Meanwhile, our local politicians continue ignoring the carnage. Are you still wondering why?

Meanwhile, our politicians continue ignoring the carnage. Still wondering why the top cop is pissed?

Sure, we have some strict gun laws but, our surrounding states don't. Our criminal justice system is beyond fucked up by allowing violent repeat offenders out early. Congress and state legislators refuse re-visiting the mandatory minimum laws on the books that tie the hands of judges across the country. There's many more issues that can be listed, but this should give you some insight on why the top cop is pissed.

In the event you missed it, the top cop ripped lawmakers again. He basically said do your fucking job and pass some legislation dealing with your revolving door policy on repeat offenders. He's not alone. One of those dick-bags was just recently released from jail and managed getting his hands on a gun.

That's no surprise here. We have some of the weakest politicians in this country passing this "mandatory minimum" bullshit legislation tying judges hands. Both of the offenders had prior records. Why were they allowed back on our streets? How did a douche released last week, get his hands on a gun?

Meanwhile, our local politicians remain silent. As I've stated in the past, these gutless politicians will continue ignoring this until it spreads into more affluent communities. And sadly, that's a damn shame. But, that's the way it is folks until you begin voting these gutless politicians out.

4 Dead, 16 Wounded In Chicago Weekend Shootings

4 Dead, 16 Wounded In Chicago Weekend Shootings:



Like many of you I'm sick of these headlines and the feeble response from our elected officials. We also are aware the police can't just round up these domestic terrorist. There's this thing called the constitution. The bums must commit a crime so they can be arrested. The city refusal in installing cameras on every city block is shameful. You also must take into consideration the list of "documented gang members" the police have and wonder why are they not under 24/7 surveillance. Odd isn't it?

Meanwhile, our local politicians continue ignoring the carnage. Still wondering why?

You really don't need to. The data is there. Begin your research with the "Willie Lynch Papers". Compare it with today's policies with regards towards housing and education. Next, research the shift from manufacturing towards retail industrialization, and the swift downward spiral of wages. From there, research the proliferation of  drugs in urban communities.

After you have done these small steps, you should never wonder why ever again.

Apparently the police have more rounding up on their schedule. Meanwhile, the mayor and city council are still ignoring the carnage. At least the useless governor signed a bill going after straw buyers. So how's your day going?

Well I'll be damned! The politicians finally got off their asses and went after the infamous straw buyer. At least it's a start.

Wow! I counted 11 shootings since Friday into Saturday from the second link alone. It seems those domestic terrorists slipped through the cracks. Meanwhile, not one politician is stepping up and changing the sentencing guideline laws that will charge these douche-bags as domestic terrorist. Are you still wondering why?

10 wounded in shootings Thursday on South, West sides:



My favorite website for this grim information decided ignoring this carnage is best for readers. I find it very odd the media is acting like our politicians by ignoring this madness. The only way any action can come about is for our newspapers online and print, is placing these grim headlines on their front page everyday. Local readers will demand action after seeing why our politicians continue ignoring this.

In case you missed it, the top cop here called for help from our down state lawmakers. Good luck with that. I did find his comment about leadership interesting. He basically questioned how one could call themselves "leaders" with all this violence happening? Good point.

Now we wait and see if he gets a response.

9 Killed, 43 Wounded In Weekend Shootings Across Chicago

9 Killed, 43 Wounded In Weekend Shootings Across Chicago:



They will not stop this madness unless our lawmakers get serious about sentencing guideline reform. These are domestic terrorist, not gang-bangers. These senseless shooting deserve nothing but life in prison terms. The infamous "Straw Buyer" when caught, should receive a maximum 25 years with an option for a life sentence if a death is involved. We need legislation allowing states the ability in suing states with weaker gun laws. Why are you lawmakers doing nothing?

This is a small step in dealing with this madness. Doing nothing only makes things worse. So again, I ask our lawmakers, why are you sitting on your collective asses doing nothing?

Police: 8 Killed, 26 Wounded In Weekend Shootings Across Chicago

Police: 8 Killed, 26 Wounded In Weekend Shootings Across Chicago:


Meanwhile, nothing is being done. It appears our lawmakers have the old "let them kill each other off mindset". That approach has never worked, it does the opposite, it increases the problem as more innocent civilians get caught in the crossfire.

And when innocent civilians get caught in the crossfire, that increases voter anger. That's a lesson politicians seem to never learn. So what will it be lawmakers? Do nothing? Or piss off voters?

Angry Emanuel Rips 'Gang-Bangers' For Shooting Children:



Are you fucking kidding me? You of all people want to "know how gang-bangers with long criminal records are back on the streets"? Let's see. There's the sentencing guideline law you dumb-fucks passed. Ever though of revisiting that? There's this elected official or two call county and state prosecutors. Ever thought of giving them a call? Has a "gang-banger" called a parent or grandparent of a shooting victim? What the fuck kind of thought process is that? Of course not you idiot. That's the best you got?

There's a county commissioner that called for these "gang-bangers" to be charged as domestic terrorist. Ever thought of sitting down and crafting legislation with him? Let me answer that for you. Hell no. What are you doing about the flow of guns coming from Indiana and other states surrounding us? Let me answer that for you. Not a damn thing. So "ripping gang-bangers for not calling a parent or grandparent" is the best you got? I'm speechless.

2 Dead, 7 Wounded In Wednesday Shootings Across Chicago:



The grim reaper never sleeps. Meanwhile, our indifferent politicians and church leaders still don't give a damn. If it doesn't affect them, why should they care? That's the feeling all citizens in these impoverished neighborhoods hold. It's not a myth. It's a fact.

No jobs. No decent educational system. No equal criminal justice system. Nothing. Well, wait a second. They did raise taxes on us. Yeah, that will surely address the problem. Are you still wondering why?

Two Wounded In Lakeview Shooting

Two Wounded In Lakeview Shooting:


Boy I hate being a semi-good prognosticator. A few blogs ago I said this violence will spread and that will be the only motivating force that will make lawmakers act.

As long as the Blacks and Browns were killing themselves, lawmakers didn't care. Now, just like I predicted, its spreading into more affluent neighborhoods. If this trend continues, watch for a flood of legislation.

Meanwhile, nothing is being done. Just out of curiosity, does the parents of that 15 year old have an explanation on why the kid was out past curfew? Will the police charge him for curfew violation? Like you, I'm wondering why.

I've noticed no mass protest led by church leaders at city hall or downstate. I've noticed no politician introducing no legislation dealing with the influx of guns in this state. I've noticed no assault weapons ban, no closing the gun show loophole, no repealing of this stupid open/concealed carry laws, and I've noticed no repeal of holding gun manufactures' libel. Are you still wondering why?
