Under normal circumstances I'd go off on an expletive filled rant about how our religious leaders of all faiths are not doing anything about the gun violence. Or, how our politicians are doing the same. Fuck it. It's Sunday, and I'm going to chill and do like them and watch all the Alien and Predator movies. Hell, I might throw in some Godzilla flicks.

Crazy shit right? It truly is sad that people are just this evil. There are solutions out there that can bring these horrible numbers down even lower. But, whatever you politicians decide to do don't follow Texas lead. Texas has a higher murder rate when you compare it with those three states above. Texas figures if they get bibles into public schools everything will be just peachy. Instead of addressing the issue of crime these GOP politicians keep passing legislation that has, and will always get struck down by the courts. They love wasting taxpayer money.

The third link happened back in December. It is simply mind-blowing how the police dropped the ball on this one. To this very day, they have not arrested the guy. The police have his name and address. The victim filed a complaint. I'd find out if I can sue them. Just read it so you can be just as pissed as I am.

I have a doctor's appointment today so I'll let the links speak for themselves. I do have two points in the making. The second and third links are indeed costly, so I say make damn sure you tax the rich not the working poor. The second point is read the last link.

I had some business to attend to last week in downtown Chicago. I live in Lansing and took a Lyft there and back on the same expressways. My trip happened on the day the Obama Presidential Library opened. Needless to say, traffic was a motherfucker coming and going. Getting there was fine despite the traffic. Getting back was an entirely different story with the return Lyft driver. When traffic slowed he used the emergency lanes weaving in and out of traffic. Don't do that folks.

Fucking Monday's am I right? Two attempted mass shootings one here, the other in Canada. We also have a case of random violence across the city. I'm curious how that fight, then shooting went down at that auto shop? If it's me, the first words out of my mouth before the work is done is how much? Should the insurance covers any of it, I wouldn't even ask. If possible, any witnesses to the last link I'd like to hear your version of what went down.

Wait, you are going to waste taxpayer money on a "new" department that will not solve the problem of gun violence? How about saving us some money and just install cameras on every street and alley throughout the city? Hire people to monitor those cameras, a minimum high school diploma requirement should suffice, and put a phone in front of them so they can dispatch police. Oh wait, that's 911 without the cameras on every street and alley. Okay city, I just saved the taxpayers a ton of money. My consultant fee is 10 grand. Donate it via this blog and implement my suggestion.
