Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s shameless scapegoat for rising shootings in Chicago

[rosejm]

I can't believe these morons keep voting thrash like this in office...

Serious question: When there's only one choice on the ballot, do you vote? For whom?

Lightfoot is a special kind of retarded... Didn't want federal aid while Trump was in office, but will be accepting federal aid now that Biden is in office...

She is claiming systemic racism, while only granting interviews to colored journalists....

I can't believe these morons keep voting thrash like this in office...

Uh I don't think they've used "colored" for several years now.

NPR gonna NPR.
Heard a news item this morning about the "illegal gun problem" in big cities, especially Chicago. Told us that 40% of these guns come from inside Illinois, mostly Chicago suburbs. 60% from out of state, blaming - you guessed it - Indiana. Especially one gun store around Gary. But not blaming NICS or lies on the 4473.

They actually mentioned straw buyers, and how they're (now) going to go after them seriously.

Yeah, right.

Was that one from NPR or a BBC segment rebroadcasted? I heard a 30 min show from the BBC on the same thing a few weeks ago. Was fairly fair considering..
