The liberal answer: bring in the military to shoot American citizens in the streets of Chicago in order to restore order. After all, that solution is very popular in the third world especially among dictators.
Wait! I thought the violence in Chicago was no worse than in any other major city according to the liberal media. Strange how other cities have not issued a call for the military to take back the streets. Those requests must be stuck in committee.
It is frightening that people like Representative Davis are in positions of authority.
Here is a suggestion: get out of Chicago now!
No troops in Chicago! Avoid that quaqmire, no more Vietnams!!!
“This American Life” did an episode on what it’s like to go to school in one of these Chicago neighborhoods. Beyond appalling.
They walk home in the middle of the street because they consider the sidewalks too dangerous. It’s not safe to walk alone but if your group is too big the thugs consider it provocative, and it’s not safe. Talked about one kid (Christian) who refused to join gang. The poor kid literally had no life. Couldn’t go outside, couldn’t go near a window, had no friends. Just broke my heart.

Never lived in the city of Chicago, but in an adjoining county abutting Cook county, a county full of lovely Republican, tree-lined suburbs. Du Page county is conservative and safe....but I wonder for how long.
I think the racial terrorists will be abandoning the riot-and-burn-the-cities, mob techniques of the sixties and begin using more Alinsky-style tactical approaches...raining cement blocks down from overpasses on the suburban cars driving to and from their jobs in the cities, flash mobs unexpectedly gathering at large stores like K-Marts and WalMarts that are full of enticing, fence-ible loot, breaking in and smashing and then running with their gains....that sort of thing....smaller groups, better planning, safer tactics. They have plenty of more brainy "community organizers" leading and directing them now.
The suburbs are safer by and large, but for how long!

maybe... juuuuuust maybe... the policies, morals, values and ethics play some part in the well being of a community.
if that community starts destroying itself, it might be a sign of failed practices.
and if those practices yield similar results in different cities... quite possibility the practices are at fault... those practices being those employed by the progressive left for decades.
but hey, what do i know. please, continue shooting each other.
no, seriously... keep blasting away. i’ve got more popcorn and there’s nothing better then watching liberal policies disintegrate in real-time
Must be in all those neighborhoods full of creepy-ass-crackers. Or the Amish.
This is the same mentality that kept Eric Holder’s people in New Orleans as Katrina bore down, the mentality that it is somebody else’ responsibility to save you.
No state of emergency.
Posse Comitatus (erh however itz spelt)
They should pass some laws restricting guns, and all their problems will disappear! /s
If they don’t like the moral standards of their Hood then they should start taking their Hood back themselves starting with their own house and own kids. The men should once again become such and the women glad of it.
National Guardsmen have jobs. Who will support their families while they are guarding these murderous felons?
Why do they want the NG? All they’ll do is cry and riot when an NG kills some dirtbag who deserved it.
The reason why the cops can’t protect you is because you hate the cops and hamstring them at every turn. Stop complaining about getting exactly what you demand.
Maybe they’re doing this because they expect trouble after the Martin verdict.
““Every single day we wake up in the city of Chicago, some child, some young adult, some African-American male has been murdered,” state Rep. Monique Davis said Thursday. “This is not acceptable.”
Maybe you should talk to YOUR peeps about bringing morality back to YOUR African-American “culture”. The rest of us are sick of it and you.
Gangbangers are always dissed and stay dissed.
Did not IL just made CCW legal.
They must have a lot of creepy ass crackers up there.
If the people of Chicago are unable to govern themselves, then they should not be able to vote in county, state or national elections. The Democrats would tighten them up in about two minutes.
