Bitching will never solve this problem. So once again I'm asking our elected officials to designate these butt-heads as terrorist once and for all. Hell, you might as well give these douche-bags some incentive for quitting this madness.

In Chicago, killings and questions on the rise

In Chicago, killings and questions on the rise


Look folks, I have a very simple solution for you. Designate them as Terrorist. It's what they are.

Enjoy your weekend, and Happy New Year.

Projections: Casino industry, not Illinois, wins if gambling grows

Projections: Casino industry, not Illinois, wins if gambling grows


Ha! Just look at the infamous scam aptly dubbed "Illinois State Lottery". And I quote: "Proceeds Go Directly Into The General School Fund". Really? Really? Didn't we just have teachers go on strike here? Yep.

Hey ass-clowns! Here's an idea. Legalize Pot and reap the benefits. You might as well because you are raising cigarette taxes next year. Think of the revenue generated with Pot? Oh well, common sense runs in short supply around here, and the rest of the country. Idiots want teachers "Armed in Class", but don't want, or know how it can be paid for. What if a teacher has a mental illness that hasn't been reported? Oh the Love/Lust of Money Blinds All. "You cannot serve two Masters."

Hey! He gave law enforcement the finger. They told him NO, and he went right ahead and did it. Sorry David, an apology just will not do when you give law enforcement the finger.

If law enforcement is serious about the laws on the books, they should not only fine him, but also serve up that one year prison stint, not only for him, but the idiot that went and bought, and transported the clip. It's time for all of us to get serious. They told the show NO, and advised them of the LAW. They violated it. I want a clear message sent. Prosecute these "Think they are above the law" idiots.

Christmas Eve shootings leave 7 hurt

Christmas Eve shootings leave 7 hurt


What else can you say? The time will come when these kids "walking down the street", will just stop. As with all things, some of these kids will just wake up, and say screw it, I'm staying in because I don't want to die. Meanwhile, our elected officials are still sitting on their collective asses, not coming up with one simple piece of legislation for preventing terrorist from roaming our streets.

How odd when you think about the loud-mouth gang that screams for no tax increase of any kind, when you need such in order to hire more police. Oh well. One day these kids will wake up. Yet, if they are waiting on our elected representatives, shootings by terrorist like these in the article will keep happening.

Gun sales surge; 3 1/2 years of ammunition magazines sold in 72 hours

Gun sales surge; 3 1/2 years of ammunition magazines sold in 72 hours



Oh boy! Once again, expect nothing less from the misinformed crowd. This truly is a testament to those that fail common-sense understanding of what is really happening in this country.

It's a very simple thing for all of us to grasp. The government is not going to take away your guns. See how simple that is? All they are doing, is making an attempt, let me put caps on that, ATTEMPT, from preventing criminals, and those of a lesser mental capacity from obtaining weapons of mass destruction. When you have your little freak-out, running back and forth buying such weapons, and ammo, you are doing nothing but increasing the odds of something tragic happening in your very own home, you are trying to protect.

And there you have it folks. That is the true testament of those that consistently fail common-sense understanding of what is really happening in this country.

5 injured in overnight shootings

5 injured in overnight shootings


It's never going to end, but something can be done that will reduce these numbers. I guess we'll have to wait on our elected representatives to show some balls or, we could just take matters into our own hands and vote in people that will get the job done.

There's no need for a list of what needs to be done. We all know this. But one thing that will definitely put a major dent in these senseless shootings, is defining these murderous pukes as terrorist. It's exactly what they are. Let's at least start there. 

3 wounded in overnight shootings

3 wounded in overnight shootings


That last story in the article is a serious head-shaker. These punks are getting so bold that they think everyone smokes dope? Is it getting to the point now, that you can't even walk down the street minding your own business? What if the asshole asked him for a light, and the guy didn't smoke period? This is insane.

You elected officials have to make the determination, and declaration that these are terrorist. It's just that simple.

Gun lobby CEO calls for guns to protect schools

Gun lobby CEO calls for guns to protect schools


Well that fantastic brain fart just confirmed everything I knew about the NRA Super Idiot. If any NRA card carrying members come across this, please tear up or burn your card.

This magnificent douche-bag just proved to America that he could care less about the membership. All he wants is for you to keep giving him money. Did any of you catch that super stupid brain fart he threw out? More guns in schools? Who's going to pay for that? Him? I think not. The GOP controlled house? Not. The fiscally constrained cities, and states? Nope.

Final analysis. This giant bag of crap is insane. He basically blamed all of us, even the GOP members he happily gives money, and threatens, for this recent tragedy. Do the right thing NRA card carrying members. Destroy the membership card. This bat crap insane douche-bag isn't worth your hard earned money.   

Gun background checks jump in Illinois

Gun background checks jump in Illinois


Expect nothing less right? We have this idiotic appellate court ruling that we in the State of Illinois, the last bastion of sanity, can now tuck firearms in our shorts. I wonder which of them got money from the NRA? Another reason for this "Spike", is we all know the cities, towns, villages, and state will make us once again, pay through the fucking nose, while terrorist roaming our streets, will not.

Don't get it twisted. I'm down with our Second Amendment. But I have no use for an assault weapon, unless I re-enlist. And honestly, I doubt the Army would even consider taking my old ass back. We let individuals highjack our democracy with money. The Assault Weapons Ban should have never expired, along with High Capacity Magazines. And since we are on the subject of weapons of mass destruction. Who in the fuck thought it was a good idea to sell fucking ammunition over the internet? I'm not a violent person, but I'd be happy to slap the shit out of that asshole. Oh well. Meanwhile terrorist, or as our politicians call them, criminals, still roam our streets, and don't have to pay extra like we do. 

Sen. Boxer proposes deploying National Guard at schools

Sen. Boxer proposes deploying National Guard at schools


Really? Now that's just as bad as that "Preacher" that said the most dumbest thing about "Taking God Out Of Schools".  Sorry Senator, but that's a complete over-reaction like a uninformed gun nut screaming they want to take away our guns.

