I think the “Occupy” crowd should put together a group of volunteers to travel to Chicago and forcibly take the guns away from those thugs.
I bet all of the shooters were white cops in blackface.
Ditto.
Just waiting for one of the convicts Obama released to kill somebody
We need to pull what troops we have left in western europe and redeploy them to Cook county.
