A Cook County judge Friday ruled former Ald. Sharon Dixon (24th) unfit to stand trial on charges alleging she approached Chicago Police officers outside the 10th district with a loaded gun last spring.

How is it possible, former and unfit be applied to an alderman from Chicago?

A few days ago a Conyers aide was “ticketed” for entering a federal courthouse with a gun.

She is Black. From the photos, she looks to be very angry as well.

Her actions certainly earned her the title “Former Alderman”. Perhaps she will soon be known a “Prisoner 8943001284597321” (They have a lot of these people in their jails).

On the other hand, she IS black. Hm? Never mind.........

Maybe she is a “Former Alderman”, but currently she is a brainless nitwit nincompoop. She may be unfit to stand trial, but she should be incarcerated.

If she’s black,

Uuuuuh, from the picture I'd say she more green than anything. Perhaps she's over doing that colloidal silver thing.

The frightening thing to me is that she was formerly in a position of leadership as an Alderman and she had a gun illegally waving it around outside of a police station. It appears she was mentally fit to be a community leader, but not mentally fit enough to face justice.

This is not the kind person I would want running my community! I can see why Chicago has serious problems.

Chicago aldermen have had concealed carry all along.