First things first. The simple truth will always prevail. It is all of you sitting in Congress that dropped the ball. All you let the "Assault Weapons Ban" expire. The same goes for "High Capacity Magazines". No civilian in this country should be sold a weapon which has "Assault" in its first name. The meaning of that word is already implied. ASSAULT! That simply means to kill as many PEOPLE as possible. What in the name of God were you people thinking when you allowed gun stores, shops, and open air markets to sell such a weapon? Oh I know. The NRA. How many people do you know that's chowed down on a bullet riddled deer? Weapons of this nature belong in the military, not civilian hands.

Now you want to propose sending in the National Guard as security in elementary schools? Last time I checked, you guys are fucking them over by sending them to Afghanistan, over, and over again. Here's another little civics, and factual nugget. When we send you people to Congress, one of your jobs is to stop overzealous local, and state officials from stomping on our rights, and ensuring we have adequate numbers of safety officers, teachers, and sound public schools. Another epic failure on your part. None of you have stepped in and told these (As we now find out, nut jobs) to back the fuck off. Need an example? Look at Governor "Trans-vaginal" Bob, and his merry band of women haters. Or how about those "Union-Busting" numbskulls around the states fucking over police, firefighters, and teachers? I could go on, but you already know how much you Congressional people have FAILED us. When our local and state officials go nuts, it's your job to slap them back to reality.

National Guard? Not needed. Here's what we demand. Background checks for all guns sold in this country. No "Loopholes". A Federal database that every state has access. Reinstate the assault weapons ban, and high capacity magazines. See how simple that is?

3 wounded in West Side shootings this morning


What else can you say? I know. Start charging these punks as terrorist. The "War on Drugs" is a complete and utter failure. It is time for all of us to face the facts, and deal with this in the manner it deserves.

These punks, time after time, have demonstrated that they don't care, about people, property, and any other thing you can think of. Look at the idiot that called in the threat at the church. Look at the idiot that claim he was going to shoot up a school, and set his "wife on fire". Look at the idiots in each city, and state killing not only themselves, but innocent civilians.

Last time I checked, the Patriot Act is still in effect. It's time to deal with this in the manner it deserves.

Police: Gang member faces attempted murder charge for shooting officer

Just a suggestion. Prosecutors should also consider filing "Domestic Terrorist Charges" also. Imagine if they began doing that? In my opinion, they should. These criminals are nothing more but terrorist. Just look at what they do. Their actions are the classic definitions of terrorist activities.

Okay. " He was out on parole after he was sentenced to four years in prison for robbery in 2009, according to the Illinois Department of Corrections and police." He didn't even do the 4 years, or they took time off while the douche-bag sat in the County Jail. WHY?

What's so hard about making them complete their education while locked up? You know, a GED, or if they are in longer, a degree? But no! We let them have access to expensive gym equipment at our expense. Last time I checked, walking, jogging, push-ups, and sit-ups don't cost taxpayers anything. WHY?

Maybe these crack-head idiots should read a newspaper, or better still, use their cell phones and access the news section. I take it they missed the memo on the "Concealed-Carry Ban" that got overturned.

U.S. appeals court strikes down state's concealed-carry ban

U.S. appeals court strikes down state's concealed-carry ban



I have no problem with this decision. The bottom line is clear. If you pass an unconstitutional law, it cannot stand. The Second Amendment may be "dated", but it gives Americans, regardless of race, the "Right..." The majority of our lawmakers have a degree or two in constitutional, criminal, and civil law. Passing sweeping, unconstitutional laws reflects poorly on their academic knowledge.

We in the City of Chicago already have to jump through hoops, and pay unjust "Fees" just to own a firearm for self defense in our own homes, and can't even sit in our own front, or backyards with the weapon concealed or not. While I'm not fan of the NRA, they do from time to time advocate for the little guy, or gal. My only beef with this organization, are the stupid laws, and legislation they and that pitiful organization ALEC" come up with, and shove through the legislative body. A perfect example is that horrendous "Stand Your Ground Law" in certain states. That crap legislation also reflects badly on their academic knowledge, and should be banned.

Oh boy! After reading this out of this world article, I could not help but think of the biblical story of Job, where the big man upstairs basically read Job the riot act. In a nutshell, he simply told Job "You don't know shit".

Here's a funny little fact. When NASA scientist were calculating how to get to the moon and back, they kept running into a flaw in their math. One scientist went to the "Good Book" and discovered the problem. They were missing an entire day. Don't believe me? Look up the "wrestling match". Time was stopped.

Now we have this brain fart of slamming a "spaceship" into an asteroid. Stunning, isn't it? "You don't know shit".

Questions about disorderly conduct law impact on gang funerals

Questions about disorderly conduct law impact on gang funerals



"Gang funerals" huh! One day, and I do hope soon, these politicians will stop treating this situation like a hoard of babies, and begin treating these punks like the terrorist that they are.

What's it going to take? How many innocent civilians must die? Politicians, and corporations created this mess with that bullshit cram them all in public housing, so we can control them mentality. Well the genie is out of the bottle when they demolished the civilian version of minimum security prisons. Now they are everywhere, creating havoc. To this day, not one person from the elected branch of government, or any branch of law enforcement has come up with a reasonable solution in combating these terrorist let loose amongst the population. Oh wait, I forgot. They are going to pull police for funerals, so those that wish retaliation can't get off a shot.

Here's a brain-fart. How about passing out mug-shots to officers so they can slap cuffs on the gang members attending such funerals? Remember that so-called "Heat List"? You will find no apologies for sarcasm here. The only reasonable solution is for our legislators, and law enforcement officials to designate these bums as terrorist. That is what they are.

Well, brains is one thing this kid doesn't have much of. Sure he may be a good "singer/rapper", but being on probation, and caught on video with a weapon, only begs the question, how dumb are you?

