset. It only gets worse. We will skip 3rd world and move right to 4th. God save the Republic!

[mojito]

Chicagodishu does have a nice ring to it, you must admit.

[FES0844]

So where is Farakan??

[PowderMonkey]

They’re getting the weekend off to an early start in …umm..er…Chi-town today. Someone reportedly put a bullet through a school bus full of children this morning.





Rats! Caught out again...

"The city has seen over a thirty-percent rise in its murder rate this year and in the last eight days of August, 82 people were killed or wounded by gun violence."

None of that matters to anyone as long as the unions and democrats remain in power.

[tumblindice]

Chicago is a quagmire. Time to pull our people out.

[adorno]

Just think how bad it would be if there were a Chick-fil-A in Chicago.

Dance, little ballerina, dance.......

[Terry Mross]

Romney should run ads about the murder rate of blacks killing blacks and say he’ll ask Jackson and Sharpton to co-chair a commission.

[mosaicwolf]

When the free bees are gone, let the fellas spill over into the hinter lands. They will be delt with with extreme prejudice,

[Focault's Pendulum]

The prancer’s in charge....all is well.

[JDoutrider]

There are solutions to this. Beings this is a family friendly forum I'll stand down...

[pallis]

All that hate, envy, welfarism and racial agitation is paying off. It’s Obama’s kind of town.
