[“We will have more gangs, more murders, more killers, and everything,” said CPS student Brittany Sanders.]

Allow the law-abiding citizens in ghettos to legally arm themselves.

IMHO Chicago may be the first city to have race riots. GOP should keep their mouth shut and let the Dems hang themselves. In times of austerity, inner city blacks will be the first to riot. They got use to the handouts and will not take the word no for a solution. It will be black Dems attacking liberal white Dems in Chicago. Burn Chicago burn.

There used to be stories back the cold war days that the Soviets planted nuclear weapons in the United States in various secure locations in the event of a war with us. Since the USSR fell, those stories fell into obscurity. We have a situation now where every crime ridden minority dominated inner city is the equivalent of one of those hidden H-bombs, but placed there after many decades of planning by the left. Teaming hellholes of race hate, violent crime and poverty, held over the abyss by the thread of EBT cards, useless make-work government jobs, and other forms of “financial assistance”. Cutting that thread would like phoning NORAD with launch sequences but with the ICBM’s pointed right back at us.

The urban riots of the late 1960’s helped splinter the Democrats and led to a GOP resurgence in 1968.

>> 53 schools and 61 buildings it plans to close at the end of the school year

Closing 53 schools sounds crazy, but does that mean the attending students will have no place to go next school year?

As for me, break out the popcorn, lol.

They have had a huge population loss.

They were structured to handle many more students in the past.

But, the students are not there to fill the schools.

The current students will be absorbed into other schools,

It means they'll go a couple blocks away to another half-empty school building. You do realize that this is all about having to use tax dollars to pay fewer principals, teachers, "guidance counselors", a zillion miscellaneous "administrators", school nurses, janitors, etc., etc., etc.? It's all about the unions. The kids have nothing to do with this battle.

So a lot of hype about practical measures. No surprise there.

Agreed. And they were on strike not that long ago.

May Elementary and nearby Louis Armstrong Math & Science Elementary School would be closed under the CPS plan, and their students would join George Leland Elementary School, although the new Leland would be placed in the current May building. All three buildings are located on the same half-mile stretch of Congress Parkway

What will make the Chicago riots fun to watch is how the IL governor and Pres Obama will react. Typically they will take their time trying to make a decision because they will be ordering troops in to crush their supporters. Gov Quin is going to hesitate and Pres Obama will be even worst as Chicago burns and the Mayor is screaming for help.

Problem is Chicago enrollment in public schools have dropped badly. They have enough schools for 600,000 pupils, but only 500,000 students attend public schools. Keeping schools open with classrooms short 15 to 20 percent of students cost money to operate, money Chicago does not have.

blacks murder other blacks. good grief they blame the white guy for blacks murdering other blacks.

and the whole i don’t see white people being murdered... that’s because honey, white people are not in gangs like blacks and aren’t targeting their own people - or anyone - like blacks are.

The major complaint about closing those schools is that the kids will be bussed to schools that are in other tribal zones, and will result in more murders.

Chicago is divided into little feudal duchies, and each little fiefdom is savagely protective of it's turf. As long as the little barons declare fidelity to the Man on Five, and provide the requisite number of votes, they are paid, and otherwise ignored.

It's sort of hard on slow children caught in the crossfire, but the smart ones survive and eventually take over their father's baronies.

I'd call it a return to the Dark Ages, but that's racist.

It’s going to be a “long, hot, ugly summer” in Chicago.

Rham Emmanuel is indeed a racist liar. And yes, he doesn't give two hoots about the south side of Chicago.

He probably feels that the more carnage in the black community the better, sort of a "good riddance to bad rubbish" philosophy.

Sorry Chicago, you bought it you live (or die) with it.
