GANG CONTROL, NOT GUN CONTROL: MOBAMA AND LIBERAL SWELLS ATTEND HADIYA PENDLETON FUNERAL -- NOT OUT OF RESPECT, BUT TO USE HER DEATH FOR POLITICAL ACTIVISM
They arrived en masse – the liberal power brokers who control Chicago and greatly influence our nation’s public policy. Ostensibly to pay their respects to Hadiya Pendleton, a 15-year old innocent student killed Jan. 29 not all that far from the Obama family home; but all connected with the radical socialist gun control movement. First Lady Michelle Obama, Governor Pat Quinn, Mayor Rahm Emanuel, Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle, Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan, Reverend Jesse Jackson, Secretary of Education Arne Duncan, Father Michael Pfleger, and White House puppet-master Valerie Jarrett, senior adviser to Barack Obama.
But not a word about the real problem in Chicago – minority gang crime, the scourge which is fueling the gun deaths in our nation’s inner cities as is serving as the cause célèbre – Mayor Rahm Emanuel's crisis that should not be wasted and use for purposes of pushing extreme public policies -- for the international socialist movement to disarm America. According to police, Hadiya and the other bystanders with her had no gang ties, but characterized the event as a “gang-connected shooting” causing her death to become a symbol of Chicago's gun violence – not Chicago’s minority gang violence problem. Dishonest and disingenuous redefinition of the problem at hand for political purposes.
Bottom line …
The corrupt and dishonest democrats refuse to address the core issue: minority gang violence over drugs, turf and so-called gangsta respect which demands killing your opponents. These are the liberal activists who do not want to upset their Black and Hispanic (the two largest and most violent gang segments) voter base, nor trigger action (Mexico Style) against themselves. Even the democrat-friendly public employee unions appear to be secretly pushing back ideas that call for radical gang control lest they find that the unionized jobs in law enforcement, prisons and the lucrative attorney defense funds drying up. When you consider that “big justice” is a multi-billion dollar industry – as is “big welfare,” you can see where democrat (or even republican) politicians are loath to kill the golden goose.
Here is an innocent little girl being disrespected by the liberal activist swells who are also condemning more people to death by their refusal to deal with gang violence in America, not for a moment realizing that no amount of gun control will curb the crazies and the criminals. Witness the fact that Chicago, the murder capital of the nation, has some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation. Producing more victims in gun free zones like parks, schools and in the inner cities.
Rest in Peace Hadiya.
