Durbin, Oberweis Clash Over Gun Control, Taxes In Meeting WIth Tribune Editorial Board « CBS Chicago


Allow me to translate this meeting/discussion. The republican candidate will only help the rich with more taxpayer giveaways. The democratic candidate actually wants to do constructive work for the people of this state.

When anyone says "I don't think universal background checks will work.", is simply stupid. Now it's up to you voters. Here's your choice. A person that actually wants to work on improving the state, or an oblivious tool for the corporations and gun lobby? Oh, I almost forgot to mention, the GOP guy is a racist also.

Five Killed, 43 Wounded In Weekend Shootings In Chicago « CBS Chicago


It's getting to a point that any hope from a politician standing up and introducing legislation dealing with this madness, becomes futile. It also confirms a mindset they only care about themselves and not law abiding constituents. In the end, politicians think amongst themselves, it's just Black and Brown animals with gang ties killing each other off, so why bother?

How quickly they forget children get caught in the crossfire.

This isn't going to slow down because our elected officials continue doing nothing. The police can only do so much. You guys and gals (politicians) need to get off your asses and pass legislation dealing with this horror.

Just because it isn't happening in your neck of the woods yet, it doesn't give you the right for being dismissive. We know your mindset. You need to check it. We need cameras on every intersection, even down residential streets. Don't give me that privacy argument either. These are PUBLIC streets and sidewalks. If you think a camera is peeping into your windows, buy some fucking curtains or blinds.

Now, back to you do nothing politicians. Your mindset of it's a Black and Brown thing is bullshit. Your policies put people in this horrible situation. How you ask? Jobs and educational opportunities. The bulk of residents need automobiles for driving out to the suburbs for decent employment. Closing schools doesn't help either. People take minimum wage jobs to prevent from sleeping in parks, or anywhere. Yet you politicians listen to the slave drivers and refuse increasing the wages. Show me a Heroin field in the city? You can't. What are you doing to stop it from coming in the city? Nothing. Now get off your asses and pass legislation dealing with this horror.

Where's the outraged aldermen/women, Mayor, and State legislators? No where.

Meanwhile our tax dollars are wasted. Just because you elected officials "THINK" we don't have the funds for running against you, think twice. There's this thing out there called the internet, and I hear it's pretty good at raising funds for people like us. Just remember what the Supreme Corporate Court did. "Money is speech". Here's the deal folks. We all know the websites that take donations for any effort. We also know somewhere, someone in this country is thinking about doing it so they can kick a do-nothing politician out of office. We also know the smug media can't fathom a person doing a thing like this until, they hit the millions of dollars mark. That's when they freak out and try sticking a camera in your face asking the proverbial dumb question; why you doing this? You respond, see headline above fuck-nuts.

Oh where oh where are our tax money wasting elected officials? No where.

2 dead, 21 wounded in shootings across Chicago since Friday night - Chicago Sun-Times


Look, enough is enough. We need a national database on gun purchases. This is the only way we can effectively scare the shit out of the infamous straw buyer. We have to make this idiot think twice before going to open air gun shows, and Indiana for making those buys. I don't give a giant rats ass what the NRA and any other zealot gun lobbyist says. This craziness must end.

You know what you don't hear or see on your local news? A person on camera saying their home or apartment was broken into and guns were stolen. Why is that? Because it rarely happens. Straw buyers are semi-smart enough to not report stolen guns. They only do it when a gun is recovered. By then, it's too late and they only get a slap on the wrist like the shooter he let use the gun. They play dumb. So let's up the ante. If a recovered gun that wasn't reported stolen been used in a shooting, give the straw buyer an accessory to murder charge.

I'm honestly getting fed up with our elected officials doing nothing about this problem. The best idiotic solution they came up with is arming untrained civilians to carry guns. What the fuck! No sentencing reform, no magazine capacity ban, just here ya go folks pay a ton of money to carry a gun, that should calm your fears. This craziness must end.  

