It’s going to take a long time to reverse eight years of hope and change.

When the Democrats cure the gun violence in Chicago, then they can share their wisdom with the rest of us.

Guns don’t commit violence.
Thugs and crazy people do.

An account of the 30 most murderous cities in America was recently announced by Neighborhood Scout Crime Analytics, as reported by WND, which listed them off as follows: “East St. Louis, Illinois; Chester, Pennsylvania.; St. Louis, Missouri.; Baltimore; Petersburg, Virginia; Flint, Michigan; Detroit; New Orleans; Camden, New Jersey; Wilmington, Delaware; Birmingham, Alabama; Newark, New Jersey; Monroe, Louisiana; Portsmouth, Virginia; Cleveland; Jackson, Mississippi; Riviera Beach, Florida; Youngstown, Ohio; Baton Rouge, Louisiana; Bessemer, Alabama; Banning, California; Hartford, Connecticut; Myrtle Beach, South Carolina; Salinas, California; Goldsboro, North Carolina; Desert Hot Springs, California; East Chicago, Indiana; Milwaukee and Washington, D.C.”

It was also noted that so-called “sanctuary cities” – are anything but sanctuaries for legal residents.

68% of U.S. murders occur in 5% of its counties

Think of the numbers of Chicago police who are on the take with the drug/gun dealers. Corruption runs deep in that city.

Were it not for advances in emergency medicine, the # would be far higher.

I’ll bet there are some wishing for the calmer, good ol’ days of Alphonse Capone. A lot less killing.

Isn't it time to DO something??!

Common sense reform - just one more great law.

We need a law that makes shooting humans with guns illegal.

And all this with a new, LOWER population! Chicago is striving to be Detroit 2.0.

I read that if Baltimore had Chicago’s population, they would be at over 1300 murders this year.

As it stands, they cracked 300 last week. Only 44 more and they break the all time per capita record, set in 2015.

If they really set their mind to it, the all time record was 353 set in 1993 when the population was at least 100,000 more people.

Of course, the democrats who are in total control of the city will blame Trump and the Republicans.

Of course, since WWII, Republicans held Mayoral office only twice. 1943-47 and 1963-1967. The office was held by the same man both times.

The failure lies on progressive leftists, who are all failures.

Sheriff David Clarke: NFL Players Should Tell Chicago ‘Gangbangers’ to ‘Put the Guns Down’
The Politistick ^ | OCTOBER 17, 2017 | MATTHEW K. BURKE

Posted on Wednesday, October 18, 2017 1:10:36 AM by Mr. Mojo IN

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3596032/posts

Responding to progressive propagandist Trevor Noah, host of “The Daily Show,” who has been hosting his show from Chicago, where he has been bashing conservatives for highlighting the longtime Democrat-controlled city’s astronomical murder rate, despite having some of the strictest gun control laws in the country, former Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clark appeared on FOX Business to discuss not only Chicago but also the anti-American NFL protests against the American flag and the National Anthem.

Sheriff Clarke accused Trevor Noah of trying to downplay Chicago’s murder rate because it sheds a negative light on the Democrat Party and that it’s Obama’s adopted hometown.

“They are trying to find a statistic that takes the ugliness off of this,” Clarke said. “There’s a lot of people here whose hands have been in this including Barack Obama, including [Democrat Chicago Mayor] Rahm Emanuel who’s has thrown the Chicago police department under the bus. There’s the academia with their inane social engineering, soft on crime policies.

You have a lenient court system. But here’s the one common threat that really bothers me that weaves through all of this including the other cities that he [Trevor Noah] tried to hide behind — St. Louis, Chicago or Detroit and Cleveland — black victims, overwhelmingly, black people are slaughtered in the streets in these American cities and the perpetrators are black as well.”

“It is funny to me, and I don’t mean that rhetorically, that when one police officer — and what is it anomaly in the United States — kills a black man –whether armed or not — all of a sudden the town is burned down but these people in these great cities, good people, many of these children, a nine-year-old in the city of Chicago can get gunned down,” Sheriff Clarke said. “And what do we get out of people like Noah and others? Yawns. Black lives matter? Where are they?” he asked.

David Clarke then tied the issue into the NFL protests, stating that if the NFL players truly wanted to make a meaningful difference in the lives of Black Americans, they would go into Chicago in the high crime areas and insist that the “gangbangers” put down their guns and stop shooting people.

“Where is the NFL Players Association? Why aren’t they down in these streets of St. Louis? There is NFL team in Detroit and Cleveland and Chicago. Where are these players? Why aren’t they in the streets asking for calm, if they think this is so simple?

If they think the police are screwing this up and the crazy injustice they’re talking about, why don’t they go down to the City of Chicago and also these other cities and why don’t they ask for peace?

Why don’t they tell these gangbangers, who should be locked up in prison, tell them to put the guns down? No, all we hear is this grandstanding on the NFL sidelines over the National Anthem. This stuff is crazy.”

Fox Business host Liz MacDonald noted at the beginning of the segment that Trevor Noah conveniently left out the fact that 59 people were murdered in the month of September alone — the exact same number who died in the recent Las Vegas mass murder.

Imagine if 50 white kids were shot to death in Evanston.

You would see the 101 Airborne Division deployed throughout the streets.

There certainly would not be this huge langourous swamp of unconcern that the Democrat leadership exhibits when scores of their inner city voters succumb to violent death.

The sad thing is if the city police dept were not hiding some murders under different classifications that number would be much higher. Thanks to excellent reporting by Chicago magazine who finally blew the whistle on this mathematical misconduct by the city.
I urge anyone interested in this subject