One day sanity will once again prevail. Our prosecutors will one day wake the fuck up, and begin slamming these idiots with maximum penalties. Probation? Really? Then turns around and gives you the finger by getting on video with a weapon. Makes you wonder who's dumber. The judge, prosecutor, the juvenile, or all of them.

Astronauts could survive Mars radiation for long stretches

Astronauts could survive Mars radiation for long stretches


You have to love science. Unless of course, you are a republican. Then, and only then, you'd scream, a witch!

This is very encouraging news for scientist, and potential astronauts for that one day soon, journey to the red planet. Just imagine the things that can, and will be done. Astronauts could do a rescue mission for the disabled Spirit rover. They could clean it up, replace the busted wheel, and let it continue doing science missions astronauts can't, in the event of a solar storm.

Its been established that water once flowed on Mars. So there is always that remote possibility of fossil remains. Only astronauts on the surface digging away could either prove, or disprove such a theory. Unless, then again, you are a republican, screaming a witch!

Fed explores mortgage rates at workshop

Fed explores mortgage rates at workshop


Mortgage rates? Once again from the tales from being in complete denial. This is becoming so fucking frustrating. The problem homeowners are facing is under-fucking-water mortgages. Homeowners need principle reduction. It doesn't get any simpler than that.

The fucking banks still collect regardless if principle is reduced to market values. This shit is beyond maddening. If your house isn't worth what you are paying now, what is so fucking hard about bringing the fucking value down to what it's really worth? The banks will not lose a fucking dime if these jack-holes reduced principle.

Here's a kick straight in the ass. On the Fannie Mae website, they have a process to see if you "Qualify" for principle reduction. You find out that you do, call, and they tell you "They Don't Do Principle Reduction". Ain't that a bitch?

There are petitions out there calling for principle reduction. I've signed God knows how many, like millions of people. If that Bush era holdover doesn't address this issue, he should be replaced with someone that would. It doesn't get any simpler than that.

6 dead, 11 wounded across city overnight

6 dead, 11 wounded across city overnight


Let's be honest. We all know what's driving this madness. The question remains, what's the best way of tackling it? Naturally, education, and jobs are always the first that come too mind. Yet, when you degrade, or slowly erode such resources, spikes in criminal activity rise.

The typical "knee-jerk" reaction is the howl for more prisons at the taxpayer expense. This, as we are fully aware, solves nothing but a budget deficit for localities, and states, or a boom for private prisons, which always ends with shitty service. So where are the educational opportunities that will lead to decent paying jobs our local and state legislators should be pushing for? Ah! You hear those crickets also. So much for that "Heat List".

We have dim-wits pushing a "conceal/carry" law. Shit don't work. We have elected, and non-elected people pushing "school closures". Shit don't work. We have an empty federal prison in the state they want to sell. Shit don't work. Unless our criminal justice system gets the memo, that these are indeed criminal, terrorist organizations, nothing they propose, will work.

Spikes in criminal activity will continue its rise unless you sit-down, legalize marijuana, designate those engaging in other narcotics, and murderous criminal activity as terrorist, then, and only then, you will soon see dramatic declines. Education is always the key. So wake up and learn from history.

Rep. LaShawn Ford indicted on bank fraud charges

Rep. LaShawn Ford indicted on bank fraud charges


Money makes, and breaks. Another sad saga in the age old quest for wealth and power.

Should the "charges" prove true. This must be one of the dumbest, smartest, motherfuckers on the face of the earth. Yeah, I got you thinking. How could he be dumb and smart at the same time you ask? That's easy. He's so smart he duped people into voting for him. I'm not in his district (There must be a God). Yet at the very same time, this idiot took out a loan for "rehabilitating properties he owned", and didn't do it. Imagine if tenants were in those designated rehab jobs. All it takes is one phone call, or just a curious loan officer to stop by any of the properties. Need I go on?

Look folks. If your elected official has a gambling problem, I don't think a vote for such a person is a wise move. Who went with him on those "casino" trips? Is he as fucked up as the other guy that got busted in Maywood? It's degrees of greed that make others wanting to enter a life of public service, take a second look. Why would you risk everything on some frivolous, material fantasy? Yet the sad ultimate irony is your politics isn't immune from these acts of greed. It doesn't matter if its republican, or democrat. I guess that old saying is true about "serving two masters". It has been proven throughout time, that it just can't be done. Need I go on?

Anyone with a brain knew this stuff would find it's way to American shores. The only question that remains, was this the first, and only shipment that was caught by law enforcement? If any of you seen the effects this plant does to people, you'd run. In a nutshell, fuck angel dust, this shit turns people into zombies.

I'm glad they caught it. Now keep digging and shut those fuck-nuts down in France that sent it.

Supreme Court rejects plea to ban taping of police in Illinois

Supreme Court rejects plea to ban taping of police in Illinois



Don't take this the wrong way, but, when you are the top law enforcement official for the county, re-reading the Constitution isn't going to hurt you.

Sure, I don't have all the degrees that you do, but if they start handing out degrees in common sense, I'd have you beat by a long shot. You had to go waste taxpayer money on a law that anyone with a brain knew it will get struck down as unconstitutional.

Special note for all prosecutors. Police, unless conducting hidden surveillance, do their jobs in the public. You can't restrict public observation, or recording of these public servants doing their job. What's next? No observation or recording of trash collection, street sweeping, and firemen putting out fires? You see how stupid that sounds?

Now do the right thing. Go in your pocket, and reimburse the taxpayer for this unconstitutional undertaking. We the people, need for you to do this, so you will know never, ever bring a brain fart such as this to ever develop again. We just may have mandatory Constitution classes for you prosecutors. Couldn't hurt after-all.

