Keep marching and keep chanting, “Black lives matter.” Do they? Not in Chicago. Thanks to Toejam for the link.
The 4th of July weekend in Chicago was so violent, the chief of police despaired about a “broken system” leading to violent criminals escaping justice. Police superintendent Garry McCarthy surveyed the carnage over the holidays that resulted in 7 dead – including a 7-year-old boy caught in the crossfire – and 40 wounded, and commented that “[c]riminals don’t feel the repercussions of the justice system.”
Those are Baghdad-like numbers, and despite an increase in police presence on the streets, the bloodshed just keeps getting worse.
Let us not forget that Chicago has some of the most restrictive gun laws in the country.
From CNN
(CNN)When a city has seven killings in two days, including the death of a 7-year-old boy, something is systemically wrong.
That’s what Chicago’s police chief said after a spate of bloodshed that tormented the city over the weekend.“We need to repair a broken system,” Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy told reporters Sunday. “Criminals don’t feel the repercussions of the justice system.”
Take, for example, the death of 7-year-old Amari Brown. McCarthy said the boy was the unintended victim of bullet meant for his father, a ranking gang member.
The system failed Amari, the police chief said. Amari’s father, who has been arrested 45 times and has a lengthy criminal record, should not have been on the streets, McCarthy said.
WTF? Arrested 45 freakin’ times? WTF was this dude doing out of jail? He should have been doing life at Marion. Un-freakin’-believable. But black lives matter.
“If Mr. Brown is in custody, his son is alive,” McCarthy said.
But that’s racist to put this dude in jail. Black “leaders” keep screaming that there are too many black men in jail. We’re just doing what they want by releasing these thugs. Isn’t it ironic that the people who are harmed the most by these policies of releasing black thugs are black? And let’s keep in mind that Chicago has been run by Dimocrats forever.
So, do black lives really matter? Only when a white person or a “white Hispanic” kills one. And then when that happens the thug is elevated to saint status like thug in training St. Trayvon of Skittles, the son Oblunder could have had, or the “gentle giant” St. Michael of Swisher Sweets. The Obungler administration couldn’t send anyone to Margaret Thatcher’s funeral but three members of the Obumbler administration attended St. Michael’s funeral. You people are getting just what you asked for. Good and hard. It gives me a schadenboner.
Are you aware that in the Dimocrat stronghold of Chicago with its restrictive gun laws someone is shot every 3:18 hours and someone is murdered every 19:03 hours? Stats here. It’s also a delicious irony that blacks are doing far worse under the Obamessiah than they did under Jimmah C., Reagan, Bush 41, BJ, and Bush 43. See what voting for the first black president got you? Record black unemployment. Another shadenboner.
What have 50 years of voting for Dimocrats got you? You’re poor, uneducated and dependent upon the gummint. As I keep saying, if the KKK had tried to come up with policies to break up the black family and keep blacks poor and uneducated, they could have not done a better job than today’s Dimocrat Party. The KKK was the militant wing of the Dimocrat Party. The Dimocrats have pulled off a really good con job by convincing blacks that the KKK was Republican. It wasn’t. There were Dimocrats under those white sheets. And the Dimocrat Party has been aided and abetted by the useful idiots in the Congressional Black Caucus. By the way, MLK was a Republican. Chew on that!
But I digress.
So is the problem too many guns or a failed justice system? Obviously, something is radically wrong when a thug like Mr. Brown walks the streets with impunity, taking part in gang activity that may have resulted in the attempt on his life and cost of the life of his young son. You have to wonder about advocates of criminal justice reform whose agitation against sending black men to jail had any effect in this case.
Crime rates dropped dramatically because we used to take violent criminals and put them away. Minimum sentences, stiffer parole requirements, and other measures have come under attack because too many black men are in jail, we’re told. I don’t care about the color of the thug; I just want him off the streets. It may be that playing racial politics with the criminal justice system is contributing to the shocking rise in violence. If it is, we’ll probably never hear about it.
In Guiliani’s and Bllomberg’s New York they had a “stop and frisk” policy which was racist and DeBlasio has halted it. Watch crime rates go up.
To you Black Lives Matter dipshits, I’ll believe that black lives matter when you start acting like black lives matter and quit killing each other. Until then STFU and quit waving your stupid signs because I don’t really give a flying fuck!
There was a Yahoo article on Detroit. A poster under the comments section quoted George Will and said he was right, it was about morality or the lack of it. That seems to be it. The loss of family and morality in this country as a whole. You said it earlier Denny we are witnessing the decline of America. You may not be around to see the end, but I at 53 probably will. We had a good run, its just sad it had to end this way.
I believe that Barry Obammy’s “hometown”, has the toughest gun laws in the USA. Gee, those gun laws are really working out well, right demoncrats?
at the end of obamas run i will bet he pardons johhny taliban.
Black lives matter.
Pavement ape lives don’t.
Thanks you, Denny and TJ. Too bad that only rational folks will get this concept.
It is all about the Heroin wars. Jesse Jackson was allied with the P-Stone rangers (major drug gang). Last summer Louis Farrakhan (whose mosque was built by Qaddafi) was preaching to his followers that they needed to rely on the gangs for protection. Al Sharpton said he was going to live on the west side of Chicago for a year. Didn’t last a week.
Now Puerto Rico is sending heroin addicts to Chicago with one way tickets. The Democrat machine needs more customers.

How to get rid of ants. Get a can of black spray paint. Stir up the ant nest with a stick. When the ants come out to see WTF is going on, spray the paint on them. The ants will then discover that they live in a black neighborhood and start killing each other.
