That would include the Chicago Police Dept., which performs enforcement duties for the Chicago Government and Mexican drug cartel branches in Chicago.

“promise of help to find a trade and a job.”

Sorry - they are already fully employed dealing drugs and shooting each other.

“their new reality.”

Actually where programs like this have been tried, it has worked.

It’s not midnight basketball or other crap like that. It’s basically telling these kids either give up the lifestyle or you’re going to jail.

Holder himself should show up and deliver that pep talk.

At least we would be relieved of his presence after that.

Fly Hillary in from some far off distant land and have her wave her magical “cease fire” hand and there will be peace throughout the regime :-)

The short description of the program is “Keeping guns out of the hands of negroes.”

They could “sell” the program to black people by telling them that they are “naive and childlike”, and that guns will just make their lives “stressful and unhappy”. And what they need is “benevolent guidance”, which is “just for their own good.”

And their Democrat leaders are just asking that, in exchange for welfare benefits, they do some “healthy agricultural work”, not for pay, as such. Importantly, some of the smarter and stronger black people will be tasked with “overseeing” this work, and “motivating” those who are not contributing their “fair share” to the labor.

It is anticipated that the proceeds from cotton sales alone will more than pay for the program, and that the less social black people will be “sent down the river” for more strenuous work in the cane fields.

Democrats still. Just like Democrats in the old days.

Let me get this straight...stolen tax dollars by the trillions to social services didn’t fix it?

You mean having generational feral bastards doesn’t produce brain surgeons or engineers? No economic development? No ivy-walled mansions?

Who knew?

I actually agree wuth this. Target those doing crime. Do not target general gun control that denies the innocent their 2nd amendment rights. i will support this the ACLU will not. something like this is what is needed. I do not want to give up my rights cause .gov will not solve the problem of crime. Go after crime not guns.

Wait just a second...this sounds an awful lot like ‘profiling’ to me.

The basics are simple: identify a pool of young men involved in gangs and street violence, then confront them with the threat of sustained police attention . . .

I thought that already was the job of the police.

. . . and the promise of help to find a trade and a job.

Hard to do that without an education
