Just another weekend in Chicago.

The richest country on earth with 3rd world war zones.

That's right, yet you called it complex.

There's nothing complex about it. We have self-victimized lazy people with no fathers who want to sell drugs and join gangs instead of earning an honest living.

Let's ask African immigrants who fled genocide, what they think about this Black on black crime stupidity in a 1st world country. They laugh at it.

Yes, there is a lot of gang violence, but I think we are way to quick to point fingers at that and then just forget about it.

Disputes, these are just in the last month. And in the first incident, you can see that this person already had an arrest record, due to the fact that they had a mug shot at the ready.
My college roomate was from that part of Chicago, I know the city pretty well.

Chicago has had multiple murders already this year by guys out on "cashless bail" for violent felonies so that is not surprising at all.

I find it ironic because the truth is gangs and poverty are root causes (along with social breakdown). If you want some trope that is just thrown out and forgotten about, it's guns.

Why? Look at these items and ask yourself:
1. Who am I blaming and do they vote in my area.
2. How much will it cost.

Guns? Outsiders, rural areas, other states and best of all Republicans. Cost is free.

Gangs? Constituents, cost is expensive.

Poverty etc? Constituents, cost is expensive.

Your kid has a gun and is out at 2:00 am in the morning.

Parents should be charged for being incompetent idiots.
Bingo

It’s an absolute clown show combined with zero discipline.

Camera footage cleared up that the Madison burn gal lied about her attack....changed nothing....she still shows up at rallies.

People run out in front of the media with all kinds of made up garbage and despite later evidence it takes on a life of it's own.

I don't think gangs and poverty are root causes, those are excuses.

It’s entitlement at its finest. They think they can do anything they want and make excuses for their own self inflicted actions.
