Liberals seem to always want the government to do something when it is the individuals responsibility.




It isn't the land making Chicago so dangerous. It is the "citizens".

And a good history of the Vietnam War will relate that many of the ordinance men were black and they would sometimes write messages on the bombs for the Viet Cong before attaching them to the aircraft..

That's cute. But you have it wrong. Liberals support birth control & are pro choice. It's really very simple.

It's odd that Chicago is never a good example of anything:

Gun control, weather, taxes, crime, traffic, budget deficit, water pollution, imminent domain takeovers (Miggs airport), asian carp, corrupt politicians, politicians avoiding prison terms, presidential ethics, ...

What topic was missed?

Is there anything positive about Chicago?

Bangers killing each other doesn't pull at my heart strings.

Why I have a problem with Chigago shootings is that these shootings become statistics.

These statistics are used to make anti gun arguments against law abiding gun owners.

I've spent three years trying to organize a City-Data concerned conservative citizen's march to the bad Chicago neigherborhoods but none the keyboard warriors want to join me.

They just want to release murder totals like they're boffo box office numbers.

Do you have a plan to do something when the march arrives? Will we knock on doors and ask if we can paint a fence, clean up trash, go shopping for a few families, steer kids away from needles? Will we be wearing bullet proof vests while passing 40 ouncers around? It sounds like a great idea but without a plan it wouldn't be much more than a tourist trip to the third world.

So you have not marched either, I wonder why?