Second West Garfield Park Shooting In 4 hours Leaves Three More Wounded « CBS Chicago

Second West Garfield Park Shooting In 4 hours Leaves Three More Wounded « CBS Chicago


And the shooter is still on the loose because the idiots he shot refuse to turn this menace in.

Going hypothetical here. So the police respond to the first shooting, sending a platoon sized column. Meanwhile this ass-clown runs a block or two, while all the police assigned to that area are collecting evidence and standing around "securing the crime scene", and shoots more where there are no police. Go figure right? One would think at the very least a car would be patrolling looking for the ass-clown. Are there not cameras in this area?

Not matter the amount of hypothetical scenarios one can spin, it's up to the "victims", sorry, I meant "documented gang members" to stop being scared or paralyzed for life idiots and turn all menace to society in.

"A documented gang member." Is this the reason none of our elected officials are pushing sentencing guideline reform? We all know they are "documented gang members", but the real question we want answered is , why are they on the streets? They have all committed felonies right? So why are they on the streets?

Another story with many questions.

Where did he get the gun? Is it a registered firearm? Is it an illegal firearm? Will the owner be charged? Why wasn't the bully also charged, or disciplined? Did the police and principle talk to the bully and warn him, next time it might be loaded?

One can bet that bully was lucky the kid in question had the intelligence not to load the gun. We can guess from the headline he only meant to scare the shit out of his bully, because the school wasn't doing jack-shit in shutting the bully down. That should be a wake-up call for the school. Who knows what will happen next time. It may just very well be loaded.

And still no sentencing guideline reform mentioned by any politician. I told you they don't care until a bullet hits the wrong colored person. Then, and only then will you see a replay of the flawed, biased get tough on crack laws.

1 Dead, 10 Wounded In Weekend Shootings Across Chicago « CBS Chicago


I'm coming under the impression our elected officials honestly don't care about this menace simply because most of the victims are "documented gang members", and the occasional innocent civilian gets caught in the crossfire. That's an old philosophy of "let them kill each other off", that simply doesn't wash.

Gangs have been around since humans left their mud-huts and began building cities. They have never been eradicated, just subdued. These days, we are not even making feeble attempts at subduing them. Why you ask? It's simple. They are not organized. Once they do that, it sends fear down the spine of White America. Then, and only then will you see a call for action.

When the Black Panthers got organized it was for a good reason. They go fed up with being brutalized by police gangs, and decided protecting and serving their community was the only option. Once that happened, White America panicked, and gun reform was the rage. Even during slavery, the biggest fear of White America was a person of color holding a gun. They feared that, because in the back of their minds, with all the brutalization they have inflicted on "others", those guns would be turned on them.

But a campaign of disorganization was undertook for years. The gangs have now turned the weapons upon themselves, and White America sticks to that old philosophy of "let them kill each other off". It just doesn't wash folks. Never has, never will.

Madness Continues

Makes you wonder how many were killed and wounded during Labor day weekend in 1963? Yesterday they polished up the old turd and said "shootings were down compared to 1963." They forgot the tally for the 1963 labor day weekend. Every time they trot this turd of a statistic out, the very next headline has multiple shootings. Maybe the superintendent of police should run for office. At the very least, he knows what the problem is unlike those we elect.  

Chicago Murder Numbers Through August Lowest Since 1963 « CBS Chicago

Chicago Murder Numbers Through August Lowest Since 1963 « CBS Chicago


Don't you love it when they polish, and trot out this turd? What, is this supposed to make us feel good? How many got shot over the weekend compared to 1963? In the end, this doesn't mean shit when our elected leaders refuse fixing our broken sentencing guidelines, and gun laws.

This country needs uniformity. Simply put. A universal background check, and sentencing guideline system. Wounding, or killing a person with an illegally obtained firearm should carry the same penalty across state lines. No exceptions, no excuses. I'm sure we can all agree on that no matter your political persuasion. If not, the turd will continue being polished and trotted out.
