Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.



Chicago Tactics Put Major Dent in Killing Trend

CHICAGO — A year after this city drew new attention for soaring gun violence and gang bloodshed, creating a political test for Mayor Rahm Emanuel in President Obama’s hometown, Chicago has witnessed a drop in shootings and crime. Killings this year have dipped to a level not seen since the early 1960s.

So far in 2013, Chicago homicides, which outnumbered slayings in the larger cities of New York and Los Angeles last year, are down 34 percent from the same period in 2012.

The fruits of community organizing

AURAPTOR

Democrat dominated Chicago, home of Barack Hussein Obama, and all that community organizing, along w/ his former Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel now as mayor.

46 Hurt, 8 Killed in Violent Chicago Weekend ( Not recycling Memorial Day Weekend story )

AURAPTOR

I bet Eric Holder personally saw to it that the guns used were walked into the city, to be used by gang members.
