Another total waste of $55 million. If this isn’t learned in the home/church (right, good luck) with respect for the right to life and property, then they’re wasting taxpayers money. Sounds like a community organizer project . . . waste of time and money.

>> attend a yoga class to learn how to handle stress.

Hey, that could come in handy later, when they’re forty years old and starving their way through an economic collapse.

$55 mill would have paid for a lot of police officers. Why are we not classifying gangs as terrorist organizations and round ‘em up and send ‘em to gitmo? That is what they are?

Power hungry thugs making thousands a week selling drugs and willing to kill over perceived slights from other thugs will read these fliers and give it all up?

WHAT A JOKE! What a laughable joke. What an insane, laughable joke. What a stupid, insane laughable joke.

On top of that, most of the targeted people are unable to read the fliers, thanks to the bankrupt public school system in Chicago.

And they wonder why Chi town is out of money.

Just sayn’

This is exactly how the DNC voting machine works. It is all about Social Justice, Social Gospel, Saul Alinksy- progressive church movement, buying votes- laundering money, race pimps, hustlers and cons. These are Obama’s people and his hood.

Hree is just one more guy, from a google search. Look up John Perkins center, and Woodlawn. It is all the same people- pushing redisrtibution of wealth and stealing our tax money, while calling us racists and disrupting our society.

Politically motivated or not, it's hard to argue that the nearly $55 million spent on the Neighborhood Recovery Initiative helped stem violence in Chicago. Two years after the program was implemented, there have been 476 murders in the city, a nearly 20 percent increase over 2011.

Well, the obvious political answer is to double-down on the program. *sheesh* what a waste.

For cripes sake, at least make them work for the money, like the old CCC. This is total BS. What else to expect, more redistribution?

Perhaps the money would be better spent PROMOTING Chicago violence. It’s somewhat self-limiting if allowed to run rampant, like a parasite that kills its host.

Typical Leftist Emanuel/Obama approach - throw money and waste it all.

Just let people have permits to carry and the problem will go away by itself in no time at all.
