if you just put "I hate Obama and Obamacare" as your tagline, would your life be easier?

I don't get the choices, it conflates two separate issues. I thought the cover was in bad taste, but I'm for free speech. Saying "I feel that cover was inappropriate" is not the same as saying "they have no right to publish that cover"

jsut saw that the policeman who released photos in response to the stone cover has been put on restricted duty. at least he didn't get fired. altho, if i was stuck behind a desk rather than out and about, i'd probably wish i'd been fired.

Yet the CPD officers ordered back on the streets from behind a desk had a problem.

Despite the murder rate dropping in half over the past 20 years.

Still only a year min/max (with good behavior or two w/bad behavior) for an illegal gun crime in Chi town so maybe that could be a factor. Nothing to lose for a guy facing a year?
