Governor Expected To Get Education Funding Plan, Issue Prompt Veto

Governor Expected To Get Education Funding Plan, Issue Prompt Veto:



God forbid this governor would ever allow funding education for people of color in Chicago. That would go against all his racist beliefs. But hey, that's the message he runs on and sadly the people downstate, except the people of color, fall for that crap every time.

Maybe this governor should take a look at our neighbor in Oak Park. The citizens there have no qualms about a property tax enacted recently that will continue funding public education, infrastructure, and other social services the village may need. You see governor, Oak Park is ethnically diverse and they know that a "house divided cannot stand". Those people don't fall for the racial divide crap.

4-year-old boy among 24 people shot in Chicago weekend violence:



How odd. The other local news source only counted 14 shot. I hope they are not doing the see no evil, speak no evil, hear no evil routine. That would be a major disservice for the people of this city. It's bad enough our politicians continue turning a blind eye. With that being said, let's not disappoint the citizenry local media. We need you to be fair and informative of the things going on here.

Cicero cop shooting tied to gun Chicago P.D. should have destroyed

Cicero cop shooting tied to gun Chicago P.D. should have destroyed



Holy shit! Sorry, I was being sarcastic. We know how that gun found its way back on the streets. It was done by a dirty cop or his/her civilian equivalent that never signed that gun into where it should have been stored. It's as simple as that. Now, what are you going to do about it Chicago Police? Are you going to find out and discipline that asshole that did this? Or, are you just going to let it slide? How do you expect us civilians to ever trust you when you can't even clean up your own house? I'll just sit and wait to see if anyone is fired and charged with this felony offense. Yet, as sarcastic as I am, I'm betting this is the last you hear of this heinous crime. Are you still wondering why?

400 dead and it isn't even the end of the month. We already know the number wounded is in the thousands, and still our mayor and governor haven't held a joint press conference with a plan dealing with is madness. Are you still wondering why?

I wonder how long will it take for those people to ever see that money returned? The sad part about the entire thing, this jerk only gets a slap on the wrist just like a repeat gun offender. Sentencing guideline reform anyone?

I'm betting the idiots caught in the second link have prior felony convictions. That shouldn't come as no surprise for many of us. All we can do is hope these idiot politicians fix the sentencing guidelines, and give discretion back to the courts and ending the current revolving door policy in-place now. As far as the main link, once again it's business as usual with the mayor and governor as they have yet to hold a joint press conference detailing a comprehensive plan attacking this carnage.

Three articles with one solution for pushing these horrific shootings down, jobs. But let's be real about the type of jobs we are talking here. They are all low paying retail jobs. Now if you are talking about law enforcement, teaching, and other social services you are looking at a multi-year delay in fulfillment because they require college degrees.

In a nutshell, both the former and current top cop explained why this is happening. “You don’t erase decades of inappropriate treatment in a year, “You just don’t." The guy running for governor cites small business opportunities yet fails addressing the fact that banks will not lend money to certain people of color. Example: Prior to the Vietnam war Blacks owned many small "Mom & Pop stores".  When the war ended, they were pushed out by banks and the loans were given to, you guessed it. Fast forward to the middle east. The same shit happened again. Go into any black community and just look at the Muslim owned stores. The only alternative is getting that college degree so these neighborhoods can finally stabilize. But how do you do that? Well, you stop fucking around and fully fund public education with quality teachers.

10 Shot In Chicago, 1 Fatally, Since Friday Night

10 Shot In Chicago, 1 Fatally, Since Friday Night:



I wonder what happened with that "known gang member list" the police have? I ask because we know these fuckers are repeat offenders. So, why can't the police check them on the street for gunshot residue? The federal agents are loaning them a mobile forensic lab, so why not round them up and test them? Another thing the city could do, is request some money from congress and ask residents if they want cameras installed on their homes or apartments for free? I bet many residents will jump at such an offer. It just never hurts to ask.

10 Killed, 41 Wounded In Weekend Shootings Across Chicago

10 Killed, 41 Wounded In Weekend Shootings Across Chicago:



Like I've stated before, this is happening all across the country. The politicians could care less. Go into those neighborhoods and look around. What's there? A few family owned stores by people that don't even live there. Fast food joints. If they are lucky, they may have a nationally known grocer around. All the distribution centers and warehouses are out in the suburbs and public transportation is a nightmare. The politicians steal from public education funding. Everyone knows when there are no jobs, crime breeds. How many marijuana or poppy fields have you seen in an inner city? None. This is the end result when you steal from hard working taxpayers so you can give wealthy donors a tax cut. No money for public education. No money for repairing streets, highways, and bridges. Are you still wondering why?

