A major American city is quickly being lost to guns, gangs, drugs and hopelessness, and political and business leaders are giving lip service to the problem. Yet while our politicians dither, the city’s Southside and Westside residents are living in perpetual fear, afraid to walk the streets. It’s time for Mayor Rahm Emanuel to put his ego and political ambitions aside. It’s time for him to ask the state police and the National Guard to come into Chicago and assist the police department in regaining control of the city’s streets.

They just need more gun control laws.

That wouldn't do anything. The violence rampant on Chicago's streets is a symptom, not the cause.

Guns have gotten too expensive and the poor have been priced out of ownership and therefore, their self defense capability.

We obviously need the Affordable Gun Act whereby every citizen will be required to buy a gun and those who can't afford it will be subsidized.

Maybe the UN can also deploy peace-keepers. Are the streets wide enough to accommodate tanks? This would be a boon.

If Chicago crumbles in that fashion, it'll be far sooner than 50 years.

If someone commits and act of violence against someone, the tool they use is a secondary concern. Sure, guns make carrying out the act of violence easier, but it is not the reason the act was carried out.

No one carries out an act of violence that would have not occurred to them had they not been carrying a gun.

Therefore, the core problem can never be the gun.

Liberals can't admit that though. Therefore, we all have to take part in the bullshite dance. God forbid the core issues that cause the problems ever be actually addressed.

How is this different from the boards fascist solution to "securing the border?" Again, it's using force to address a symptom to a problem. We might as well start using hammers to treat restless leg syndrome.

When will these idiots learn that more police and more laws aren't the answer?

You're right to laugh.

50 years is a ridiculously low estimate.
