Could it be a false story from a website that likes spreading false stories? That can't be true, Cons trust them so much.
Took me all of less than 5 minutes to find a link to CBS about that very same story.
The MSM really has you hooked that if it's not from one of their "trusted" sites then it must be made up and false.
Way to go BO! The proof is starting to poor in, big government always losses. And btw democrats, are you starting to realize taxing the 'bad' rich is not going to work? What happens when there are no wealthy left to tax?
I hope the gun laws are helping people there sleep at night. Especially when their police officers will be riding to the scene of the crime on bicycles.

Dixmoor is about 1 square mile in size with its own Police, Fire Fighting and School System which is nuts. It was created back in the 20's and proximity to manufacturing plants in the greater area employed most residents. Those jobs are long gone. Most properties are owned by retired folk on fixed incomes or investor owned and occupied by low income renters.
When people either can't or won't pay more property taxes, the municipality can't pay its bills. Municipalities are forced to make drastic spending cuts and Police, Firefighters and teachers are laid off. Services are cut to the bone.
This has been happening all over the U.S. for the past 35+/- years. Those areas of Detroit ( in Romney's home state) that are not impoverished pay out of pocket for private security because the Detroit Police force is tapped out.
