This is your favorite argument, if obama passes a state law, did it not include Chicago? Do you know how ignorant that sounds.....

I passed a "state" law, however, it does not include Chicago....

Basically they are the same area. You could trow a rock from Chicago and probably hit Gary by accident.
he tri-state area is usually just called "Chicago" even though there are 3 states that converge at that spot. Memphis Tennessee has the same problem, even worse as 4 state lines are within 20 miles of each
other.

But the point is that Gary doesn't have to obey Illinois law.

Haha, again with the 71L.....I proved you wrong on that a long time ago, I know it gets hard to keep up when you lie so much, but trust me old timer, you cannot get anything past me.
B.S....this is only because Obama is president. And the gun violence in Chicago has nothing to do with Obama.

And yea...again with the 71L. You didn't prove me wrong, you only claimed that I was wrong about that. Besides, I told you that I was joking...so maybe i was right since its apparently touching a nerve.

Get anything past YOU? LMAO...who in the hell are you that I should try to "get anything past" you? Uhhhh...you ain't nobody to me dude. Let some air out of that noggin

Oh, I don't know.....maybe because a president by the name of Obama hails from there, and the conservatives think he's some kind of messiah or something? I mean, they(conservatives) are always referring to him as the messiah, and isn't the messiah supposed to bring world peace when he returns?

Make up your mind. Is he personally responsible for all murder in Chicago or not?

They can't deal with it. Just seeing his face on tv it the mention of his name throws them into a rage. They can't suppress it. The hate is too palpable.

Ad hominem's are usually the last of your defenses when you've spent all of your best ammo in your arsenal on the battle. The conservatives, bless their hearts, keep trying their best to stick something to the president, but what they're trying to stick to him just doesn't seem to want to stick! You gotta feel sorry for the lil'buggers, some times.
