But I'm not the one insinuating that putting these "gangbangers" in prison en masse is going to solve the problem of gun violence.

It simply won't.

Especially considering that the majority of these gangs originated and were funded by people who didn't live in Illinois.

And this isn't like the movie Minority Report where there's a "pre-crime" division. Come on now.

I see 38 and go all in

My point is you can find a "study" to support anything,.

Hey karaoke, salsa lessons, drama lessons, paint and new release movies all cost money.

Hopefully there's outrage in NYC this morning.

I guess getting coverage, outside of Chicago, late is better than never. Thankfully the author NAILS it.

Only 80 people shot and 14 killed this weekend.

You would think that trying to find ways to combat it would be an obsession of liberals who profess to care about the welfare of our cities, but all their energy is devoted to income inequality, global warming and other fashionable causes.

And the drumbeat of murder in a great American city goes on.

And the do-nothing mayor was recently the White house Chief of Staff.

But I'm sure the root cause of all of it all is Fox News/ G.W. Bush/ Racists picking on the President/ and of course, OMG WE NEED MORE GUN LAWS!!

UPDATE:
The mayor HAS chimed in - he says the violence is “senseless” and “totally unacceptable”

Unbelievable. Incompetency run amok.

I don't think you can put blame on the mayor as his minimum-mandatory sentencing plan for gun crimes was shut down by politicians representing the same communities the violence is occurring, calling the plan racist.

The people in the neighborhood know who the gangbangers are, so do the police and so does Jesse Jackson, politicians et al.

The people live in fear of reprisal as they live with the gangbangers while the police can't stop and search or even count on prosecutors and judges to do their job to the fullest because of Jesse Jackson et al protecting the bangers under the guise of racism.

It's a classic case of FUBAR and the cries for stricter gun laws in a city with the strictest gun laws constantly affirms that.

Ridiculous. He is the Mayor of the city, he has a responsibility to call out representatives of these communities responsible for upholding laws detrimental to the citizenry of the city. Perhaps Rahm should put a call into his buddy in the White House, you'd have to admit the guy has got a knack for bypassing those pesky legislators.

He has called out the reps and they in turn called him racist and formed some 'never to be heard from again' group to investigate.

The President is well aware of the problem and does his best to avoid these neighborhoods, including his racist former pastor's church and all the other churches/schools he visited when he was conning them of their votes. In fact I hear the odds of the Obama's moving back to Chicago is a no bet.

BTW Wonder how the influx of illegals seeking work will have on these neighborhood's unemployment rate and why their reps aren't calling foul?

Big business wants cheap labor and democrats want more voters thus creating a 'Perfect Storm'. Meanwhile over 80 get shot, no one goes to jail, and the next shipment of government cheese is only 7 days away.