9-year-old boy among 10 dead, 37 wounded in weekend shootings

9-year-old boy among 10 dead, 37 wounded in weekend shootings:


I know, I know, everyday you must awake with headlines of utter, senseless, stupidity. Yet, go check out any local newspaper across the nation, and you will witness this city, isn't alone in utter, senseless, stupidity. As a matter of fact, our neighbor west of Illinois leads the nation in utter, senseless, stupidity. See for yourself: http://www.worldatlas.com/articles/most-dangerous-cities-in-the-united-states.html

Disgusting isn't it? Yet, what can be done about this when your very own state and federal legislators tie the hands of law enforcement? Open carry, concealed carry, stand your ground, and no universal background checks or gun owner database. We need universal background checks and a gun owner database. Why? It helps law enforcement track down stolen guns and catch offenders quicker. Yet, the minute these same "states rights" republican lawmakers get federal power, it's give us all your private voter information and fuck your states rights. If that isn't utterly senseless and stupid, I'm stumped at why you continue voting for these ghoulish lunatics?

4 Killed, 15 Wounded In Thursday Shootings Across Chicago

4 Killed, 15 Wounded In Thursday Shootings Across Chicago:



Meanwhile, the mayor, governor, and the rest of our politicians continue ignoring the carnage. They have only passed one bill dealing with repeat gun offenders. There's nothing planned for the infamous straw buyer or, those individuals running across state lines with weaker gun laws from flooding the city. Why isn't there a major push for universal background checks? Why are the gun show loopholes still open? And lastly, are you still wondering why?

Police: Man shot to death in Lawndale

Police: Man shot to death in Lawndale:



By my count, that's one dead and five wounded yesterday. If there's any good news from all of this it's that I've noticed the publications of arrest made. That could be from the "mobile ballistics lab" running around the city. Meanwhile, our governor and mayor still haven't held a joint press conference laying out a plan/legislation combatting this menace. Are you still wondering why?

This is a situation where the parents must face the full brunt of justice. There's no excuse for this period. The life of a child has just been destroyed because of piss-poor parenting. Yet, we all know the reasons why situations of this nature appear. Oh well.

9 Wounded In Chicago Shootings Since Friday Evening:


You can add six (6) more just from today (Sunday) and it isn't even noon. But you can rest assured our mayor and governor continue not caring or coming up with any legislation that will end this madness. Oh sure they passed some repeat gun offender bill but, if you read the news yesterday, a fucking repeat gun offender just got bail for selling another repeat gun offender a fucking gun used to shoot two cops. Are you still wondering why?

8 Wounded In Shootings Since Friday Evening

8 Wounded In Shootings Since Friday Evening:


Meanwhile, our governor and mayor still haven't held a joint press conference explaining how they will tackle this problem. The county is planning layoffs of sheriff deputies if their "soda tax" blocked. If they only would legalize and tax marijuana their budget problems would slowly disappear. But, we know our politicians will find a way to fuck that up. Just look at how they screwed up the lottery.

When your state has figured out a way to generate income that will shore up infrastructure, fund education, and keep pensions stable, you don't sell it off to a private company that only has profit as its motivating goal. If they ever legalize and tax marijuana, watch them blow it just like the lottery.

Like that will really deter these maniacs. You rounded up damn near sixty of these fuck-nuts prior to the 4th of July and there still was over a 100 people shot. A drunk ass woman shoved a police commander in the face at the "Taste". Oh well. You can only do so much when the governor and mayor refuse helping you out.

Damn! Even with the round-up police conducted these mini-terrorist still went on their rampage. Oh well, since it's obvious our governor and mayor could care less, because they still haven't held a joint press conference on how they will end this cycle of violence. We , the common people of this state know all it takes is quality education and jobs. Maybe one day, those two butt-heads will figure that out.

Jesus. I took a day off Monday because my neighbors rotted tree broke off and fell in my backyard cutting power Sunday evening. Yet that small matter doesn't effect these super idiots firing fucking bullets into the air. Meanwhile, the other super idiots continue their very own rampage throughout the city, and still no joint press conference on how they will deal with this sickness. Still wondering why?

You can add 7 more wounded with that sickening tally. This article counted the first 3 shot, one killed for Sunday and not the other 7 that got capped as the day rolled on.