Look fuck-nuts. I'm a veteran, and damn proud of it. But you? You disgrace the uniform by being an ASS. Man the fuck up. Say your sorry. Not only to that lady, but all members of the military past, present, and future. Your conduct is most unbecoming. When we take our uniforms off, and put on a suit, we are still held to a very high standard. You sir, are disrespecting our very reputation with your asinine, petty, cry for attention.

Man the fuck up and say your sorry.

NO! You people need to really stop pushing your beliefs on others. This is a country with a simple message. Practice your religion in the privacy of your own homes, and place of worship.

Here's what's going to happen if you persist in shoving your religion on others. Other religions will demand the same right. Yes folks, even that religion called Islam, that you despise so much, will get the same shot. Think about that you jerks. What's good for the goose...

In my world, religion is about tolerance, and peace. It is never about forcing people to believe, or forcing people to even acknowledge what you believe. You are always going to come up short in this never ending drama.  You are no better, or worse then people that follow different faiths.

Stop this madness of shoving your beliefs on others.

Black Friday: Tempers and arrests all part of annual shopping frenzy

Black Friday: Tempers and arrests all part of annual shopping frenzy


Pardon my french. This is some bullshit, and we as a country need to reinstate the draft.

Yeah, it's just that fucking simple. We yell for the rich to pay their fair share. Sure, they have been fucking sliding by since that crap theory "Trickle Down" was invented. But we as a country, have been sliding by since those fucking idiots in Washington bid farewell to the draft. We don't make an effort at sacrifice with an All Volunteer Military. The last administration told us "To go shopping" after our nation was attacked. And we have been doing it ever since. Why? The ass-clowns in the nations capitol refuse to pass a "Jobs Bill", yet we now find ourselves being blasted with "Black Friday Deals". That's not a fucking deal, when you don't have a fucking job. And here we our trampling people for shit that will collect dust in a week or two.

The "Media" doesn't help in this travesty either. Go ahead, turn on the idiot box. CNN, MSNBC, Fuck FOX, you'll never get a fucking fact there unless you filmed it, all are doing the same thing. A "reporter" standing in a store asking people dumb questions. Haven't we had enough of this shit? Some dumb-ass skipping work, or taking care of their children, standing, or sitting in a line at God knows how many hours, just to buy something made overseas. Fucking brilliant isn't it? No, it's not. We need a wake-up call folks, and a reinstatement of the draft will slap us back into reality. It will, because people will go "Oh Shit"! Those immortal words will once again ring true. "Ask not what your country can do for you." "Ask, what you can do for your country."

Reinstate the draft.

Teachers union chief slams 'top-down' reform

Teachers union chief slams 'top-down' reform


You know when you make a solid point when words like this are used.

 " Lewis criticized "the top-down decision-making that places the views of corporate leaders and hedge fund managers over the voice of parents and communities."

 That is nothing more but a cold hard fact. If you never lived, or experienced such situations, it's always best to shut the fuck up and listen for a change. No person on this earth, with all the degrees ever given, can ever look smart, when they say, or do something stupid.

Private schools only put money in people's pockets that don't need it. Public schools actually help kids learn about the world around them. Slowly dismantling public schools is the greatest mistake any state could ever do. The staggering statistics are there for anyone to see when it comes to crime, poverty, and dope, when you close public schools. If poor, or lower income families could afford putting their kids in private schools, they'd do it. But they can't you rich snobs, because they can't afford it. Hell! Do the fucking math. Take your "Vouchers" and stick them. Vouchers are nothing more but an excuse for the well-to-do to scream handouts. Don't you find it odd how they accuse you of being lazy, on welfare, and "getting gifts", when they want to bribe you into a private school system with a shoddy track record?

What does a corporate big wig, or hedge fund ass-clown know about that? My guess, probably nothing because they don't get the information from the real source.

You see, by doing such a common sense action, politicians and union bosses can't fuck people over anymore by giving their hard earned wages away to those sleazy crooks running hedge funds, and Wall Street.

Well, you knew it was coming.  Call it what you will, but just checking out one of the firms doing this, one could say, "The rents just too damn high".

Scenario time. super storm hits, your flooded, repairs are needed. They pay for it, and so will you. Rowdy kids making paths of destruction, i.e. lawn damage, holes in walls. They pay for it, and so will you. Worst case scenario. Your local, county, and state government gets involved via decrying these homes don't take into consideration "Affordable Housing Laws or Guidelines".

Yep, pricing subject to really change now. End communication.

I'm fully aware the police can't go ape shit and beat the living hell out of these slugs. It would violate their constitutional rights. How about this? If you are a "Known Gang Member", you will officially be deemed a "Terrorist", and forfeit your constitutional rights. Sounds like a plan? Hell, I'd bet the American Civil Liberties Union would even agree with such a move.

Hell China just shoots any motherfucker that breaks the law, and gets convicted. And the ultimate slap in the face, they make the family buy the bullets. Let's be honest for a second. There is no hope for these terrorist. They can't be "rehabilitated", unless law enforcement, and our judicial system demonstrates they mean business. They will continue killing, and terrorizing communities unless we finally declare war on these butt-heads.

IKEA apologizes for use of East German prison labor

IKEA apologizes for use of East German prison labor


Don't you love that old excuse; "We didn't know". If that isn't a mega load of bullshit, I'm a republican. Corporations don't give a rat's ass about anything but the bottom line.

Since the end of slavery, corporation have been looking for cheap labor. Once they find a source of such labor, corporations go through great pains to conceal such tactics.

These people have no decency at all. I saw Mike on The Daily Show last night. He got his false preacher ass handed to him by Mr. Stewart. Did he admit he was wrong? NOPE! All he did was kept serving up more asinine bullshit.

What's more important? A companies bottom line, versus hiring part timers that don't give a shit? That's what companies will get if they decide on hiring part timers. The part timers will go into the exchanges and buy plans suitable for their needs. They will bounce from job to job, looking for full time employment. Companies that hire them as part timers, will have high turnover rates, low productivity, and low morale overall.

And we all know what that leads too.

