Gen. Lee and Stonewall loose in Chicago again....
What the northern cities will never admit, is that they created this problem. When slavery ended, it also ended employment for hundreds of thousands of slaves who fled the war torn south for refuge in northern cities. The North ended slavery, but were thoroughly racist towards the newcomers, leading to the creation of urban ghettos. The do-gooders then tried to salve their conscience by creating the welfare state, ensuring that those ghettoes became cesspools of multi-generational sloth and single mother families. These cities are all Democrat fortresses, who now own the mess they created. Not one dime of federal money should go to help them out of their own mess.
