The Left will tell you the matter of the deadly crisis in Chicago is due to poor schools and lack of economic opportunity. Send more money. REALLY DUDE?
Meanwhile, Barack Obama is giving his farewell speech in his hometown of Chicago. Will he mention and of the crisis and murder in his beloved city? Nah…
Do you suppose they own those weapons legally? Hah…
A 2012 Chicago Police Department gang audit found there are more than 600 gang factions in the city, with a minimum combined membership of 70,000. As the number of gangs in the city increase, it’s difficult for gangs to control large areas. Instead, gangs cling to streets.
It seems too that under Mayor Daley and his public housing program propagated the issue beginning in 2006. Passing out money and entitlements was the beginning of the tailspin.

Gang warfare on streets of Chicago fueled by Sinaloa Cartel heroin

The following script is from “Crisis in Chicago,” which aired on Jan. 1, 2017. Bill Whitaker is the correspondent. Andrew Bast, Guy Campanile and Michael Radutzky, producers.The number of casualties in Chicago since last New Year’s Day has surged to a level more in line with a war zone than one of America’s great cities. More than 700 people were murdered. Over 4,000 shot. That’s more than Los Angeles and New York combined.
Gangs, guns and drugs have caused chaos in Chicago for years. But something new caught our attention. There’s been a drop in the kind of police work that law enforcement says is critical to preventing crime. Usually stops and arrests go up when violence is rising. So we went to Chicago to look for an explanation. What we found was a police department on its heels as the city suffered its worst bloodshed in 18 years.
In the six days we were in Chicago, 55 people were shot, 16 were killed. We were struck by just how routine it all felt. The dead and wounded were removed with grim efficiency — right down to the HAZMAT crews that cleaned away the blood. Murder seemed almost normal.
ifty-nine gangs are at war over territory and drugs on Chicago’s West and South Sides. But the makeshift memorials we saw, also mark places where people were killed in gang initiations or over petty insults. This gang member was taunting a rival on his phone live on the Internet when he was shot. Watch and you’ll see the gunman. More here.

Just last May of 2016, 2 FBI Agents Shot Serving Warrant Near Chicago, Suspect Found Dead
Two FBI officers were shot serving a warrant on Melvin Toran Tuesday. Toran (pictured) is a reputed leader of the Black P Stone Nation gang. He was found dead at the scene. (Photo: Illinois Department of Corrections)
Toran was a reputed high-ranking member of the Black P Stone Nation street gang, according to a federal law enforcement source. FBI agents had gone to the home in the south suburb of Chicago to arrest him on charges of narcotics trafficking, part of a gang sweep involving several other ranking members of the gang.****With Congress people like Bobby Rush or Luis Gutierrez, it is no wonder the truth is ignored.Democrat Rep. Luis Gutierrez, an illegal-immigration activist, proved he can’t handle the truth as he became completely unhinged when confronted with his own words by an immigration expert. Jessica Vaughan, director of policy studies at the Center for Immigration Studies, was testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday about the dangers of “sanctuary city” policies.
When Gutierrez took the floor he accused Vaughan of not being informed and said she was “exploiting” the murder of Kate Steinle, the young woman who was murdered by a 5-time-deported illegal criminal, to make a buck.