Unlikely allies behind marijuana votes in Washington, Colorado

Unlikely allies behind marijuana votes in Washington, Colorado


Folks, you just can't beat common sense. Somewhere in the archives of this blog is a paper I wrote many years ago, on the subject of marijuana legalization.

For the sake of brevity, it basically laid out the plot by our timber barons for the criminalization of pot, because they viewed it as a threat to their bottom line. We all know, well, those that choose to be informed, of the economical, and medical benefits this one plant has proven that it can do. It's a cash cow. Criminals, private prisons, law enforcement, judges, prosecutors, defense attorneys, and elected officials know this.

Yet fear not all of you, somewhere, someplace, some idiot is cooking up a more deadly drug. They always do. So go after them. Marijuana will become legal once again. It didn't interfere with anyone's school, or work performance back then, or now.

In all honesty, this shit isn't even newsworthy unless you are dishing out life in prison terms. How about working on that Illinois version of the RICO Act?

You should expect more things of this nature in the future. Are you hearing me parking meter douche-bags? The state, and the city should learn a valuable lesson when they go off on those idiotic privatization trips.

These false trips ate nothing more than the padding of pockets of cronies, that always fails the consumer. State, and local officials wonder why they have budget deficits? It's because of these ever-evolving cons set-up by greedy business people, and politicians. If you ever need a perfect example, look at our current voting system. That epic failure demonstrates for all, REGULATION on a state, and federal level is much needed. It's opposite day! Lottery machines flooding minority neighborhoods, while voting machines overflow in Whites, where many of them must drive the proverbial "country mile", just to buy a ticket. Explain that? Meanwhile minorities must endure long lines because they only have a "couple of voting machines" in polling places. Yet once done voting, can go right next door and buy a lottery ticket. WTF?

Privatization is an epic failure. Well, not for the rip-off artist that run them. Hello private prisons. Speaking of such, private prison are nothing but an evolution of slavery. Lives destroyed over a dime bag of weed? Give me a break! Now those that have awakened, put pot on the ballot and won. Just watch how hard they try and privatize that.

And now you are worried about paying your fair share that we all do? If I ran a church, the last thing I would do is ask not to pay my utilities. Your own congregation pays its utilities, why not you? Stop being selfish. Christ told you "render unto Caesar, that is Caesar's". So stop with the pity act. You stick your nose in people's private lives. You protect insurance companies, of all entities, from stopping people from obtaining contraception, and abortions, even in the case of rape and incest.

And now you have the balls to complain about a water bill? What else are you getting away with?

New polling places, unresponsive websites create confusion in Cook County


When you hear the wind-bags on the idiot box, yammering that there is an "Enthusiasm Gap", it makes a person scratch their heads and wonder, what the fuck is wrong with these clowns? Look at what's going on around the country. Long lines, websites crashing, and thanks to you idiots re-redistricting and not informing voters of the proper voting stations, confusion.

It shouldn't have to be this way. We have the national media lying, and intently confusing voters with bullshit polls, and narratives of enthusiasm gaps, just to get people to watch their lame-ass shows. They (National Media) never get their asses on the ground in REAL neighborhoods where voting happens. They sit-back in downtown, or wealthy suburban locals, and yelp "see, it's virtually empty at this polling place". And when they do show up somewhere with long lines, they go into "Insult The Voter Mode" with stupid questions.

Fear not voters. All this will work itself out. Don't give up, and go home. Stay in line and vote. Show the loud-mouth nitwits, there is no enthusiasm gap.

I "tweeted" this when I first saw the headline with a big "I TOLD YOU SO".

What that meant, is when those with the "means" smell the money that can be made, will always do whatever it takes, for squeezing out the little guy, or gal. Just observe. State by State, county by county, city by city, will soon either decriminalize, or flat out legalize marijuana for medicinal, and recreational use.

That my friends, is why money will play the ultimate factor in decisions across the country. In 1936 they just could not wrap their collective, greedy heads around capitalizing on the revenue this plant will produce. They knew little, or just totally disregarded the medical benefits. So they declared it a "Threat". And another dumb move in history was made. See Prohibition.

Well, here we have the big guns moving in on the little guy, or gal. I TOLD YOU SO!

Judge Timothy Evans puts brakes on gun-court plan - Chicago Sun-Times



" But County Commissioner Larry Suffredin said he has doubts. He said the county experimented with gun courts for juveniles and they were scrapped because “they didn’t work very well.”"

Why? You are supposed to charge them as adults if they murdered someone. Now I understand the situations, and circumstances effect when it comes to combating, and adjudicating crime. Possibilities can range from coercion, extortion of a particular youth in the commission of violent acts. Things of this nature should be considered by all sides in criminal cases.

But if you have a hard core criminal, regardless of age, the book, and bookcase must be throw at them. So, if the last experiment didn't "work very well". What was learned from it? That's how we make experiments work. Back to the drawing board for all involved here. If the last experiment "didn't work VERY well". Learn from the mistake that caused the problem, and fix it so that next time, it does work.

Dear County Board President.

Criminals and terrorist don't care how much you tax law-abiding citizens. They will not pay it. They would rather rob and kill their straw purchaser as opposed to paying them.

That's the only problem I have with this "Idea". Criminals, and terrorist don't care about taxes, fees, or however you may want to call this. The only purpose they serve in life, is creating havoc, fear, and death amongst the citizenry. This "Tax" will only affect law-abiding citizens, not these heartless killers. Think about this. In a morbid sort of way, this "Tax" may result in the death of a straw buyer that must increase his or her own price to these ruthless killers.

16-year-old dies after being shot by police in Chatham - Chicago Sun-Times



16, obviously not in school, running the streets "robbing" people. How does such a thing happen? Indifference from the parent or parents? Drug addicted parents? Who facilitated the kids access to weaponry? These are just a few of the questions that beg addressing, if any of us can begin rectifying circumstances of this nature ever happening again.

