The Chicago public school system has about 407,000 students in 666 schools. It is the nation’s third-largest school district and has been plagued by violence in recent years. During the 2007-2008 school year, at least 20 students were killed, including 18 by gunfire. The year before, more than 30 students were killed, again most by gun violence.
The Atlantic has a brief, but devastating piece on how business at one funeral home in Chicago is booming as a result of out-of-control violence in the city’s schools and neighborhoods.
You have it backwards, it did work, Obama and his ideas are to teach kids how to become aggressive, forceful and nasty so you can just take whatever others have from them.
Its call redistribution, something team ObamAcorn teaches their kids.
If someone has something you want, steal it from them because it your right to have it.
It might not be pretty, but it is how they organize their kids by teaching them how to act like this.
Just think, ObamAcorn sent his own kids to a church who taught this crap and allowed them to listen to one of their community leaders.
As I stated in other post, who would attend any Olympic games in Chicago in the first place. I try to avoid OHare Airport as much as I can because of the danger.
as you plant you will harvest, children are not born hating it is carefully cultivated in the home and community.
the most insidious teachings is its not revenge its only payback.

Wow!! You Republicans have no shame, politicizing a local tragic incident and attempting to link it to Obama.

Liberals want to keep minorities down and dependent on Govt. That is how they maintain control and get votes. Unfortunately, the Dems have completely failed to make any significant improvements in minority communities with respect to crime, drugs, education and economics. This is the typical Democrat way of maintaining power and control. And the kids suffer for it...
I'm not sure if it's a great political tactic to blame Obama for Chicago's violence. By that sort of transitive property, you'd end up blaming Bobby Jindal for the murder rate of New Orleans, or Sarah Palin for Alaska's above-average murder rate.

I'm sure that that won't waste their time rationalizing it though, blaming it on "the man"............
"The man" is now Obama, but these two leaders will take personal responsibility, in great contrast to "the man".
