I see their Gun-Control legislation is completely ineffective.....surprise - criminals ignore laws!
Safari hunting is alive and well in America but everyone is scared to death to admit it.The thrill of killing a human being with the guarantee of not getting caught appeals to a select and very rich few.What better place to conduct business than where the typical homicide #s are so high that the app 25% which are safari kills simply blend in with the rest.
9:40 - I didn't know 'open-season' was declared. We could easily reduce the welfare rolls and food-stamp rolls - thereby cutting our expenditures to a more reasonable / maintainable level.
I'm all for it!
Obamas hometown. They probably all remind him of the son he never had.
I do mean the killers of course.
Not a single reporter - not one -- has, or will ever, ask hillary or obama that if their vaunted guns laws (Chicago is one of the strictest in the nation) are so good, why are there so many murders and shootings?
AND, if THOSE laws are so ineffective and worthless, please tell us why you think your NEW ideas will be any more effective?
They can't answer that any more than they can answer a myriad of other questions concerning their failures over the last 7 years.
Keep cheering.
Cant wait till Obama lives there.