This country truly needs a system that can, and must track gun sales. Those so-called "straw purchasers" have to be sent a message that once those guns come up missing, they must be reported on that day or night. No more lame excuses. Report it, or pay a hefty fine. We are talking about lives here. Now I'm fully aware the NRA leadership is totally against such legislation. But the dues paying members see things differently. As you nay have heard or read, a majority of members support some type of gun control to help law enforcement keep these weapons out of criminal/terrorist hands. Why the dues-grabbing leaders do not, is anyone's guess. But that is a problem that can be addressed. Sometimes, ordinary people like the NRA members, will stop paying dues in-order to let the dues grabbers know, that they are wrong on certain issues, and legislation. 

Like I've stated, it's just a few questions we can all address, for rectifying circumstances of this nature ever happening again.

3 dead, 13 wounded in shootings since Friday night - Chicago Sun-Times



Still need more evidence these are the acts of terrorist? Violence is a sickness. We all know this. The question remains, how does one treat this sickness? There are multiple methods out there that address treatment. But all you here from politicians, is cut, cut, cut.

One would think with all this cutting, where do they ever find the money to vote themselves a pay raise? I know. They take it from "Sales Taxes", lottery proceeds, and any other fee or fine they can think of. This is something they will never admit. Yet that old adage, "Follow The Money" always applies. They write their laws, and budgets in such legalese language with the hope voters will just throw their hands in the air. But skip over the language, and crunch the numbers. The numbers are always in budget proposals. That's where voters basic math skills come in. To this very day, the Chicago Public Schools have stockpiles of equipment, condiments, and furniture sitting in warehouses. Yet every year, they present a budget. Remember all those "Blue Trash Cans" sitting in a warehouse? Same thing folks.

The next time you hear ANY politician yammering on about "Waste, Fraud, and Abuse", think where it starts. Take away their useless perks, and you will soon see more police on the streets, sentencing guidelines reformed, and strictly enforced, and these cowardly terrorist dealt with. We voters have been cut enough. Time for them to cut themselves.

Kids prosecutors, just ordinary kids playing football. They can't even do that anymore? What will it take? Does it have to spread into your neighborhoods before you finally designate them as terrorist? I'm almost positive the State Department, Justice, FBI, hell even local law enforcement will be pleased if you decided to make such a distinction. Imagine all the tools that will become available should you decide making crimes of this nature a terrorist act?

A terrorist is a terrorist, is a terrorist. It doesn't care what religion it holds, or doesn't. It doesn't care what skin color a person is. It only cares about inflicting horror amongst civilians, through mindless, cowardly tactics. So what are you waiting for?

It truly doesn't matter if your married or single, these people took time, money, and effort to live a comfortable life in those homes. Now, that home isn't worth the price it was paid for. So one can understand the real, almost maddening frustration homeowners feel. Just because they have the means, to pay for a home which value has plummeted, you want to go after them? You stick them with a moniker of "Strategic Defaulter"? How do you explain why your focus isn't on reducing the principle? Better yet inspector, would you pay for a home that isn't worth shit?

How did they spend those two years? Attacking women, attacking voters rights, and "Papers Please" laws just to name a few. The "Family Values" party got egg all over their face when they found one of their members is a "Dead Beat Dad". The others, vowing to kill the Affordable Care Act, signed up not only themselves, but family members also.

They screamed at the moon claiming the "Stimulus Didn't Work". At the same time, hundreds of pictures were taken of those very same screamers, holding Big Stimulus Checks. Now they whisper in locked rooms on how they are going to destroy Medicare, and Medicaid, by giving anyone on it, a coupon. When they bellow, "States Rights", that only means one thing. Your guaranteed Federal Constitutional Rights will be violated. How you ask? Let me quote a guy. "Segregation Now, Segregation Tomorrow, and Segregation Forever." Don't think so? Look at what GOP controlled States are doing. If a gun permit is good enough to vote with, but not any other type of identification, let's say a student Id, or better yet, a military one, I don't think they want you in their State.

Damn! That was a bit more than short and sweet. Yet still, some damn good advice for All Voters. 

Barack Obama and black voters: Returning to the mountaintop

Barack Obama and black voters: Returning to the mountaintop



I found this as an interesting read.

No need for a long diatribe of some of the misconceptions laid within, but the bottom line, it's not just Blacks that need to vote this November, but everyone that just doesn't want a return of policies that failed, and damn-near crippled this country.

Voters also must be well informed on the local ballot initiatives. There are some legislatures trying to "Amend" State Constitutions. Doing such, will have a very serious impact on all American lives, no matter party affiliation.

Turkey warns 'not far' from war after Syrian attack

Turkey warns 'not far' from war after Syrian attack


I'm very interested on how this will play out. It'll be very interesting viewing the Russian reaction when its "Ally" becomes insane, and belligerent and keeps firing into Turkey.

Should history dictate, Russia will hope an escalation during the winter may play in its favor but, as with time, things change, and scenarios. For those of tactical mindedness, and military backgrounds, technology has grown in the proverbial leaps and bounds. Russia would be isolated in its support of this "Killing his own kind" butt-monkey. Who would need "Boots on the ground" when "Drone Technology" continues its own growth?

Turkey will have the support of not only western allies, but other Muslim countries as well. So keep being belligerent Syria. Russia has its own problems.

Larger animals hearing call of the wild in Illinois

Larger animals hearing call of the wild in Illinois


How odd.

Last night my brother saw a baby skunk, and its mother. I'll go out on a limb and say maybe the extensive heat we've been dealing with over the course of the spring, summer, and now fall is having an impact on these animals natural habitat.

In layman's terms, it's a classic search for food and shelter. I would even go out on a further limb, and suggest people in the city and suburbs have animal control on "speed dial".

I've always seen raccoons, and rabbits where I live, but never a skunk. That's a tad much for myself. Time for some repellent spraying here.

Cops seize pot plants near Bishop Ford: 'Big as Christmas trees'

Cops seize pot plants near Bishop Ford: 'Big as Christmas trees'




Hey guys and gals, wake up and end this disastrous, expensive "War On Drugs". You are not going to win. It's apparent you never had any intention of winning it. From my perspective, you only saw it as another way of implementing indentured servitude.

Look at the facts. It's a multi-billion dollar a year industry, no matter what side of the coin you look at it from. It cost taxpayers billions a year. It makes billions a year for the prison industrial complex. States are gutting social services from their budgets because of stealing from taxpayers, teachers, police, and emergency personnel.

Most of these problems can come to a simple solution if you stubborn politicians legalize marijuana.

End transmission.

Nearly 2,400 millionaires got jobless benefits last year



What say you FOX? Ah! Crickets as usual.


A republican senator tried putting a stop to this, yet one of his own party members lumped it with a "Poison Pill Bill" just to stop it dead in its tracks. And they wonder why voters hold them in such disgust.

Oh well, maybe one day they will see the light of day and finally do something right. But as long as you hear those crickets at FOX, don't hold your breath.

Republican money managers emerge in bid to shape Illinois politics

Republican money managers emerge in bid to shape Illinois politics



Let me sum up this article. How to buy a State 101.

This is nothing but blind greed at its worst. If these morally bankrupt people get their way, wages will stagnate reducing the quality of life for all lower, and middle class families in the State.

Their agenda is simple. Oppression. Just look at what is being done in GOP controlled States. The first paragraph in this article explains their agenda, and motivation. Destroy lower, and middle class families.

7 shot, 1 dead in shootings across city

7 shot, 1 dead in shootings across city


One can only wait and see how this "Twitter Campaign" works out. Monday should tell informed readers, and viewers if our elected officials take some of the suggestions seriously.

A very strong, and harsh message must become the norm for these disrespectful punks, I'm sorry, I meant terrorist out and about on the streets across the country.

Only time will tell.

Chicago looks to Twitter for answer to gun problem

Chicago looks to Twitter for answer to gun problem


Really?   #whatifchicago

With all the lawyers you have with the city, county, and state, you all can't sit-down and come up with an iron-clad constitutionally standard legislation of shutting down illegal possession, and sales of guns? You can't sit-down and agree with a lengthy, mandatory sentencing guideline? So your next great brain fart is to throw this turd on the wall, and let the kook-patrol comment? What the fuck are we paying you for?

It's apparent you don't bother reading this little blog. If you did, there are fantastic, constitutionally sound suggestions in the archives. Yet in the interest of fairness, I'll suggest them for you once more. God forbid you have to dig through the archives on this blog to find them.

1. A mandatory twenty year sentence for possession of an illegally obtained firearm in the State of Illinois, with no possibility of parole, or probation.

2. Life in prison for anyone using illegally obtained firearms in the commission of a crime or crimes, with no possibility of parole.

3. Juveniles caught with illegally obtained firearms, will be charged as adults, and be charged as the above.

4. All gun store owners will submit identification information for the sale of firearms, and ammunition  into a national database for law enforcement access.

5. In the event closure of "Open Air" weapons markets cannot be closed, they must comply with rule #4 or be subject to State, and Federal prosecution, with a minimum twenty-five year prison sentence.

6. Have The State Department define them as Terrorist Organizations, and charge all apprehended, under such laws.

Now think people. This is not "Cruel and Unusual Punishment". It is cruel and unusual for these moronic criminals running the streets, terrorizing law abiding citizens, and children.

Do-not-call list is almost like a feel-free-to-call-any-time list


There's no "Teeth" in the law. State Attorney's General, and the Fed must start seriously slapping fines on these annoying ass-clowns. Last time I checked, how in the hell can you offer me a "Free Home Security System", when I have to PAY for the monitoring of such a "Free" system? That isn't free ass-clowns.

If the same ass-clowns call you three times in one day, slap them hard with a five hundred dollar fine, payable directly to the victim. I'll bet you these ass-clowns will stop after that hit. Yet as with the way things are playing out in Congress, certain members will never let such legislation see the light of day. And that is a shame.

We seriously need to hold these elected officials accountable. We elected them to represent us, and not ass-clown corporations, and companies. Start slapping fines on these annoying ass-clowns. And you non-elected, partisan douche-bags on those commissions, yeah I'm talking to you FCC, FTC, FEC, and whatever other retarded acronym you have up your ass. Do your fucking job, and start slapping fines, or hell! even some time behind some bars! WTF are we paying you for? If I was President, I'd take a shot at putting you in the Consumer Protection Agency. Who knows, maybe then we'd get some action out of you freeloading turds.

Sears plans to overhaul health insurance, offering cash instead of plan

Sears plans to overhaul health insurance, offering cash instead of plan

I know it appears like a good step yet, the proverbial "BUT" always looms. What if the insurance company raises rates? Will the company do an increase also? The Affordable Care Act is designed to keep cost down, but we know how greedy some health insurance companies can get.

As per custom, health insurance companies will find, or pull a rabbit out of their collective asses in the effort for justifying cost increases so they can inflate their "Golden Parachutes". They probably will follow the same motto the GOP uses. "I got mine, fuck you."

But hey, you have to give them credit, they are experimenting. So let's see if this works. It may take time for getting the kinks out of it, but at the very least, it's a start. Let's all just hope the health insurance companies don't get super greedy, and find another way around such a move just to fuck customers over.

Clashes erupt as thousands of Greeks protest austerity

Clashes erupt as thousands of Greeks protest austerity



Has anyone noticed how the wealthy are not at all affected by these cuts? When you hear the republicans yak on about the "Low Tax Rates" corporations pay overseas, that just means the wealthy are not paying their fair share. Need proof? Look at this quote from a school teacher over there.

 " "We can't take it anymore - we are bleeding. We can't raise our children like this," said Dina Kokou, a 54-year-old teacher and mother of four who lives on 1,000 euros a month.

"These tax hikes and wage cuts are killing us." 

Do you hear the wealthy saying such? Listen up voters. Read between the lines, and speeches the GOP is telling you. What is going on overseas is the playbook they dream of doing here. When they say "Cut Government Spending", that means all of your services, but not defense, oil, gas. coal, and any other contract, or program their large donors love.

When they speak of "Welfare", who's the biggest recipients? You got it, oil and gas. Cut those subsidies first, before you even utter giving the elderly, and disabled a "Coupon" for health services. Think people. Read that quote, and pass it on. That should be all the proof you need.

Supreme Court to review blood tests of suspected drunken drivers

Supreme Court to review blood tests of suspected drunken drivers


For all the blowhards of "States Rights", don't you think some type of "Uniform System" nationwide be in-place for drunk drivers? Take for instance in some states, when you "refuse" a sobriety test, you go too jail. Why can't that be the norm in all states? It makes sense.

Think back on yesterday's post. I advocated violators of the Constitution should be jailed, so cases such as this, would never get to the Supreme/Corporate Court. The drunk idiots rights were violated when the officer took the clown too the hospital for the "test". The drunk idiot said "NO"! They did it anyway, which resulted in the violation of his constitutional rights of illegal search, and seizure. Case Closed.

The Supreme/Corporate Court should "Rule" in the drunk idiots favor. If they don't, they should resign. Whatever the ruling, the States should take note, and collaborate on a more uniform law for drink drivers. We can't have drunken drivers plowing into pedestrians, or speeding on our roadways and getting a slap on the wrist in one state, and life in prison in another. It simply makes sense.

Chicago court hears arguments on Gov. Walker law

Chicago court hears arguments on Gov. Walker law



Until they start throwing these clowns in prison, politicians, bankers, oil, gas, and coal officials will continue giving the finger at the Constitution, and laws on the books across the States.

Need anymore be said? Why yes. Violation of The Constitution is a "treasonous act". Start filing charges, not lawsuits.

State paying 6-figure pension to ex-teachers union lobbyist

State paying 6-figure pension to ex-teachers union lobbyist



Mother fucker!

This is why politicians piss me off. They fuck teachers, police, and fire personnel over, just so their fuck-buddies can score windfalls. These dicks raided pension funds, passed it all out to friends and family, then turn around and cry broke.

For anyone working in a union occupation, do yourself a favor. Demand your leadership put those "dues" in a community bank, and the state, and union leadership can't touch it.  It's either that, or just stop paying dues until they come to their senses.

Mother fucker!

Senate passes funding bill to avoid October 1 government shutdown

Senate passes funding bill to avoid October 1 government shutdown


I'm simply mystified at why certain voters let no account, unprofessional, Tea Party Republicans take over the House of Representatives, and damn-near the Senate. I might as well throw in State Governorship's, and legislatures also. My question for those voters, is this really what you voted for? Why would you allow them to take away equal pay, health care, fixing crumbling roads, bridges, schools, adding more police, and fire professionals, cutting essential services, attempting blocking your rights at voting, and making it difficult for your kids to obtain higher education?

Please explain that. They said elect us, and we will make sure you still will go broke or die, once we take affordable health care away from you. Please explain what business is it of theirs, when it comes to women's health choices? What kind of a sick person thinks it's a good idea to have women undergo a "Vaginal Probe"? Would that same sick individual let his spouse go through such? Can you explain if any of their kids graduated college, and had to move back home with them? And why is it okay for their kids to stay on the health care plans we pay for, but you can't?

What in the name of God were you thinking when you voted for them? I hope you realize by now, they are not only laughing, but spitting in your face when you did that. There is still a way for fixing this. Vote them out. Punch a straight democratic ticket. Read, and comprehend the petitions, and referendums also on the ballots. Don't make the same mistake twice just because a Black man is in the oval office. Yes, that's right, I said it. I'm not alone in that thinking. When you vote against a Jobs Bill that will help our brother's and sister's wearing the uniform, something very vile resides in your heart.

Vote for Social Security, Medicare, Affordable Health Care, Affordable Higher Education, Jobs, Transportation, And Clean Energy. Vote for never turning our backs on our veterans, and 9/11 responders. Vote a straight democratic ticket. Last but not least. If there is a douche-bag on the ballot, vote for the man or woman, that will represent you, and not Corporate America.

One day you depleted, brain-cell politicians will wake up. Just look at all that extra revenue your county could have had. And from reading the article, it appears they were too busy taking care of the plants to do any violent crimes. Well, so far.

Legalize it politicians. In the real world, we call it common sense.

Prosecutors hope 2008 killings stiffen drug dealer's sentence

Prosecutors hope 2008 killings stiffen drug dealer's sentence


Illinois lawmakers wake up.

Marijuana isn't your problem. It's these dope dealing douche-bags running the streets. You have to come together and tighten up the sentencing guidelines in this State. It's common sense. In an unrelated article, a pastor gets "10 years" for taking a "minor across multiple state lines to have sex". What is wrong with you people? That should have been an automatic 20. The pastor, and gang members are threats to the safety of children, and should be dealt with in an appropriate fashion of ZERO Tolerance.

I get the old "Situations and Circumstances" message, but gang member drug dealers? No way. They are merchants of death and destruction. You lawmakers need a double look at the current sentencing guidelines, and ensure the punishment fits the crime. It's very simple when you do the right thing, and have Zero Tolerance for scum of this nature.

Study finds tumors in rats fed on Monsanto's GM corn

Study finds tumors in rats fed on Monsanto's GM corn


Can anyone explain to me why these corporations are hell bent on killing us? Are they in collusion with pharmaceutical companies to make us ill, and profit from it? If they continue down this path of fucking with food, people will go back to an agricultural society and begin growing our own.

I guess we will just find a farmer that doesn't fuck with Monsanto and buy seeds from him, or her.
